Fuel Cartridge Check
DANGER
Wear safety glasses when performing this test. Never
perform this test near an open flame or sparks, while
smoking, or where the fuel may get into your eyes.
If fuel is not released with each operation of the metering
valve, this indicates that there is no more fuel left in the
cylinder and it must be replaced. Dispose of the empty fuel
cartridge.
(see page 11.)
Battery Check
DANGER
Never attempt any maintenance of a Paslode Cordless
tool without first removing the fuel cell and battery.
Maintenance should be started only after the tool is
completely inoperative.
CHECKING THE ENERGY LEVEL OF THE
BATTERY
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
Attempts to go beyond these procedures could result in
serious personal injury or damage to the Cordless Nailer
and voiding the warranty.
There are certain problems you may encounter when
you are using the Cordless Nailer that you will be able to
correct on the work site. The following field service
procedures are the only service procedures you should
attempt. Anything else that may appear wrong with the
Cordless Nailer should only be diagnosed and repaired
by a fully trained service technician. If you have any
reason to believe that your problem is beyond the
service procedures in this manual, contact your
Paslode
®
representative immediately.
If the Cordless Nailer’s fan operates and the indicator
light is green, but the tool will not cycle or does not drive
fasteners completely, check the fuel cartridge. With the
fuel cartridge out of the tool, check to see if the cartridge
still contains fuel and that the metering valve is working.
To determine if there is any fuel left in the fuel cartridge,
hold in the upright position and simply place the metering
stem against a solid object, and gently push about three
or four times. A small amount of fuel should be released
each time.
Periodically check on the battery indicator light (the light
in the handle) of the Cordless Nailer. When encountering
a problem, the first step should always be to make sure
the battery has enough charge to operate the tool.
When the Nail Hole Locating Probe is depressed on the
work piece, the fan motor will turn on and the blinking
green indicator light will turn solid green. If the indicator
light blinks red or glows red, recharge the battery.
