PREPARING THE TOOL
1. After reading and understanding this entire manual, connect tool to
air supply (Fig. 18).
2. Orient a strip of approved fasteners with points down (A) Fig. 19, align,
and insert into the magazine “T” slot
points first.
Do not load fastener strip into magazine backwards.
3. Observe fastener icon (A) Fig. 20. Insert fasteners (B) Fig. 20 with points
down (C) Fig. 20. Slide fasteners forward to the front of the magazine. The
magazine will hold two full strips of fasteners.
IMPORTANT:
Fasteners must point in the same direction as they will be
driven.
4. Feed the strip of fasteners into the magazine (“T” slot), until they are past
the nail stop (A) Fig. 21.
5. Pull the follower (B) Fig. 21A, all the way to the rear of the magazine and
allow the follower (C) Fig. 21B to slide forward gently applying pressure to
the nail strips to feed the nails into the nail slot of the nose casting. Do not
allow the nail pusher to snap forward against the nail strips. This may
damage the nail collation and cause the nails to lodge in the nail slot of the
nose casting.
