HOT WEATHER OPERATION
Tool should operate normally. However, keep tool out of direct sunlight as
excessive heat can deteriorate bumpers, O-rings and other rubber parts resulting
in increased maintenance.
MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect air line from tool and remove fasteners
from magazine before making adjustments or personal injury may result.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CHART
ACTION
WHY
HOW
Lubricate tool with
5-7 drops of
non-detergent
SAE 20 weight
pneumatic tool oil.
Prevents failure
of o-rings.
Insert drops into air fitting
on end cap of tool.
Drain compressor
tanks and hoses daily
or after each use.
Prevents accumulation
of moisture in
compressor and nailer.
Open petcocks or other drain
valves on compressor tanks.
Allow any accumulated
water to drain from hoses.
Clean canister, feed
piston area and contact
trip mechanism.
Permits smooth
operation of magazine,
reduces wear and
prevents jams.
Blow clean with compressor
air. The use of oils, lubricants
periodically or solvents is
not recommended as they
tend to attract debris.
Before each use, check
to insure all screws,
nuts and fasteners are
tight and undamaged.
Prevents jams, leaks
and premature
failure of tool parts.
Tighten loose screws
or other fasteners using
the appropriate hex
wrench or screwdriver.
CLEANING
Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-
metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the materials used in these
parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get
inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
