○ Use nail strip of more than 5 nails.
The Nailer is now ready to operate.
Removing the nails:
Lightly press the stop lever and gently pull out the
magazine cover.
Remove the nails from the nailer.
CAUTION
To prevent unintentional operation, never touch the
trigger or place the top end of the push lever on a work
bench on fl oor. Also, never face the nail outlet toward
any part of a person.
HOW TO USE THE NAILER
CAUTION
○ Do not use the body or any portion of the tool as a
hammer as nails may be discharged unexpectedly or
the tool may become damaged and serious injury could
occur.
○ Take precautions to ensure the safety of persons in the
vicinity during operation.
○ Ensure tool is always safely engaged on the workpiece
and cannot slip.
○ Never carry a pneumatic tool by its hose.
○ Never drag a pneumatic tool by its hose.
1. Nailing procedures
This HiKOKI nailer is equipped with a nailer operation
switching device.
Use SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
or CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM in accordance
with the work to be performed.
(1) Intermittent nailing
Set the switching device to the upward position (to set
to SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM)
(See Fig. 5).
Depress the nail outlet onto the desired point; then
pull the trigger to drive a nail in a single shot (See
Fig. 7).
After nailing once, nailing will not be possible again until
the trigger is released and pressed again.
WARNING
A nail will fi re each time the trigger is depressed as long
as the push lever remains depressed.
CAUTION
(2) Push lever
(3) Continuous nailing
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM is
for use where precision fastener placement is desired.
Gap
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may reduce the possibility of bodily injury to you or others
in the work area compared to the CONTACT ACTUATION
MECHANISM. This is because it is less likely to drive
an unwanted nail if you keep the trigger pulled and
accidentally bump the push lever against yourself or
others.
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may also reduce the speed of operation compared to
the CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM. The SINGLE
SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM is recommended
to inexperienced users.
CAUTION
○ Exercise care when nailing corners of lumber. When
○ Do not drive a nail on another nail.
○ Do not drive a nail on metal parts.
NOTE
○ Precautions on no-load operation
○ Always handle nails and package carefully. If nails are
○ After nailing:
2. Adjusting the nailing depth (See Fig. 10)
If you do not pull the trigger quickly and crisply while in
the single shot mode, the nailer will bounce and shoot
several nails instead of just one. To avoid this, be sure
to pull the trigger quickly and crisply.
When depressing the nail outlet, be sure to fully lift the
push lever (See Fig. 7) to release the safety lock. Thus,
nails cannot be driven without releasing the safety lock
even though the trigger is pulled.
Set the switching device to the downward position (to
set to CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM)
Fig. 8).
First, pull the trigger. Then depress the devise onto
the desired position to automatically drive nails (See
Fig. 9).
continuous nailing corners of lumber, a nail may go
astray or break through the corner.
Sometimes nailing will continue after driving in all nails
previously contained in the magazine.
This is termed "no-load operation". Such operation may
deteriorate the damper, magazine, and nail feeder.
To avoid no-load operation, occasionally confi rm the
amount of remaining nails. On the other hand, all nails
should be removed after using this nailer.
dropped, collating bond may be broken.
(1) disconnect air hose from the nailer;
(2) remove all nails from the nailer;
(3) supply 5 – 10 drops of HiKOKI pneumatic tool
lubricant into the air plug on the nailer; and
(4) open the petcock on the air compressor tank to
drain any moisture.
To assure that each nail penetrates to the same depth,
be sure that:
(1) the air pressure to the nailer remains constant
(regulator is installed and working properly), and
(2) the nailer is always held fi rmly against the
workpiece.
If nails are driven too deep or shallow into the workpiece,
adjust the nailing in the following order.
DISCONNECT AIR HOSE.
If nails are driven too deep, turn the adjuster to the
shallow side.
If nails are driven too shallow, turn the adjuster to
the deep side.
