Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air output to

assure cost-efficient operation The graph shows the relation be- tween nailing frequency, applicable pressure and compressor air output Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of approxi- mately 40 times per minute at a compression of 5 kgflcmzG (70 PSIG) a compressor with an air output over 30 Iiters/minute 1s required Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to

the rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure exceeds the tools rated pressure Failure to do so may result in serious inlury to tool operator or persons in the vicinity
