ENGLISH
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, eficient stapling operation.
With an air pressure of 0.49 MPa (4.9 bar), an air hose
with an internal diameter of over 6.5 mm and a length
of less than 20 m is recommended when the interval
between each stapling is 0.5 seconds.
Air supply hoses shall have a minimum working pres-
sure rating of 1.03 MPa (10.3 bar) or 150 percent of the
maximum pressure produced in the system whichever
is higher.
Lubrication
To insure maximum performance, install an air set (oiler,
regulator, air ilter) as close as possible to the tool.
Adjust the oiler so that one drop of oil will be provided
for every 50 staples.
When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic
tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air
itting. This should be done before and after use.
For proper lubrication, the tool must be ired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.

FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Before adjusting or checking
function on the tool, always return the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the tool.

Adjuster
To adjust the depth of stapling, turn the adjuster.
The depth of stapling is the deepest when the adjuster
is turned fully in the A direction shown in the igure. It will
become shallower as the adjuster is turned in the B direction.
If staples cannot be driven deep enough even when the
adjuster is turned fully in the A direction, increase the
air pressure.
If staples are driven too deep even when the adjuster is
turned fully in the B direction, decrease the air pressure.
Generally speaking, the tool service life will be longer
when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the
adjuster set to deeper depth of staple driving.
Hook
CAUTION:
Never hook the tool at high loca-
tion or on potentially unstable surface.
CAUTION:
Do not hang the hook from the
waist belt.
If the stapler accidentally drops, it may
result in misiring and personal injuries.

Hook
The hook is convenient for hanging the tool temporarily.
