Testing Firing
Mechanism
Continually firing nailer when empty
can cause internal damage. Only fire
empty nailer once or twice to ensure
it is functioning properly.
Point nailer at ground when con-
necting to air source. NEVER aim
in direction of another person or
body part.
The nailer should not fire when connected
to the air source unless it is fired by hitting
the head cap with the hammer. If the firing
mechanism is not working properly, the
nailer could fire immediately when con-
nected to the air source.
Before loading the nailer, check the firing
mechanism to ensure safe use.
To check firing mechanism:
1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM AIR
SOURCE!
2. Make sure magazine is empty and con-
tains no nails/staples.
3. Place flooring nailer on ground with
nailer guide plate facing down, then
connect air hose. The nailer should not
fire.
— If it does not fire, proceed to Step 4.
— If nailer does fire, immediately dis-
connect nailer from air source and
call (570) 546-9663 for Technical
Support.
4. Place nailer guide plate along edge
of a scrap piece of wood flooring that
is clean and free of any knots, nails,
or other foreign objects, and properly
secured.
Note: Nailer should sit flush along
square edge of scrap piece.
5. While holding handle with one hand,
strike head cap with included ham-
mer using moderate force. The nailer
should fire.
— If it does fire, then firing mecha-
nism is working properly. Test is
complete.
— If it does not fire, then firing mecha-
nism may not be working correctly or
may need service. Disconnect nailer
from air source and please call (570)
546-9663 for technical support.
