Push Lever

WARNING

●Keep your finger off the trigger except during nailing operation, because serious injury could result if the push lever accidentally contacts you or others in work area.

●Keep hands and body away from the discharge area. This Hitachi nailer may bounce from the recoil of driving a nail and unwanted subsequent nail may be driven, possibly causing injury.

NOTE

●If all warnings and instructions are followed, safe operation is possible with all two systems: SINGLE ACTUATION MECHANISM and CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM.

●Always handle nails and package carefully. If nails are dropped, collating bond may be broken, which will cause mis-feeding and jamming.

●After nailing:

1)disconnect air hose from the Nailer;

2)remove all nails from the Nailer;

3)supply 5 – 10 drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant into the air plug on the Nailer; and

4)open the petcock on the air compressor tank to drain any moisture.

Adjusting the nailing depth

WARNING

●When adjusting the Adjuster, be sure to remove your finger from the trigger and disconnect the air hose from the nailer.

To assure that each nail penetrates to the same depth, be sure that:

1) the air pressure to the Nailer remains constant (requlator is installed and working properly), and

2) the Nailer is always held firmly against the workpiece.

If nails are driven too deep or shallow into the workpiece, adjust the nailing in the following order.

1 DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM NAILER. 2 If nails are driven too deep, turn the adjuster

to the shallow side.

Adjustments are in half-turn increments.
