Paslode Cordless Roofing Nailer Operation
DANGER
The work contacting element and nose will become hot
after prolonged or rapid use.
This tool must be operated in a well ventilated
environment, because the tool exhausts carbon
monoxide similar to a chainsaw or lawn mower.
Exposure to carbon monoxide may cause dizziness,
nausea or unconsciousness.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION
Fuel cartridges at cold temperatures lose the
required propellant pressure. Bring the tool, fuel
cartridge, and battery above 45 F (7.2°C) by placing
°
the tool in a heated building or vehicle. Never expose
the tool, fuel cartridge or battery to flame.
If the tool cannot be warmed to 45°F (7.2°C) or greater,
follow the below steps until the tool reaches it’s normal
operational range.
Warm the fuel cartridge by placing it in an inside pocket
of your jacket for several minutes.
It will be necessary to repeat this procedure several
times until the temperature of the tool warms up enough
to operate in it’s normal mode.
Once the tool reaches operational temperature the tool
will generate it’s own heat and will function normally.
If the tool sits for an for an extended period of time and
cools down it may be necessary to repeat these steps.
CAUTION
The Cordless Roofing Nailer should not be used
in the rain or where excessive moisture is present.
The use of the Paslode Cordless Technology under
these conditions may result in damage to tool
components and cause the tool to malfunction.
The Cordless Roofing Nailer requires cooling of
the motor assembly to operate properly. The fan
normally provides the necessary air flow to permit
continuous operation. Whenever the Cordless Roof-
ing Nailer is idle for extended periods, keep the fuel
and tool out of direct sunlight and in surroundings
where temperatures will not exceed 120°F (49°C).
After extended periods of continuous use, it may be
necessary to cool the Impulse motor by setting tool
aside for 10-15 minutes or until the tool operates
normally. An overheated tool may not drive nails
completely or may operate erratically.
Use the Cordless Roofing Nailer outdoors, in dry
weather, when the nailer, fuel cartridge, and battery
are between 45°F (7.2°C) and 110°F (42.3°C).
