DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY! 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 nailer; this may result in leaks and dam- age to the nailer and the air couplings.
If you use your nailer day in and day out, repair pistons are cheap insurance against wasted down time and lost profits, in the event that a piston or piston shaft becomes worn out. Refer to the break- down diagram in the back of the manual for part numbers and ordering information.
Never use gasoline or other flamma- ble 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!
Disconnect air from nailer whenev- er servicing! During maintenance, a nailer connected to air may fire acci- dentally, causing serious personal injury!
To replace a piston:
1.DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE AIR SUPPLY!
2.Remove all nails from the magazine cartridge and remove the base plate.
3.Remove the cap screws shown in Figure 8 that secure the base.
