OPERATION

LOADING THE FASTENERS

Caution: 

Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before loading the nailers. 

1. Pull feeder shoe all the way to the rear of the magazine until it is locked by the lock tab.
2. Insert a strip of nails into the rear of the magazine. Do not load while contacting a workpiece or pressing the 
trigger.
3. Pull the feeder shoe and press the lock tab to unlock the feeder shoe. The feeder shoe will slide forward and 
hold the nails in place.

OPERATING AIR PRESSURE: 

70-120 psi 

Select the operating air pressure within this range for best tool performance.

DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.

WARNING - if any parts are missing, do not operate this tool until the missing parts are replaced. 
Failure to do so could result in a possibly serious personal injury.

LUBRICATION

This tool requires lubrication before each use (especially the first use). If an inline oiler is used, manual lubrica-
tion through the air inlet is not required.

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

1. Disconnect the air supply from the tool to add lubricant.
2. Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Place 4-5 drops of 30W non-detergent oil (included) into the air inlet.
3. After adding oil, run toll briefly. Wipe off any excess oil from the exhaust.

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP

Your air tool is fully assembly 
when you receive it. Before using 
it, attach the air line and desired 
air system accessories. See the 
diagram on the right for the recom-
mended accessories and connec-
tion order. Be sure the air hose is 
depressurized when installing or 
removing adapters to the air line.
