Checking the safety catch
WARNING: Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment
or maintenance is carried out.
• Ensure that there are no fasteners in the magazine
• The Safety Catch (6) should move in and out with no obstruction
• Test the safety yoke is operating correctly as follows:
1. Connect the tool to the air supply
2. Push the Safety Catch (6) against a piece of wood without
pulling the Trigger (1).
The tool should not fire. If the tool fires, it must be repaired before further use
3. Hold the tool away from the piece of wood. The Safety Catch (6) should return
to the original position
4. Pull the Trigger (1). The tool should not fire. If the tool fires, it must be
repaired before any further use
5. Push the Safety Catch (6) against the piece of wood, but this time pull the
Trigger (1). The tool should fire. This indicates normal operation
Loading the magazine
WARNING: Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any loading,
adjustment, or maintenance is carried out.
1. Open the Magazine Latch (4) and open the Magazine Cover (5)
2. Insert fasteners into the magazine, ensuring the point of the fastener is
facing forward (away from the handle of the tool)
3. Close the magazine cover until the latch (4) is fully secured
(you will hear a ‘click’)
Operation
WARNING: Ensure your compressed air supply operates within the pressure range
stated in “Specifications”.
Firing trigger
• To operate the nailer, press the Safety Catch (6) against the material. Holding
the nailer firmly by its handle, squeeze the Trigger (1) to fire the nail into the
material
WARNING: Rapidly pressing the firing trigger could cause internal damage and
may invalidate the guarantee.
Exhaust
• Rotate the Exhaust Direction Dial (9) to direct the exhaust air away from the
operator
Nail depth adjustment
IMPORTANT: Always test the fastener will penetrate by the correct amount.
1. Fire a test nail into a piece of scrap material and examine the penetration
depth of the nail
2. If necessary, adjust the air supply pressure to change the nail penetration
depth: reducing the air supply pressure will reduce the depth that the nail
penetrates.
Clearing jams
WARNING: Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment
or maintenance is carried out.
