Make sure there is no fastener in
magazine before clearing a jam.
WARNING:
!
Disconnect the tool from the air source
whenever clearing a jam. After
disconnecting the tool from the air
compressor, there should still be enough
air pressure to fire the tool. After the air
hose is disconnected, always fire the tool
into scrap wood repeatedly to make sure
all of the compressed air is expended.
WARNING:
!
SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE
The amount of air pressure required depends on
the size of the fasteners and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail
into the same type of workpiece material used for
the actual job. Drive a test fastener with the air
pressure set at 90 - 95 psi. Raise or lower the air
pressure to find the lowest setting that will perform
the job with consistent results.
It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with
air pressure adjustments alone.
MAINTENANCE
Each tool is packed with an anti-dust cap on the air
connector.
Keep the anti-dust cap cover on the air connector
when the tool is not in use.

CLEARING JAMS
Disconnect the tool from air source.
Pull back the inner magazine(C), and remove
the jammed fastener from the nose(D).
Reconnect the tool to the air source.
Reload the tool with fasteners.
Occasionally, a fastener may become jammed in
the firing mechanism of the tool, making the tool
inoperable. To remove a jammed fastener, follow
the steps below:

Always know the operational mode of the
tool before using. Failure to know the
operational mode could result in death or
serious personal injury.
An improperly functioning tool must not
be used. Do not actuate the tool unless the
tool is placed firmly against the work
place.

Any time inspection, maintenance, and
cleaning are done:
Disconnect the tool from the air source.
Empty the magazine completely.
FIRING THE TOOL(SINGLE MODE)
Disconnect the tool from the air source.
Rotate the safety switch (H) from center safety
position to the left or right side of trigger.

Safety switch
Do not at any time let brake fluids,
gasoline, petroleum-based products,
penetration oils, ect. come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage,
weaken or destroy plastic parts which,
may result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
!
LUBRICATION
Lubricate tool only with specified
lubricants.
CAUTION:
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to damage from
various types of commercial solvents and maybe
damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove
dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
CLEANING
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required
for best performance. Oil for the tool added through
the air line connection and will lubricate the internal
parts. Do not detergent oil or additives as these
lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals
and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool
performance and frequent tool maintenance.
Do not store tools in a cold weather
environment to prevent frost or ice
formation on the tool's operating valves
and mechanisms that could cause tool
failure.
CAUTION:
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
For cold weather operation, near and below
freezing, the moisture in the air line may freeze and
prevent tool operation. We recommend the use of
air tool lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene
glycol) as a cold weather lubricant.

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
The air compressor must be able to maintain a
minimum of 60 psi when the tool is being used.
An inadequate air supply can cause a loss of
power and inconsistent driving.
An oiler can be used to provide oil circulation
through the tool. A filter can be used to remove
liquid and solid impurities which can rust or gum
up internal parts of the tool.
Use a pressure regulator on the compressor,
with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 psi. A
pressure regulator is required to control the
operating pressure of the tool between 60 and
100 psi.
Always use air supply hoses with a minimum
working pressure rating equal to or greater than
the pressure from the power source if a
regulator fails, or 150 psi, whichever is greater.
Use 3/8" air hose for runs up to 50' and 3/8"
quick coupler on the air hose.

WARNING:
!
Do not connect with an air compressor
which can potentially exceed 200 psi. As
tool may burst, possibly causing injury.
Connect the tool to the air source.
Grip the tool firmly to maintain control. Position
the nose of the tool onto the work surface.
Squeeze the trigger to drive a fastener.
Turn the safety switch (H) back to center safety
position when not using the tool.
