WARNING! The declared vibration total values and
the declared noise emission values given in this instruction
manual have been measured in accordance with a
standardised test and may be used to compare one tool with
another. They may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission values represent
the main applications of the tool. However, if the tool is used
for different applications, used with different accessories,
or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission
may differ. These conditions may significantly increase the
exposure levels over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise
should take into account the times when the tool is turned off
or when it is running idle. These conditions may significantly
reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration and noise, such as maintaining
the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm (in
case of vibration), and organising work patterns.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION

Replenish the nails.
Remove the battery and clear the debris.
Product operates properly, but fasteners
are not driven fully.
Air pressure is too low.
Depth of drive is not deep enough.
Nail is too long for wood hardness.
Increase the air pressure.
Adjust the depth of drive.
Use nails of the length that is appropriate for
the wood.
Product operates properly, but fasteners
are driven too deep.
Air pressure is too high.
Depth of drive is too deep.
Decrease the air pressure.
Adjust the depth of drive.
Product jams frequently. Nails are incorrect.
Nails are damaged.
Magazine is loose.
Magazine is dirty.
Verify that the size of nails is correct.
Replace the nails.
Tighten the screws.
Clean the magazine.
Product stops and LED work lights flash
rapidly.

centre.
Product operates properly, but fasteners
are not driven fully.
Product is too cold (less than 5°C). Warm the product up to the operating
temperature, either by storing in the correct
environment or by firing test shots into spare
material.
Product does not operate. Nail magazine is empty/very low. Refill the magazine.
Product does not operate. Nailing process has been interrupted (by
releasing the trigger mid-way through the
process).
Remove the battery and replace to reset the
system.

held for too long without activating the nail
firing process.
Release the trigger then activate again.
