Note: The tool features a “blank fire” lockout that will prevent the tool from firing when there are zero nails left in the magazine. The tool will not allow the work contact element to be depressed when there are no nails in the tool.
Use only the nails meeting ! WARNING the criteria listed in the
“Specification” section of this manual. Nails not identified for use with this tool can cause the tool to malfunction and result in the risk of injury and/or tool damage.
3. This tool uses a spring loaded bypass lever in order to load and unload the nails. Once the nails are properly inserted, pull the follower completely to the back of the magazine, pressing against the bypass lever of the follower, see figure 4.
4. Once the follower hits the back of the magazine, allow the follower to slide forward and engage the nails, pushing them to the nose of the tool, see figure 5.
Watch for pinch points with the follower. Never place any part of your body in a pinch point area. When
loading nails consider where your hand is located. If it is within a pinch point, strongly consider an alternative position. Injuries occur when hands or fingers are between moving parts.

FIRING MODES
“Sequential” Firing Mode: To use the tool to drive nails in this actuation mode, the work contact element and trigger must be used in a specific order:
1.The work contact element must be completely depressed by placing the nose of the tool against the work piece, see figure 6.
2.The trigger must be pulled firmly and then released, see figure 6.
3.The tool must be allowed to recoil away from the work piece.
4.Ensure that WCE and the trigger are fully released before firing next nail.
To continue operation in a separate location, move the tool along the work piece, repeating steps 2 through 4 as required.
!WARNING Remove finger from the trigger when not driving
nails. Always carry the tool by the handle
only. Removing your finger from the trigger when not operating the tool reduces the risk of unintentionally firing a nail and injuring yourself or someone else.
The tool must be allowed to recoil away from the work piece. Do not drive a nail on top of another
nail. If the tool is not moved before the trigger is pulled again a second nail will be driven on top of the previously driven nail. This could cause the nail to be deflected or the tool to react in an unexpected manner.
