OPERATION
CAUTION:
Make sure all safety systems are in
working order before operation.
Driving pin nails
WARNING:
Make sure to contact the nose
against the material before pulling the trigger.
Misfiring may result in personal injury.
1.
Place the nose on the material flatly, and hold the
tool firmly against the material.
2. Pull the lock lever, and pull the trigger fully to drive
the pin nail.
3. After driving a pin nail, be sure to release the
trigger and lock lever fully.
If the head of driven pin nail remains above the surface
of material, hold the pin nailer head firmly when driving
the pin nail.
NOTE: When the trigger is pulled after a quick trig-
ger action, the nailer may do nothing but operates
momentarily and not fire pin nail. In that case, release
the trigger and the lock lever fully before driving the
pin nail again.
NOTICE:
Do not use deformed nails or nail strip.
Failure to do so causes poor nail feeding.

When there are a few nails remaining in the magazine,
the trigger will be locked in the undepressed position to

vated, load more nails to resume operation.
