Operation

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	FIG. 6
magazine, pressing against the bypass lever of the
follower, see figure 6.

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 7.

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 and stationary parts during the pinching movement.

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.

Never connect the tool to an air source ! WARNING that is capable of producing air pressure

exceeding 200 PSI. Excessive pressure can cause abnormal operation or cause the tool to burst, resulting in personal injury.

Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air within the pressure range as marked on the tool. The correct pressure is the lowest pressure that will do the job.

Before connecting the tool to the air supply, check the air compressor regulator gauge to be sure it is functioning properly, and that the air pressure is within the operational range of the tool, 60-120 psi.

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 range. 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:

•Minimum hose pressure rating, 200 psi

•Minimum hose inner diameter, 3/8 in.

•Maximum hose length, 100 ft.

To connect the air supply:

1.Snap the air hose onto the quick connector, see figure 8.

2.Check for air leakage. If leakage is noted, cease using the tool immediately and contact your BOSCH service center.

3.Be sure the air pressure gauge is operating properly and check it at least twice a day.
