PREPARATION & ADJUSTMENTS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of misfiring, 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.

STEP 3: CONNECTING TOOL TO THE AIR SUPPLY
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 (around 95 PSI is recommended for general use). Start by setting a lower pressure, and the pressure can
be adjusted later depending on firing depth, the length of nails and the hardness of the workpiece.
2. Make sure the air hose is depressurized when installing or removing adapters to the air line. Connect the
compressed 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.
