Dry off the tool before use. Any oil film left after cleanup
will accelerate the tar buildup, and the tool will require
more frequent recleaning. After drying off the tool, oil the
moving parts to prevent rusting and to assure good
lubrication and operation or moving parts. Install the
contact element on the driver guide. Press the knob
toward the nose tip and turn the knob clockwise to
secure.
WARNING:
•
Never use gasoline or other similar highly volatile
liquids for cleaning. Vapors of such liquids may
enter the tool and could be ignited by sparks
produced during nailing and cause an explosion.
Maintenance of nailer
Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose
screws before operation. Tighten as required.

the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight
and/or humid or hot environment.

Fig.20
After operation, always drain the compressor tank and
the air filter. If moisture is allowed to enter the tool, It
may result in poor performance and possible tool failure.
Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic oil
in the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient
lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly.
Fig.21
Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over
140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or
alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which
it may become dangerously caught on during operation.
Hoses must also be directed away from sharp edges
and areas which may lead to damage or abrasion to the
hose.
