OPERATION

PRE-START CHECKLIST:

1.Remove any moisture in the air compressor air tank. Remove excessive pressure with an air tool, then open the air tank drain valve in the bottom of the air tank. Close tightly when drained.

WARNING: Risk of bodily injury. NEVER attempt to open the drain valve when more than 10 PSI of air pressure is in the air tank!

2.Make sure the air compressor Motor Switch is in the "OFF" position.

3.Make sure all safety valves are working correctly.

4.Make sure all guards and covers are in place and securely mounted.

START-UP:

1.Ensure the lever on the pressure switch box is in the "OFF" (O) position.

2.Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet.

3.Move the lever on the pressure switch box to the "ON" (1) position.

4.AUTO OPERATION: The ON position will allow the air compressor to "START" building

up pressure in the air tanks and "STOP" when correct pressure is achieved. When pressure drops with usage the air compressor will "START" building up pressure again.

5.Set pressure by adjusting the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise for less pressure and clockwise for more pressure.

6.If you notice any unusual noise or vibration, stop the air compressor and refer to "Troubleshooting".

SHUTDOWN:

1.To stop the air compressor, move the lever on the pressure switch box to the "OFF" (O) position. NEVER stop the air compressor by unplugging it from the power source. This could result in risk of electrocution.

2.Drain air from the air tank by releasing air with an attached air tool or by pulling on the safety relief valve ring.

3.Once pressure in the air tanks register under 10 PSI, open the drain valve under each air tank to drain any moisture.

4.Allow the air compressor to cool down.

5.Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.

MAINTENANCE

Read the instruction manual before performing maintenance. The following procedures must be performed when stopping the air compressor for maintenance or service.

1. Turn off the air compressor.

WARNING: Never assume the air compressor is safe to work on just because it is not operating. It could restart at any time!

2.Disconnect cord from main power supply.

3.Open all drains.

4.Wait for the air compressor to cool before starting service.

PC1108 specifications

The Senco PC1108 is a powerful and versatile pneumatic nail gun designed for both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts. This tool stands out for its robust performance, user-friendly features, and reliability, making it a favorite for a variety of nailing applications.

One of the main features of the Senco PC1108 is its lightweight design, weighing just 3.5 pounds. This makes it easy to handle and reduces fatigue during extended use. The gun is equipped with a powerful motor that can drive up to 120 nails per minute, allowing users to complete projects quickly and efficiently. It uses 18-gauge nails, which provide a strong hold while minimizing damage to the materials being fastened.

The Senco PC1108 also boasts an adjustable depth-of-drive feature, enabling users to control how deep the nails are driven into the material. This ensures a professional finish and is particularly useful when working with different materials or when precision is required.

Another notable technology incorporated in the Senco PC1108 is its air filter and dual lubrication system. The air filter helps keep dust and debris out of the tool, extending its lifespan and ensuring smooth operation. The dual lubrication system ensures that all moving parts are well-lubricated, further enhancing performance and durability over time.

The nail gun features a 360-degree adjustable exhaust, which allows users to direct exhaust airflow away from their face and work surface. This design enhances comfort and visibility when working in tight spaces. Additionally, the tool includes a quick-release nose design, making it easy to clear jams without needing additional tools, which can save valuable time on the job.

Durability is another key characteristic of the Senco PC1108. Constructed with high-quality materials, it is built to withstand the rigors of daily use on job sites. The rubberized grip provides added comfort and control, making it suitable for both horizontal and vertical nailing tasks.
