PREPARATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
CONNECTING TOOL TO THE AIR SUPPLY
WARNING:
Connect the air supply before loading fasteners. Make sure the nailer magazine is
empty when connecting to the air supply to prevent misfire. Never aim the tip of the nailer towards
yourself or others.
To connect your nailer to a properly installed compressed air supply:
1. Turn on the compressor on and set the regulator (Fig. 2 - Regulator) to the proper pressure within 70 to 120
PSI. The pressure can be adjusted later within this range, depending on firing depth, the length of nails and the
hardness of the workpiece.
2. Be sure the air hose is depressurized when installing or removing adapters to the air line. Connect the com-
pressed air hose to the inlet of your air compressor. Connect the other end of the air hose to the air inlet of the
nailer. The connections must click into place audibly. Use appropriate hose tape to prevent leaking.
3. Check the compressed air hoses and couplings to make sure there are no leaks. Lay the compressed air hoses
flat on the ground with sufficient length of spare hose in the work area.
To disconnect the tool from the air hose, pull back the ring on the quick connector to release the connection.
Repeat for disconnecting the air compressor from the air hose.
NON-MARRING TIP (Fig. 3)
The rubber non-marring tip (Fig. 5 - 1) is attached to your nailer’s
safety bracket to reduce marring and damage to your workpiece
during operation.
The non-marring tip can be removed from the safety bracket to
increase the driving accuracy and driving depth. It will also allow
better grip on the surface using the no-slip teeth. However, the
teeth may leave dents on your workpiece.
WARNING:
Disconnect tool from air supply before
removing or installing the non-marring tips. Fig. 3

To remove the non-marring tip, flip open the locking clip and slide the non-mar tip off the safety bracket. To
attach the non-marring tip, slide it onto the safety bracket and secure it with the locking clip.
