AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTION
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power source for this tool as tool may explode, possibly causing injury.
Do not use supply sources which can potentially exceed 80 P.S.I.G. (5.6 kg/cm2) as tool may burst, possibly causing injury.
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure when air supply is disconnected. If a wrong fitting is used, the tool can remain charged with air after disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a staple even after the air line is disconnected possibly causing injury.
Clean, dry air as provided by the proper
OPERATING PRESSURE
40 to 60 p.s.i.g. (2.8 to 4.2 kg/cm2). Select the operating pressure within this range for best fastener performance.
DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.
All hoses, pipes and pipe fittings must have a 3/8” (9.5 mm) minimum inside diameter. Hose fittings must have a 9/32” (7.1mm) minimum inside diameter.
AIR CONSUMPTION
Air requirements will vary with operating speed and the type of material to be fastened. Do not use more air pressure than required for the job. Air pressure in excess of the amount required to provide adequate fastening wastes compressed air and may result in damage to equipment.
After all air connections are made, check for leaks.
CHOICE OF STAPLE SIZE
When letter “A” on D16112 clamp is in upper left hand corner refer to below listed chart as a guide for establishing proper staple leg length and approximate clincher depth setting. NOTE: When D16112 clamp is rotated 180º and letter “B” appears in the upper left hand corner the range of clincher depth settings is lowered 1/32” (.79mm).
EYE PROTECTION WHICH CONFORMS TO ANSI SPECIFICATIONS AND PROVIDES PROTECTION AGAINST FLYING PARTICLES BOTH FROM THE FRONT AND SIDE SHOULD ALWAYS BE WORN BY THE OPERATOR AND OTHERS IN THE WORK AREA WHEN LOADING, OPERATING OR SERVICING THIS TOOL. EYE PROTECTION IS REQUIRED TO GUARD AGAINST FLYING FASTENERS AND DEBRIS, WHICH COULD CAUSE SEVERE EYE INJURY.
THE EMPLOYER AND/OR USER MUST ENSURE THAT PROPER EYE PROTECTION IS WORN. EYE PROTECTION EQUIPMENT MUST CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS INSTITUTE, ANSI Z87.1 AND PROVIDE BOTH FRONTAL AND SIDE PROTECTION. NOTE:
CAUTION: ADDITIONAL SAFETY PROTECTION WILL BE REQUIRED IN SOME ENVIRONMENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE WORKING AREA MAY INCLUDE EXPOSURE TO NOISE LEVEL WHICH CAN LEAD TO HEARING DAMAGE. THE EMPLOYER AND USER MUST ENSURE THAT ANY NECESSARY HEARING PROTECTION IS PROVIDED AND USED BY THE OPERATOR AND OTHERS IN THE WORK AREA. SOME ENVIRONMENTS WILL REQUIRE THE USE OF HEAD PROTECTION EQUIPMENT. WHEN REQUIRED, THE EMPLOYER AND USER MUST ENSURE THAT HEAD PROTECTION CONFORMING TO ANSI Z89. IS USED.
TO LOAD
When loading tool: 1.) Never place a hand or any part of body in fastener discharge area of tool; 2.) Never point tool at anyone; 3.) Do not pull the trigger or depress the trip as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury.
Pull Pusher to back of magazine and turn over rear as far as it will go.
Place 2 sticks of SW7437 or SW9040 staples in channel.
Swing pusher into place against staples. Do not let it slip and strike staples. This may deform some staples, and cause poor feeding.
