PREPARATIONS & ADJUSTMENTS
LUBRICATING THE TOOL
This tool requires lubrication before each use (especially the first use). If an inline oiler is used, manual lubrication
through the air inlet is not required. Proper lubrication is the owner’s responsibility. Failure to lubricate the tool
properly will dramatically shorten the life of the tool and void the warranty.
NOTE: The surface of the workpiece can be damaged by excessive lubrication.
1. Disconnect the tool from the air supply.
2. Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Place 4 – 5 drops of air tool oil into the air inlet.
3. Connect the tool to the air supply as instructed below. Load fasteners as instructed below. Fire the tool 3 – 4 times
into a piece of scrap wood to lubricate the internal parts of the tool. Wipe off any excess oil from the exhaust cap
and the air inlet.
CONNECTING THE TOOL TO AN AIR SUPPLY
Your tool should be connected to a properly installed compressed air supply. The working pressure of the air com-
pressor must be regulated to fit the operating pressure of your nailer (60 – 100 PSI). Refer to (Fig. 1) for the recom-
mended accessories and connection configuration.

WARNING! Make sure the nailer magazine is empty and the tip of the nailer is pointed away from you when
connecting to the air supply.
WARNING! Use only clean, dry, and regulated air. Do not use bottled gases to power this tool. There is a
risk of explosion, and serious personal injury may result. Do not operate when the air pressure is outside of the
recommended range (60 to 100 PSI).
