Lubricating the Tool
Lubricate the tool with air tool lubricant
before connecting the air supply. Under low
use, lubricate once a day. Under heavy use,
lubricate twice a day. Use only a few drops
of oil at a time. Using too much oil will cause
it to collect in the tool and be noticeable
in the exhaust. Do not use detergent oil,
WD-40, transmission fl uid, motor oil, or other
lubricants not specifi cally designated as air
tool lubricant. These lubricants will cause
accelerated wear to the seals, o-rings and
bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor tool
performance and frequent maintenance.

Connecting the Air Supply
DANGER
Do not use oxygen, combustible gas-
es or bottled gases as a power source
for this tool. The tool will explode and
cause death or serious injury.
WARNING
Always use a coupling that discharg-
es all the compressed air in the tool at
the time the fi tting or hose coupling is
disconnected. Using a coupling that
does not discharge the compressed
air could cause unintended operation
and serious injury.
Use only clean, dry compressed air with a
maximum pressure of 200 psi. Before con-
necting the tool to the air supply, check the
air compressor regulator gauge to be sure it
is functioning properly, with a range between
70-120 psi. Air pressure higher than 120 psi
could cause injury and property damage. The
correct pressure is the lowest pressure that
will do the job.
To connect the air supply:
1.
Remove the plastic plug from the tool air
inlet.
2.
Insert a 1/4" NPT quick connector into
the tool air inlet.
NOTE: To improve the seal between
the connector and the tool, and to help
protect against oxidation, apply a PTFE
tape or paste to the connector threads
before insertion.
3.
Lubricate the quick connector with 2-3
drops air tool lubricant.
4.
Snap the air hose onto the quick con-
nector.
5.
Check for air leakage.

Installing Fastener Strips
WARNING
Always point the tool away from
yourself and others when installing
fasteners. Failure to do so could
result in injury.
Always make sure the tool's maga-
zine is EMPTY before connecting to
the air supply. The tool may actuate
when the tool is fi rst connected to the
air supply. Always connect the tool
to the air supply before loading nails
to prevent injury from unintended
actuation.
Never install fasteners with the
workpiece contact or trigger acti-
vated. Failure to do so could result
in injury.
Use only recommended
fasteners
of the correct size, length, collation
angle and head type, as indicated
on the tool's nameplate. Refer to the
"Accessories" section for informa-
tion on recommended fasteners.
Other fasteners could result in tool
malfunction, leading to injury.
1.
Verify that the magazine is empty and
then connect the air supply to the tool.
2.
Lay the tool on its side and point the
nose of the tool away from yourself and
others.
3.
Pull the pusher back until it locks into
position at the back of the magazine.
4.
Feed fastener strips into the magazine. Be
sure the point of the fasteners is pointed
downward. Push the fastener strip forward
until it clears the pusher.
NOTE: Use only recommended fasten-
ers of the correct size, length, collation
angle and head type as indicated on the
tool's nameplate.
5.
Press the pusher release button and
allow the pusher to slide forward gently,
pushing the fasteners toward the driving
mechanism. The pusher will stop when
it rests against the end of the fastener
strip.
NOTE: The fasteners must be aligned
with the nose of the tool for the fasteners
to be installed correctly.
Removing Fastener Strips
WARNING
To avoid serious injury, disconnect
the tool from the air supply before
removing fastener strips or clearing
a jammed fastener.
Keep fi ngers clear of fastener track
of magazine. Pusher could pinch
fi ngers, causing injury.
1.
Lay the tool on its side and point the
nose of the tool away from yourself and
others.
2.
Disconnect the air supply from the tool.
3.
To remove a strip of fasteners, pull the
pusher back until it locks into position
at the back of the magazine.
4.
Remove fastener strip from the tool.
5.
Reload according to "Installing Fastener
Strips".
