BEFORE OPERATION

Read section titled “SAFETY” (pages 4 – 7).

Make sure of the followings before operation.

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

WARNING

No flammable gas, liquid or other flammable objects at worksite.

Clear the area of children or unauthorized personnel.

AIR SUPPLY

DANGER

NEVER use oxygen or

other bottled gases. Explosion may occur.

WARNING

Never connect Nailer to pressure which potentially exceeds 200 psi (13.7 bar 14 kgf/cm2).

Never use non relieving coupler on Nailer.

1.Power source

Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a power source for this Nailer.

Air compressors used to supply compressed air to this Nailer must comply with the requirements of the latest version of ANSI Standard B 19.3 “Safety Standard For Compressors For Process Industries”.

Moisture or oil in the air compressor may accelerate wear and corrosion in the Nailer.

Drain daily.

2.Filter-Regulator-Lubricator

Use a regulator with a pressure range of

0 – 120 psi (0 – 8.3 bar 0 – 8.5 kgf/cm2).

Filter-regulator-lubricator units supply an optimum condition for the Nailer and extend the Nailer life.

These units should always be used. Filter ............ The filter removes

moisture and dirt mixed in compressed air.

Drain daily unless fitted with an automatic drain. Keep the filter clean by regular maintenance.

Regulator .... The regulator controls the operating pressure for safe operation of the Nailer.

Inspect the regulator before operation to be sure it operates properly.

Lubricator ... The lubricator supplies an oil mist to the Nailer. Inspect the lubricator before operation to be sure the supply of lubricant is adequate.

Use Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant.

3.Air hose

Air hose must have a minimum working pressure rating of 150 psi (10.4 bar 10.6 kgf/cm2) or 150% of the maximum pressure produced in the system, whichever is higher.

4.Air consumption

Using the Air consumption table and the Air compressor size formula, find a correct compressor size.
