DESCRIPTION 

The GypFast tool is a self-contained, fully portable 
tool that uses liquid hydrocarbon fuel to power a 
unique linear drive internal combustion motor . 

In order for you to fully understand the information  
contained in this manual, you need a basic under-
standing of the tool . As you can see in the illustration  
below, the GypFast tool is made up of three 
assemblies: the Handle, the Motor, and the 
Magazine . 

As you examine the GypFast tool, become familiar 
with the three major assemblies and the various 
components located in each of them . 

The Handle Assembly contains the Fuel Cell, the 
Battery Voltage Indicator Light, Battery and the 
Trigger . 

The Motor Assembly contains the Cover and Filter, 
the Motor Housing, the Nose, and the Safety Yoke . 

The Magazine Assembly contains the Magazine, 
Magazine Dow and Hinge Pin .
