(Example)

Year 2008
2 DO NOT FIRE THE NAILER WHEN IT IS
EMPTY
3 USE A 3-PIECE AIRSET
Failure to use a 3-piece airset allows the
moisture and dirt inside compressor to pass
into the tool directly. This causes rust and
wear, and results in a poor operating per-
formance. The hose length between airset
and tool should be no longer than 5 m since
a longer length results in a reduction in air
pressure.
4 USE RECOMMENDED OIL
The velocite or turbine oil should be used to
lubricate the tool. Upon completion of opera-
tions, place 2 or 3 drops of oil into the air plug
inlet with the jet oiler. (Recommended Oil :
ISO VG32)
5 INSPECT AND MAINTAIN DAILY OR BE-
FORE OPERATION
WARNING
Disconnect air supply and empty the maga-
zine when inspecting or maintaining the tool.
(1) Drain air line filter and compressor
(2) Keep lubricator filled in air 3-pieces set
(3) Clean filter element of air 3-pieces set
(4) Tighten all screws
(5) Keep contact arm moving smoothly
7. STORAGE
1 When not in use for an extended period, ap-
ply a thin coat of the lubricant to the steel
parts to avoid rust.
2 Do not store the tool in a cold weather envi-
ronment. Keep the tool in a warm area.
3 When not in use, the tool should be stored in
