Description of Operation

Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.

On/Auto/Off Switch (A): Turn this switch ON to provide automatic power to the pressure switch and OFF to remove power at the end of each use.

Pressure Switch (B): The pressure switch automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. It stops the motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set "cut-out" pressure.

E

Safety Valve (C): If the pressure switch does not shut off the air compressor at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the safety valve will protect against high pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly higher than the pressure switch "cut-out" setting).

Outlet Pressure Gauge (D):

The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the regulator and is always less than or equal to the tank pressure.

GF

Tank Pressure Gauge (E): The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in the tank.

Regulator (F): Controls the air pressure shown on the outlet pressure gauge. Pull the knob out and turn clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure. When the desired pressure is reached push knob in to lock in place.

Universal Quick-Connect Body (G): The universal quick-connect body accepts the three most popular styles of quick-connect plugs- Industrial, automotive (Tru-flate), and ARO. One hand push-to-connect operation makes connections simple and easy. The two quick connect bodies allow the use of two tools at the same time.

Remote Console (H): Permits remote air regulation and control closer to work area, includes two high-flow industrial/automotive style compatible quick- connects, outlet pressure gauge, and a high-flow regulator.

CFFR350B, CFFC350B specifications

The Porter-Cable CFFR350B and CFFC350B are two remarkable options in the realm of cordless nailers, specifically designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. Built by a company with a longstanding reputation for producing reliable and efficient power tools, these models reflect the latest technological advancements and user-focused features.

One of the standout features of the CFFR350B is its cordless design. Powered by an efficient 20V MAX lithium-ion battery, it provides the freedom of movement without cumbersome air hoses or gas cartridges. This is invaluable for those working in tight spaces or on ladders, as it allows for easy maneuverability and less fatigue during prolonged use. The CFFC350B similarly benefits from a cordless design, ensuring users can work effectively across a variety of job sites.

Both the CFFR350B and CFFC350B are equipped with a robust motor that delivers consistent firing power, whether users are driving fasteners into softwood or hardwood. The ability to handle a range of fastener sizes enhances versatility, with the CFFR350B capable of accommodating 1-1/4 inch to 3-1/2 inch framing nails, while the CFFC350B specializes in fastening applications, such as flooring and trim.

Another noteworthy feature is the tool-free depth adjustment. This functionality allows users to set the exact depth of the nails for precision work, ensuring that each nail is driven to the desired level without the need for additional tools. Along with this, both models include a tool-free jam release mechanism, which simplifies the process of clearing any nail jams that may occur, minimizing downtime during projects.

Additionally, the CFFR350B and CFFC350B come with an adjustable exhaust that directs air away from the user, keeping the workspace clean and enhancing user comfort. Their lightweight design paired with an ergonomic handle further promotes comfort over extended use, reducing hand fatigue and improving overall handling.

In conclusion, the Porter-Cable CFFR350B and CFFC350B nailers are essential additions to any tool collection. Their combination of cordless convenience, powerful motor performance, user-adjustable features, and thoughtful ergonomics makes them ideal for tackling a wide range of framing and fastening tasks with efficiency and precision.
