• Add one/two drops of high speed oil (non detergent) for air tools into the air inlet.
• Install a quick connect fitting to the nailer.
• Connect the nailer to an air compressor using a 3/8” I.D. hose. Make sure the magazine does not
contain any nails and that the air hose has a rated working pressure exceeding 200 PSI and a female
quick coupler.
• Regulate the air pressure to obtain 85 PSI. Check the operation of the contact safety trip mechanism
following the instructions in this manual.
• Load magazine with nails following the instructions in this manual.
• Reconnect the air hose to the nailer air inlet.
• Test for proper nail penetration by driving nails into scrap wood. If the nails do not achieve the desired
penetration, regulate the air pressure to a higher setting until the desired penetration is achieved. Do
not exceed 120 PSI (Operating pressure 60-100 PSI).
