Operating Instructions (Continued)
1. The air compressor must be able to
maintain a minimum of 70 psi when the
tool is being used.. An inadequate air supply can cause a loss of power and inconsistent driving..
2. An oiler can be used to provide oil circulation through the tool.. A filter can
be used to remove liquid and solid impurities which can rust or “gum up” internal parts of the tool..
3.Always use air supply hoses with a minimum working pressure rating equal to or greater than the pressure from the power source if a regulator fails, or 150 psi, whichever is greater.. Use 3/8 inch air hose for runs up to 50 feet.. Use 1/2 inch air hoses for 50 foot run or longer.. For better performance, install a 3/8 inch quick plug (1/4 inch NPT threads) with an inside diameter of ..315 inch (8mm) on the tool and a 3/8 inch quick coupler on the air hose..
150 psi or greater
3/8 inch I..D..
4.Use a pressure regulator on the compressor, with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 psi.. A pressure regulator is required to control the operating pressure of the tool between 70 and 120 psi..

Grooves
onto WCE making certain serrated gooves on each piece are in line and fit snugly together..

Operational Mode
Always know the operational mode of
the tool before using. Failure to know the operational mode could result in death or serious personal injury.
Single Cycle Mode
When the black trigger is installed, nailer is in single cycle mode.. This method is recommended when precise nail placement is required.. Operation in this mode requires trigger to be pulled each time a nail is driven..
Nailer can be actuated by depressing the Work Contact Element (WCE) against work surface followed by pulling the trigger..
The trigger must be released after each fastener is driven to allow tool to reset..
Since the tool can only be actuated by first removing the finger from the trigger, this is considered to be a more restrictive mode of operation, suitable for less experienced users..
Bottom trip Mode
When the red trigger is installed, the nailer is in bottom trip mode.. This method is recommended when less precise nail placement is required.. Operation in this mode requires trigger to be depressed with nailer off of
the work surface.. Then, the nose of the nailer is tapped against the work surface causing a nail to be driven..
Each time the Work Contact Element is depressed, a nail is driven into the work surface.. Extreme care should be taken because a nail will be driven when the WCE is pressed against any surface..
Since the tool can be actuated without removing the finger from the trigger, this is considered to be a less restrictive mode, suitable for more experienced users..
