Adjusting depth of nailing

CAUTION:

Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hose before adjusting the depth of nailing.

To adjust the depth of nailing, turn the adjuster so that the arrow above the adjuster will point to the number indicated on the adjuster. The depth of nailing is the deepest when the arrow points to the number 1. It will become shallower as the arrow points to higher number. The depth can be changed in approx. 1.0 mm (1132”) increments per graduation. If nails cannot be driven deep enough even when the arrow points to the number 1, increase the air pressure. If nails are driven too deep even when the arrow points to the number 8,decrease the air pressure. Generally speak- ing, the tool service life will be longer when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the adjuster set to a lower number.

Connecting air hose

Lock the trigger. Slip the air socket of the air hose onto the air fitting on the nailer. Be sure that the air socket locks firmly into position when installed onto the air fitting. A hose coupling must be installed on or near the tool in such a way that the pressure reservoir will discharge at the time the air supply coupling is dis- connected.

Operation

1) To drive a nail, you may place the contact element

against the workpiece and pull the trigger, or

2)Pull the trigger first and then place the contact ele- ment against the workpiece.

No. 1 method is for intermittent nailing, when you wish

 

to drive a nail carefully and very accurately.
