connector, check it after unpacking. Keep the anti-
dust cap to cover the air connector when the tool is
not in use to prevent debris from entering the tool.
ANTI-DUST
Lubricate tool only with specified
lubricants.
CAUTION:
LUBRICATION
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required
for best performance. Oil for the tool added through
the air line connection add will lubricate the internal
parts. Do not detergent oil or additives as these
lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals
and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool
performance and frequent tool maintenance.
Disconnect the air supply from the tool to add
lubricant.
⒈
Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Place
2-3 drops of pneumatic fastening tool oil into air
inlet. Do not use detergent oils, oil additives, or
air-tool oils as these lubricants will cause
accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in
the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and
frequent tool maintenance.

After adding oil, run tool briefly. Wipe off any
excess oil from the cap exhaust.
