Checking the safety yoke
WARNING:
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment or
maintenance is carried out.
• Ensure that there are no fasteners in the magazine
• The Safety Yoke (6) should move in and out with no obstruction
• Test the safety yoke is operating correctly as follows:
1. Connect the tool to the air supply
2. Push the Safety Yoke (6) against a piece of wood without pulling the Trigger (1). The
tool should not fire. If the tool fires, it must be repaired before further use
3. Hold the tool away from the piece of wood. The Safety Yoke (6) should return to the
original position
4. Pull the Trigger (1). The tool should not fire. If the tool fires, it must be repaired before
any further use
5. Push the Safety Yoke (6) against the piece of wood, but this time pull the Trigger (1).
The tool should fire. This indicates normal operation
Loading the magazine
WARNING:
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any loading, adjustment,
or maintenance is carried out.
WARNING:
Only use compatible fasteners as specified in ‘Specifications’.
1. Open the Magazine Latch (4) and open the Magazine Cover (5)
2. Insert fasteners into the magazine, ensuring the point of the fastener is facing
forward (away from the handle of the tool)
• To load with staples, place the strip of staples over the cartridge guide, as shown in
Fig A
• To load with nails, place the strip of nails alongside the cartridge guide, as shown in
Fig B
3. Close the magazine cover until the magazine latch (4) is fully secured
Intended Use
Fastener driving tool, powered by compressed air from a compressor, for driving nails and
staples into wood.
Operation
WARNING:
Ensure your compressed air supply operates within the pressure range stated
in “Specifications”.
Firing Trigger
• To operate the nailer, press the Safety Yoke (6) against the material. Holding the nailer
firmly by its handle, squeeze the Trigger (1) to fire the nail into the material
WARNING:
Rapidly pressing the firing trigger could cause internal damage and may
invalidate the guarantee.
Exhaust
• Rotate the Exhaust Direction Dial (9) to direct the exhaust air away from the operator
Nail depth adjustment
IMPORTANT:
Always test how far the fastener will penetrate the wood.
1. Fire a test nail into a piece of scrap material and examine the penetration depth of
the nail
2. If necessary, adjust the air supply pressure to change the nail penetration depth:
reducing the air supply pressure will reduce the depth that the nail penetrates.
Clearing jams
WARNING:
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment or
maintenance is carried out.
Nail or staple jammed in Magazine
1. Open the Magazine Latch (4) and the Magazine Cover (5)

• If the tool stops working or only works intermittently, pour approximately 1.5ml of
lubricating oil into the Air Inlet (2), and connect to air supply. Operate the tool in short
bursts. If this does not free the tool mechanism, have the tool serviced at an authorised
Silverline service centre
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children
Disposal
• As with other power tools, air tools should not be disposed of with household waste
