Besides damaging your workpiece, deflection can cause injury if your free hand is securing the workpiece in the location that the nail deflects.

4.Press the trigger. If the brad nail drove into the wood far enough, continue with your intended operations. If the brad nail either went too far or not far enough, then adjust the air pressure. More air pressure will make the brad nail go deeper and less air pressure will decrease the brad nail penetra- tion.

Oiling Nailer

Special oil has been included with your new Grizzly nailer to help maintain its use- ful life. Place one drop of oil in the nailer air inlet (as shown in Figure 4) before every use. Wipe off any excess oil near the nail- er exhaust to avoid dust build-up. When the oil that was included with the nailer has been completely used, replace with Grizzly Model G2820 pnuematic tool oil.

Another option to manual oiling would be to install a lubricator in your air compressor line. If your air compressor line already has a lubricator, then regular lubrication of your nailer will not be necessary. Just make sure there is always oil in the lubricator.

As mentioned before, the best option is to install a filter/lubricator/regulator unit such as the Grizzly Model H2333 in your air line.

Cleaning Nailer

Never use use gasoline or other flam- mable liquids to clean this tool. Vapors in the tool may ignite, causing the tool to explode. Ignoring this warning may lead to serious personal injury or even death!

Use a good solvent to clean the nose assembly of the nailer. Always be sure that the nailer is dry before using it again.

Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc. into the air connectors or into the body of the nail- er; this may result in leaks and damage to the nailer and the air couplings.
