workpiece or the other surface under the influence of
recoil.
In order to avoid this unexpected nailing, perform as
follows;
A. Do not place the contact element against the workpiece
with excessive force.
B. Pull the trigger fully and hold it on for 1-2 seconds after
nailing.
Direction of exhaust air (Fig. 12)
The direction of exhaust air can be changed 360 degrees
of angle by turning the exhaust cover with a hand.
Removing nails
CAUTION:
• Do not use deformed nails or nail strip. Failure to do so
causes poor nail feeding.
WARNING:
• Always disconnect the hose before removing nails.
Open the slide door and remove nails from the magazine.
(Fig. 13)
With the slide door kept open, open the door and take out
nails.
Removing the contact top allows nails to be easily taken
out. When re-installing the contact top, insert the
prorusion of the contact top into the notch in the contact
arm. (Fig. 14 & 15)
Nails
Handle nail coils and their box carefully. If the nail coils
have been handled roughly, they may be out of shape or
their connector breaks, causing poor nail feed. (Fig. 16)
Avoid storing nails in a very humid or hot place or place
exposed to direct sunlight. (Fig. 17)
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the hose before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose
screws before operation. Tighten as required. (Fig. 18)
With tool disconnected, make daily inspection to assure
free movement of the contact element and trigger. Do not
use tool if the contact element or trigger sticks or binds.
(Fig. 19)
When the tool is not to be used for an extended period of
time, lubricate the tool using pneumatic tool oil and store
the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight
and/or humid or hot environment. (Fig. 20 & 21)
Maintenance of compressor, air set and
air hose
After operation, always drain the compressor tank and the
air filter. If moisture is allowed to enter the tool, It may
result in poor performance and possible tool failure.
(Fig. 22 & 23)
Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic oil in
the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient
lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly. (Fig. 24)
Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over
140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or
alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which it
may become dangerously caught on during operation.
Hoses must also be directed away from sharp edges and
areas which may lead to damage or abrasion to the hose.
(Fig. 25)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance and adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
CAUTION:
• These accessories or attachments are recommended
for use with your Makita tool specified in this manual.
The use of any other accessories or attachments might
present a risk of injury to persons. Only use accessory
or attachment for its stated purpose.
If you need any assistance for more details regarding
these accessories, ask your local Makita Service Center.
• Nails
• Air hoses
• Safety goggles
NOTE:
• Some items in the list may be included in the tool
package as standard accessories. They may differ from
country to country.
Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined according
to EN792:
Sound pressure level (L
Sound power level (L
Uncertainty (K): 3 dB (A)
Wear ear protection.
Vibration
The vibration total value determined according to EN792:
Vibration emission (a
Uncertainty (K): 1.5 m/s
• The declared vibration emission value has been
measured in accordance with the standard test method
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the
operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in
the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts
of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool
is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
