COLD WEATHER OPERATION

When using the tool in cold conditions the tool will cycle slower than usual while driving the first nails. The cycle rate will increase as the tool warms up. Keep tool warm to avoid reduced cycle rate.

Do not use a frozen tool. ! WARNING Allow tool to thaw before

using. Moisture frozen in the tool may impede internal components resulting in the risk of injury and/or tool damage.

NAIL UNLOADING

Always disconnect battery ! WARNING pack from tool before

removing nails from magazine. This avoids the risk of unintentional operation.

Do not disconnect battery ! WARNING pack from the tool with

finger on trigger or work contact element depressed. The tool can fire when reconnected to battery pack.

1. Disconnect battery pack.

2. Pull back follower, pressing bypass lever of the follower to allow follower to bypass nails and slowly allow follower to return to nose of the tool, see figure 8.

3. Tilt the tool with the magazine vertical and the nose facing up, this will allow the nails to slide to the back of the magazine.

4. Once the nails have slid back to the hold back spring, press the tab on the hold back spring to push the spring back and allow the nails to come out of the magazine, see figure 9.

Do not allow the nail follower to freely recoil.

Guide the follower by hand until it reaches its full forward position. Free recoil of the follower could result in damage to the follower and/or magazine or your fingers could become pinched.

DEPTH OF DRIVE ADjUSTMENT

The depth with which nails are driven into the work piece can be adjusted using the depth adjustment on the housing.

Disconnect the battery pack ! WARNING from tool before making

adjustments. Such precautionary safety measures reduce the risk or unintentional tool operation.
