INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1.
WARNING! Make sure that the tool is unplugged from the air supply before
performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
2.
BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged
air hose, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal
noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not
use damaged equipment.
3.
Inspect the air supply screen located in the Air Inlet (72) before each use and re-
place as needed. Dirt and water in the air supply screen are primary causes of
pneumatic tool wear. Use a filter in the compressed air system for better perfor-
mance and longer tool life. The filter must provide adequate flow capacity for the
given application.
4.
Clean the external parts of the Brad Nailer with a clean cloth and mild detergent.
5.
When storing, lock the Brad Nailer in a clean, dry location, safely out of the reach
of children.

All maintenance, service or repairs not listed in this manual should only be completed
