Operating
If you have not read the safety instruc- tions in this manual, do not operate the nailer.
Before you operate your nailer, place two to six drops of the included oil into the quick connect fitting where the nailer con- nects to the air supply.
To operate your nailer:
1.Connect the air supply to the quick con- nect fitting.
Point the nailer away from you and others when connecting the air supply. The nailer can cycle and discharge a nail when the air supply is connected. Ignoring this warning may result in serious personal injury.
2.To test for proper nail penetration, hold the nailer perpendicular to the surface of a piece of clean scrap wood that is thick enough for the length of nails you have loaded.
