DANGER:
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases
as a power source for this tool. The tool will explode and
cause death or serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless.
Remember that a careless fraction of a second is suf-
ficient to inflict severe injury.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before leaving the
work area, moving the tool to another location, or handing
the tool to another person. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
APPLICATIONS
You may use this tool for the purposes listed below:
Light wood assembly
Finish and trim work
Decorative moldings
Picture frame assemblies
Joint and dowel pinning
Window beading crafts
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection. Eye protection does not fit
all operators in the same way. Make sure the eye protec-
tion chosen has side shields or provides protection from
flying debris both from the front and sides.
PREPARING THE TOOL FOR USE
See Figure 1, page 12.
Under normal use conditions, the tool should be lubricated
before connecting the tool to an air supply. Add air tool oil
into the quick-connect air fitting once daily with minimal use,
or twice a day with heavy use. Only a few drops of oil at a
time is necessary. Too much oil will only collect inside the
tool and will be noticeable in the exhaust cycle.
Before connecting the tool, check the air compressor
gauge to be sure it is functioning within the proper range of
70-120 psi.
OPERATION
NO-MAR PAD
See Figure 2, page 12.
The no-mar pad attached to the nose of the tool helps prevent
marring and denting when working with softer woods.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before removing
or replacing the no-mar pad. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
The no-mar pad for the headless pinner can be removed by
pulling it away from the nose of the tool. To replace the pad,
fit it into place over the nose.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before leaving the
work area, moving the tool to another location, or handing
the tool to another person. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
CONNECTING THE TOOL TO AN AIR SUPPLY
See Figure 3, page 12.
WARNING:
The tool’s driving mechanism may cycle when the tool
is first connected to the air supply. Always connect the
tool to the air supply before loading fasteners to prevent
injury from unintended cycling. Always make sure the
tool’s magazine is empty at the beginning of each work
session, before connecting to an air supply.
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry compressed
air at regulated pressures between 70 and 120 psi . The cor-
rect air pressure is the lowest pressure that will do the job.
NOTE:
Air pressure that is higher than 120 psi may damage
the tool.
The tool and air hose must have an air fitting that allows all
pressure to be discharged from the tool when the female
connector is disconnected.
WARNING:
Always use an air fitting that discharges all the com-
pressed air in the tool at the time the fitting or female
quick connector is disconnected. Using an air fitting
that does not discharge the compressed air could cause
unintended operation and serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not climb rigging or scaffolding while carrying a tool
that is connected to an air hose. Doing so could result in
serious personal injury.
