CONNECTING AIR SUPPLY

WARNING

Never use oxygen or other bottled gases as a power

source. Explosion may occur. Combustible gases and other

bottled gases are dangerous and may cause the tool to

explode.

WARNING

Never connect the tool to an air source that is capable

of producing air pressure exceeding 200PSI. Excessive

pressure can cause abnormal operation or cause the tool to

burst, resulting in personal injury.

WARNING

Do not exceed maximum recommended air pressure

marked on the tool. Verify prior to using the tool that the

air source has been adjusted within the rated air-pressure

rang. Be sure the air pressure gauge is operating properly

and check it at least twice a day. Tools operated in excess of

their maximum pressure rating may operate abnormally or

burst resulting in personal injury.

To connect the tool to the compressor only use

pneumatic air hoses that meet the following criteria:

1. Minimum hose pressure rating, 200PSI.

2. Minimum hose inner diameter, 1/4inch (6.4mm).

3. Maximum hose length, 100 feet (30.5meters).

6. If no abnormal operation is observed, you may load nails

in the tool. Drive nails into the workpiece that is the same

type to be used in the actual application.

 • THE TOOL MUST OPERATE PROPERLY.

NAIL LOADING

WARNING

When loading the tool’s magazine, check that the nail

tips contact the wear rail and slide smoothly against

the surface of the magazine. If the nails are not loaded

properly, the tool will misﬁre and nails can be deﬂected,

causing the tool to react in an unexpected manner, and

damage the tool.

1. Connect air supply.

2. Hold tool handgrip securely, and pull pusher back until it

locks in latched position at rear of magazine.
