MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
5
1.
Clean and lubricate the tool as recommended in the Instruction
Manual.
PROPER MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE OF POWDER ACTUATED
TOOLS IS NECESSARY TO ENSURE CONSISTENT, TROUBLE-FREE
OPERATION AND HELP PREVENT INJURY.
2.
Check tools prior to each day's use to ensure they are in proper
working order.
5.
Powder actuated tools and cartridges shall be locked in a container
and stored in a safe place when not in use. Only authorized
personnel, trained to use the tool, should have access.
4.
Any tool found not in working order should be immediately removed
from service, tagged as "defective" and used again only after being
repaired by a qualified individual. Use only repair/replacement
parts recommended by the tool manufacturer.
3.
Replace worn or damaged parts as required.
OPERATION
IMPORTANT: To make successive fastenings,always insert the fastener
before advancing magazine as in illustrations 1 & 2. Overdriving due to
using too strong a cartridge, too short a fastener, or too little resistance in
the base material can result in deformation of the shear clip. If this should
occur, the shear clip must be replaced. Always completely remove
the magazine before disassembly or cleaning of the tool. The magazine
must always be removed from the top of the tool - never from the
handgrip. Your LV365 must always be unloaded before:
- changing any parts (piston, piston sleeve, etc.)
- taking a work break - servicing and cleaning
- storing at the end of the work day.
After removing each magazine, the breech must be inspected for foreign
particles.
1.
With the point out, insert fastener into the guide until it is held in place
by the plastic washer.
2.
In one movement, pull out the baseplate and piston sleeve to the
stop, then push back again to the stop.
2a. If the movement is stiff, lightly spray the outer surface of the piston
sleeve with lubricant and slide in and out several times.
3. Insert the magazine into the base of the handgrip. Slide the magazine
upwards until it is flush with the bottom of the grip. Always insert
magazine from the bottom of the tool.
4. Press tool firmly and squarely against the work surface and squeeze
trigger.
NOTE:
Tool must be perpendicular to work surface for best fastening
results.
