VI. PRE-USE CHECKS

A. CLEANING

Keep the gun nose as clean as possible. Dirt and debris have a tendency to work their way into the gun from the nose. Wipe off any dirt that collects on the outside of the gun before connecting it to the air supply.

B. OILING

Keep the gun oiled. Use special pneumatic tool oil to keep internal parts well lubricated. This tool oil is available through the Grizzly Catalog (G2820).

If your air supply is not pre-lubricated, you must add 2 drops of oil directly into the air nozzle at the rear of the gun each time the magazine is loaded. NEVER USE any oil that will corrode the rubber O-ring seals such as detergent oils or oils that are used as sol- vents. Avoid over-oiling.

With these points in mind, you can operate your nail gun under the best possible condi- tions for increased dependability and low overall cost of operation.

IMPORTANT: When you first pick up an air activated nail gun, ALWAYS ASSUME THAT IT IS LOADED. Inspect for any nails before connecting it to the air hose. Do not connect the air supply until you are in position and ready to operate the gun.

VII. OPERATIONS

A. LOADING FASTENERS

To load the gun:

1.Disconnect the air hose if connected.

2.Slide the nails into the magazine through the rear slot. Figure 3.

3.Pull the spring handle back behind the last nail and let it go slowly. It will press against the nails. Figure 4.

Figure 3 shows how to slide the nails in through the

nail slot.

Figure 4 shows pulling back the spring handle to

secure the nails and add pressure.
