METHODS OF OPERATION
The Sequential Triggering system gets its name from the
"sequence" required to drive a fastener.
First, be sure the position and place the tip of the nail
into the metal connectors preformed hole.(FIG 15)
Keep the tool vertically when driving.
Don't push the tool forward when positioning the first
nail in metal hole. (FIG 16)
Then hold the moveable nose fully against the work
surface, then pull the trigger.
To drive a second nail the operator must lift the tool
from the work surface, release the trigger and then repeat
the above sequence.

3).
Always handle nails and package carefully. If nails are
dropped, collating bent may be broken, which will cause
mis-feeding and jamming.
After nailing:
1).Disconnect air hose from the tool.
2).Remove all nails from the tool.
3).Supply 5-10 drops of pneumatic tool lubricant into
the air plug on the tool.
4).Open the petcock on the air compressor tank to drain
any moisture.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
When using the tool in cold conditions the tool will cycle
slower than usual while driving the first nails. The cycle rate
will increase as the tool warms up. Keep tool warm to avoid
reduced cycle rate.
DO NOT USE A FROZEN TOOL.
Allow tool to thaw before
using. Moisture frozen in the tool may impede internal
components resulting in the risk of injury and/or tool
damage.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury from fasteners and flying debris

ADJUSTING THE EXHAUST
The adjustable exhaust on the cap of the tool allows users to
direct the exhaust according to operator preference. To
adjust the direction, turn the exhaust cap in the desired
direction.

FIG. 16
Use the recommended type metal connector nails.
Use only one stick of metal connector nails at a time.
Metal connector nails are not designed to penetrated
metal. When installing metal connectors, always place
the exposed point of the metal connector nail into the
metal connector's pre-formed hole and orients, so the
nail is perpendicular to the hole before attempting to
drive a fastener.
