Disconnect the air supply from the tool and remove all fasteners.

Check all screws, nuts, bolts, and pins on the tool. If any of these are loose, they must be tightened with the appropriate size wrench.

Press the workpiece contact against a workpiece to ensure that it moves smoothly.

With the workpiece contact depressed, pull the trigger. The trigger should move smoothly, without binding.

While the tool is not loaded, connect the appropriate air supply (at 70 psi) to the tool.
