Operating The Nailer (Continued)
Recommended Hookup
The illustration below shows the recommended hookup for the nailer.
1. The air compressor must be able to maintain a minimum of 70
psi when the nailer 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 nailer. A 
filter can be used to 
remove liquid and solid 
impurities which can rust or “gum up” internal parts of the nailer.
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” air hose for runs up to 50’. Use 1/2” air hoses for 50’ run or longer.
For better performance, install a 3/8” quick plug (1/4” NPT threads) with an inside diameter of .315” (8mm) on the nailer and a 3/8” quick coupler on the air hose.
4.Use a pressure regulator on the com- pressor, with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure regulator is required to control the operating pressure of the nailer between 70 and 110 psi.
Operational Mode
Always know the operational mode of
the nailer before using. Failure to know the operational mode could result in death or serious personal injury.
Single Cycle Mode
This mode
requires the trigger to be pulled each time a nail is
driven. The nailer can be actuated by
depressing the WCE against the work surface followed by pulling the trigger.
The trigger must be released to reset the tool before another nail can be driven.
work contact element (WCE)
Check the operation of the Work Contact
Element (WCE) trip mechanism before each use. The WCE must move freely without binding through its entire travel distance. The WCE spring must return the WCE to its fully extended position after being depressed. Do not operate the nailer if the WCE trip mechanism is not operating properly. Personal injury may occur.
1. Disconnect the air supply from the nailer.
2. Remove all nails from
the magazine (see Loading/ Unloading).
3. Make sure the trigger and work
contact
Movement
element
(WCE) move freely up and down without sticking or binding.
4. Reconnect air supply to the nailer.
5. Depress the Work |
| |
Contact Element |
| |
(WCE) against the |
| |
work surface without | 1 | |
pulling the trigger. The | ||
| ||
nailer must not operate. Do not | ||
use the tool if it operates without pulling the trigger. Personal injury may result.
6. Remove the nailer from 
the work surface. The 
Work Contact Element 
(WCE) must return to its 
original down position. 
The nailer must not operate. Do not use the tool if it operates while lifted from the work surface. Personal injury may result.

| depress |
|
|
| the work | 1 | 2 |

An improperly functioning tool
must not be used. Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the work piece.
Loading/Unloading The Nailer
1.Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before loading fasteners.
2. Press down
on the release 
latch. Pull back 
on the magazine 
cover. 
3. Insert a stick
of Campbell Hausfeld nails
or equivalent (see Fastener
Section) into the magazine. Make sure the pointed ends of the nails are resting on the bottom ledge of the magazine when loading. Make sure the nails are not dirty or damaged.
4. Push the magazine cover forward until the latch catches.
5.Always unload all fasteners before removing tool from service. Unloading is the reverse of loading, except always disconnect the air hose before unloading.
