• Fasteners are driven in too deeply: To reduce the driving depth, turn the depth adjustment wheel to the right.
• Test the new driving depth on a test workpiece. Repeat steps above as required.
Operating the tool
• Test the driving depth in a sample piece of wood before using. See section Adjusting the depth.
• Connect the tool to the air supply. Make sure the air pressure is in correct range denoted in section of Technical data.
• Load fasteners as directed in the section called Loading the fasteners.
• Hold the body of the tool and press the nose to the work surface, be sure the tool is straight and then gently depress the trigger to drive the fastener.
• Lift the tool off the work surface.
Firing modes (Fig. E)
The tool has two driving modes:
Sequential fire:
• Choose the correct mode before firing by rotating the firing mode selector switch.
• Put the nose on the working surface, lightly push the tool toward the working surface until the safety contact nose is depressed, then, depress the trigger to
drive the fasteners.
• Whilst maintaining contact with the working surface, the tool will drive a fastener each time the trigger is depressed.
• Contact trip (Bump fire):
• Choose the correct mode before firing by rotating the firing mode selector switch.
• Depress the trigger and whilst holding the trigger squeezed, repeatedly impact the nose on the work surface.
• The tool will drive one fastener when the safety contact nose is impacted once.
NOTE: The air deflector (Fig. F) is directional and can be rotated through 360°.
Removing a jammed fastener
NOTE: You must remove any jammed fasteners before using the tool any further. If you continue to try to fire a fastener while the tool is jammed, you could
cause damage to the mechanism.
• Disconnect the tool from the compressed air system.
• Remove any unused fasteners from the magazine channel; this should clear the jammed fastener(s).
• If any fasteners remain stuck in the nose, place the tool upside down on a solid surface.
• Put a punch or small screwdriver into the nose and carefully tap to release the jammed fastener.
• Close the magazine release latch ensuring it is locked firmly into place before reconnecting to the air system.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to unjam the nose if there are fasteners in the magazine channel. This could cause the fasteners to fire out of the front of the tool and
could lead to serious injury.
• Following the removal of a jammed fastener, always carefully test the tool function before proceeding with any work. If fasteners become jammed frequently,
have the tool serviced by a Tacwise Engineer or appointed service agent.
