1. Pull the magazine spring latch down,
then swing the magazine door
completely open.
2. Insert a strip of 10 pins into the back
to the magazine.
Note the PTP-27AMGR is designed
for no more than 10 pins.
3. Close the magazine door making sure
the spring latch is locked.
Never place your hand over the nose of the tool unless inserting a fastener

4. Select the proper strip powder load for
the application. With the metal casing
pointing toward the front of the tool,
insert the strip through the bottom of
the handle until the bottom of the strip is
flush with the bottom of the tool handle.

to ¼ down from full power. To lower the power output, turn the
thumb wheel until the dial indicator moves toward the “–” sign. Note: Only use
the power regulator to reduce power by less than 1 powder load level. Using a red
powder load to achieve a yellow or green powder load output is not a good use of
the power regulator since doing this will shorten the life of the power regulator and
other components of the tool. Even if you dial the power down, if you use a red
powder load (high power load level), the tool still has to absorb the excess energy.
5. Dial the power regulator to full power.
The power regulator is a tool feature that
allows the user to lower the power output.
The ideal use of the power regulator is
to achieve power output that is between
powder load levels. Example: If a red
powder load delivers too much power and
a yellow powder load delivers too little
power for the application, use a
red powder load, then dial the power
