Variable speed | K |
The variable speed feature enables you to select the best speed for a particular application.
The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate.
Use lower speeds for starting
and when hammering large nails into hard wood. Increase the speed to suit the application (Fig. K).
Note. It is recommended to use the variable speed feature for short periods at a time. Do not continuously operate the tool at different speeds. It may damage the switch.

Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time (Fig. L).
Maintenance
WARNING. Always ensure that the tool is switched off and that
the power cord is removed from the power supply before making any adjustments or maintenance procedures.
Store the tool instruction manual and accessories in a secure place. In this way you will always have all the parts ready to hand.
CAUTION. Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts of the nailer. A mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended. Water must never come into contact with the tool.
Cleaning
1. Keep your machine and its
cord clean. The outside of theM machine can be cleaned using
a soft brush or damp soft cloth with a mild detergent if required (Fig. M).
2.Some maintenance products and solvents may damage the plastic parts; these include products containing benzene, trichloroethylene, chloride and ammonia.
3.Excessive sparking generally indicates the presence of dirt in the motor or abnormal wear on the carbon brushes.
4.Take special care to keep the ventilation inlets/outlets free from obstruction; cleaning with a soft brush followed by a compressed air jet will usually be sufficient to ensure acceptable internal cleanliness.
5.Wear eye protection when carrying out cleaning.
CAUTION. Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts of the drill.
Power cord maintenance
If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or an authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
