DO NOT HIT THE TOOL HARD

English

Do not hit the tool hard. A tap is all that is required to operate the tool. Not more than a 12” stroke is required.

This Nailer is pneumatically powered and requires only actuation by depressing the Safety Trigger and Tapping the Ram Head.

Note: The NT50AGF Pneumatic Flooring Nailer will not drive a nail if the Ram Cap is struck by Hammer and the Safety Trigger is not depressed.

The NT50AGF Pneumatic Flooring Nailer is user-friendly and fol- lowing these simple instructions, will insure a very high quality Hardwood Flooring installation.

If the nail is not properly seated, increase pressure incrementally until nail is seated. DO NOT EXCEED 120 PSI!

WARNING

•

•

•

Keep your finger off the trigger except during fastening opera- tion, because serious injury could result if the contact ram accidentally contacts you or others in the work area.

Keep hands and body away from the discharge area. The nailer may bounce from recoil of driving a fastener and unwanted subsequent fastener may be driven, possibly causing injury. Some types of loaded nails can spark out of the muzzle during a driving operation. Exercise caution!

INSTALLING TONGUE AND GROOVE FLOORING

Install the Face Nailing Shoe on the NT50AGF Pneumatic Flooring Nailer (See Shoe Changing Section Page 17).

After squaring the Floor and allowing for expansion as recom- mended by the Wood Flooring Industry (NWFA, NOFMA and MFMA), install Felt Vapor Barrier and use chalk line to identify location of Sub-Floor Nails prior to racking wood to be nailed. This will help prevent hitting Sub-Floor Nails which can cause damage to the Driver Blade and Jamming. Place the grooved edge of the first row of Flooring towards the wall on the side of the room from which you are starting.

Be careful to tap both the Ram Head of the NT50AGF Pneumatic Flooring Nailer and the Flooring with the Gray Cap on the Hammer. Tapping the Ram Head or tapping the Flooring with the metal end of the Hammer will cause damage to the Nailer or the Flooring.
