IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The RONA Model RFNS-001 is a heavy duty pneumatic framing nailer with a lightweight
magnesium housing. This tool is designed to install framing nails of various lengths
(2-3/16” to 3-9/16” / 55 mm to 89 mm long.) with a fastener collation angle of 28 to 30
degrees including clip head nails like 28 degree Bostitch, Hitachi, & 30 degree Paslode &
Duofast nails.
AIR SOURCE
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air at regulated pressures
between 70 and 120 PSI (pounds per square inch.) The preferred system would include
a filter (C), a pressure regulator (A), and automatic oiler (B) located as close to the tool
as possible. (Within 15 feet is ideal). All compressed air contains moisture and other
contaminates that are detrimental to internal components of the tool. An airline filter will
remove most of these contaminates and significantly increase the life of the tool. If an
in-line oiler is not available: place 2 or 3 drops of oil into the tool’s air inlet at the beginning
of each workday.
CAUTION:
All line components (hoses, connectors, filters, regulators, etc.) must meet 150% of
the maximum system pressure. Please try to use a hose of ID 3/8” connecting nailer
with compressor.
Do not connect this tool to a system with maximum potential pressure greater than
180 PSI, (12.3 BAR)
Disconnect your air line from your nailer using the quick connect on the air hose. Do
not unscrew the air inlet from the nailer with your air hose connected.
Disconnect tool from air supply before performing maintenance clearing a jammed
fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another location, or handing the tool to
another person.
PREPARING THE TOOL
1. After reading and understanding this entire manual, connect tool to the air supply.
CAUTION:
Keep tool pointed away from yourself and others at all times.
Always disconnect tool to air supply before loading fasteners.
Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety pressed.
Always wear approved safety glasses, and hearing protection when preparing or
operating the tool.
