Model JB3495

Operating The Nailer

Read this manual and understand all safety warnings and instructions before operating the nailer.

LUBRICATION

This nailer requires lubrication before using the nailer for the first time and before each use. If an inline oiler is used, manual lubrication through the air inlet is not required on a daily basis.

The work surface

can become damaged by excessive lubrication. Proper lubrication is the owner’s responsibil- ity. Failure to lubricate the nailer properly will dramatically shorten the life of the nailer and void your warranty.

1. Disconnect the air supply from the nailer to add lubricant.

2. Turn the nailer

 

so the air inlet

OIL

is facing up.

 

Place 4-5 drops

 

of 30 W non-

 

detergent oil

 

into air inlet.

 

Do not use

 

detergent oils, oil additives, or air

tool oils. Air tool oils contain

solvents which will damage the

nailer’s internal components.

3. After adding oil, run nailer briefly. Wipe off any excess oil from the cap exhaust.

RECOMMENDED HOOKUP

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. Use 3/8” air

hoses with a minimum working

pressure of 150 psi. 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 compressor, with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure regulator is required to control the operating pressure of the nailer between 70 and 120 psi.

NO-MAR DECKING TIP

The no-mar decking tip is designed to eliminate marks caused by the serrated work contact element (WCE). The no- mar tip may be removed if not required (See REMOVING NO-MAR DECKING TIP). Use tool in single cycle mode (SEE OPERATIONAL MODES) when no-mar tip is in place.

REMOVING NO-MAR DECKING TIP

1. Disconnect air supply from nailer.

2.Remove all fasteners from magazine (See UNLOADING THE

NAILER).

3.Remove no-mar tip retaining ring.
