DANGER!
Potential hazard that will result in serious injury or
loss of life.
• Disconnect the tool from the air compressor before
performing maintenance service, adjusting, clearing jams,

• Repairs must be performed by a qualified service
technician only. Failure to comply will lead to serious
injury or loss of life.
• Verify that the compressor tanks have been properly drained
prior to use.
• Keep the tool as warm as possible using any safe, convenient
method.
• Place up to 6 drops of pneumatic tool oil into the tool’s air inlet.
• Maintain the operating level of the air pressure as
recommended (see section “Technical Specifications”).
• Load the nails into the magazine (if required).
• Actuate the tool 5 to 6 times into a scrap wooden piece in
order to lubricate the O-rings.
• Adjust the pressure up to the operating level (do not exceed
120 PSI) and use the tool normally.
• Relubricate the tool, as described in the maintenance section.
• Drain the compressor tanks at least once per day.

Lubrication:
If the Air-powered Brad Nailer and the
compressor are not equipped with an in-line
lubrication system, place up to 6 drops of
pneumatic tool oil into the air inlet before each
work day or after every 2 hours of continuous use,
depending on the characteristics of the workpiece
and type of fasteners used.
• Air-operated tools must be inspected periodically and worn or
broken parts must be replaced in order to keep tools operating
safely and efficiently.
• Inspect and replace worn or damaged O-rings, seals, etc. Tighten
all screws and caps frequently in order to help prevent personal
injury.
• Inspect the trigger, spring, and safety mechanism for free
movement on a regular basis in order to ensure that the safety
system is fully functional. Verify that no parts are loose or missing
and no parts are sticking or jammed.
• Keep the magazine and the safety stand of the tool clean and free
of any dirt or abrasive particles.
