D60 POWER LEVEL
ADJUSTMENT

The power level of the D60 tool may be
adjusted for varying materials by
changing the length of the barrel.
Extending the barrel length reduces the
driving power and shortening the length
increases the driving power. The D60
tool utilizes a “quick release” pawl
design to easily change power levels.

1. To change the power level, pull the

plastic cap on the pawl rearward and
twist it 1/4 turn to lock the pawl in the
released position.

2. Pull the barrel out until the load

chamber assembly ball bearing
retainer is visible in the slot in the
rear of the receiver. Note the position
of the rings on the rear barrel. When
the power adjustment feature is not
being used, the barrel should be
screwed all the way in.

3. Adjust the length of the barrel for the

power level required by screwing the
barrel either in or out. To increase
driving power screw the barrel in and
to decrease driving power screw the
barrel outward. Do not unscrew the
barrel out past the outer power level
ring.

4. When using the power adjustment

feature with the 4D60 power level
load, the power adjustment must be
at the lowest power level for initial
testing to determine the power level
needed for best fastening quality.

5. Push the barrel back in after

adjusting and secure the pawl by
pulling the plastic cap and turning it
1/4 turn and then release it.

Always make the first test firing using
the # 2 (Brown) load first then use
succeeding higher power levels if
needed until the fastener is fully set.
