Operating The Nailer
(Continued)
RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
The illustration below shows the recommended hookup for the nailer.
1. The air com- pressor must be able to main- tain a minimum
of 70 psi when
the nailer is being used. An inade- quate 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 pres- sure from the power source if a reg- ulator 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 perfor- mance, 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.
150 psi or greater
3/8” I.D.
4.Use a pressure regulator on the compressor, with an operating pres- sure of 0 - 125 psi. A pressure regu- lator is required to control the oper- ating pressure of the nailer between 70 and 110 psi.
OPERATIONAL MODE
Always know the ! WARNING 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 trig-
ger to be pulled each time a nail is driven. The
nailer can be actuated by depressing the WCE against the work surface fol- lowed by pulling the trigger.
The trigger must be released to reset the tool before another nail can be dri- ven.
WORK CONTACT ELEMENT (WCE)
Check the opera- ! CAUTION tion 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 extend- ed 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
element (WCE) movement 
move freely up 
and down without sticking or bind- ing.

5. | Depress the |
|
|
| Work Contact |
|
|
| Element (WCE) |
|
|
| against the |
|
|
| work surface | 1 |
|
| without 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. |
|
|
7. Pull the trig- |
|

| ger and |
|
|
| depress the |
|
|
| work contact | 1 | 2 |
| element | ||
|
|
| |
| (WCE) against the work surface. The | ||
| nailer MUST NOT OPERATE. |
| |
8. | Depress the |
|
|
| Work Contact |
|
|
| Element |
|
|
| (WCE) against | 1 | 2 |
| the work sur- | ||
|
|
| |
| face. Pull the trigger. The nailer | ||
| MUST OPERATE. |
|

An improperly
! WARNING 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 connect the tool to the air supply before loading fasteners.
