IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER WARNINGS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING FOR SAFE OPERATION

Use the DEWALT pneumatic tool only for the purpose for which it was designed.

Never use this tool in a manner that could cause a fastener to be directed toward the user or others in the work area.

Do not use the tool as a hammer.

Always carry the tool by the handle. Never carry the tool by the air hose.

Do not alter or modify this tool from the original design or function without approval from DEWALT.

Always be aware that misuse and improper handling of this tool can cause injury to yourself and others.

Before using the tool, verify that the actuator is in the non-actuated position. With the tool disconnected from the air supply, depress the actuator and confirm it returns to the non-actuated position.

Never leave a tool unattended with the air hose attached.

Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a legible WARNING LABEL.

Do not continue to use a tool that leaks air or does not function properly. Notify your nearest DEWALT representative if your tool continues to experience functional problems.

MAINTAINING THE PNEUMATIC TOOL

When working on air tools, note the warnings in this manual and use extra care evaluating problem tools.

CAUTION: Pusher spring (constant force spring). Caution must be used when working with the spring assembly. The spring is wrapped around, but not attached to, a roller. If the spring is extended beyond its length, the end will come off the roller and the spring will roll up with a snap, with a chance of pinching your hand. Also the edges of the spring are very thin and could cut. Care must also be taken to insure no permanent kinks are put in the spring as this will reduce the springs force.

REPLACEMENT PARTS:

DEWALT replacement parts are recommended. Do not use modified parts or parts which will not give equivalent performance to the original equipment.

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE FOR SEALS:

When repairing a tool, make sure the internal parts are clean and lubricated. Use Parker “O”-LUBE or equivalent on all “O”-rings. Coat each “O”-ring with “O”-LUBE before assembling. Use a small amount of oil on all moving surfaces and pivots. After reassembly add a few drops of DEWALT Air Tool Lubricant through the air line fitting before testing.

AIR SUPPLY-PRESSURE AND VOLUME:

Air volume is as important as air pressure. The air volume supplied to the tool may be inadequate because of undersize fittings and hoses, or from the effects of dirt and water in the system. Restricted air flow will prevent the tool from receiving an adequate volume of air, even though the pressure reading is high. The results will be slow operation, misfeeds or reduced driving power. Before evaluating tool problems for these symptoms, trace the air supply from the tool to the supply source for restrictive connectors, swivel fittings, low points containing water and anything else that would prevent full volume flow of air to the tool.
