Operation
Air Pressure and Air Volume
Operate the air stapler & nailer with a pressure of approx. 6 bar (90 psi).
Exceeding the max. permitted pressure level of 8 bar will significantly
reduce the lifetime of the tool.
Only use air hoses with an inner diameter of at least 9 mm. When
setting up the air pressure, always keep in mind that the pressure will
decrease by approx. 0.6 bar when using a 10 m long hose with an inner
diameter of 9 mm.
Clearing jammed Staples or Nails
1. Disconnect the air tool from the compressed air
supply and remove all staples or nails which are
not jammed in place from the magazine.
2. Use a 3 mm Allen key (not included) to remove the
two screws from the mounting plate at the tool
head (see figure
d
).
3. Remove the mounting plate from its base and
remove jammed nails or staples from the unit. If
necessary, carefully use pliers for removing.
4. Use the two screws to reassemble the mounting
plate.
Maintenance and Care
To ensure proper functionality and a long lifetime, diligent lubrication
and maintenance are essential.
For operating pneumatic tools clean air is required. Corrosion residues,
dust and dirt from the pneumatic pipes reduce the efficiency of the tool
and will cause technical problems. An upstream maintenance unit
consisting of filter, pressure regulator valve and lubricating equipment
removes moisture and dirt from the air, controls the working pressure
and supplies the tool perfectly with lubricating oil.
If necessary, clean the unit with a moist cloth.
Do not use abrasive or aggressive chemicals as benzene or thinner,
which may dissolve plastic parts.
Do not allow liquids to enter the unit and never immerse it into liquids.
Water in the compressed air inlet can damage the machine. Therefore it
is recommended to drain the air lines and the compressor regularly! The
air filters should be cleaned at least once a week.
