LUBRICATION

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.

Note:  The work surface can become damaged by excessive lubrication. 
Proper lubrication is the owner’s responsibility. Failure to lubricate the 
tool properly will dramatically shorten the life of the tool and void the war-
ranty.

1. Disconnect the air supply from the tool to add lubricant.

2. Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Place 2 drops of oil into the 
air inlet (Fig. 2).

3. After adding oil, briefly run the tool. Wipe off any excess oil from the 
exhaust.

CONNECTING THE TOOL TO AN AIR SUPPLY

NOTE: Never aim the tip of the nailer towards yourself or others. Do not 
operate when the air pressure is outside of the recommended range (60 to 
100 PSI). Make sure magazine is empty when connecting to air supply.

1. Determine if the tool needs oil and, if necessary, place two drops of oil 
in the air inlet (Fig. 2 - 1) as outlined above in the Lubrication section.

2. Turn the compressor on and set the Regulator (Fig. 1 - Regulator) to 
the proper pressure according to the size and type of fastener being used. 
The air pressure range should be within 60 PSI to 100 PSI.

3. Connect the tool to the air supply (Fig. 1).

LOADING THE FASTENERS (Fig. 3)

NOTE: Always load the fasteners after connecting the tool to its air sup-
ply. Otherwise, unwanted misfires may occur during connection. Never 
aim the tip towards yourself or others.

(Figure 3 - 2) and pull the magazine out fully.

2. Place a full clip of the specified type and size fasteners on the Fixed Magazine (Fig. 3 - 3), 100 fasteners may 
be loaded in the magazine.

3. Push the Movable Magazine Assembly (Fig. 3 - 2) forward until it is locked.

ADJUSTING THE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT WHEEL

Use the Depth Adjustment Wheel (Fig. 4) found directly underneath the trigger to adjust the depth of the fired 
nails. Turn the wheel to the left for deeper nails, or turn to the right for shallower nails.
