SUPPLY SOURCE:
Use only clean regulated compressed air as a power source for this tool. NEVER USE
OXYGEN, COMBUSTIBLE GASES, OR BOTTLED GASES, AS A POWER SOURCE FOR THIS TOOL
AS TOOL MAY EXPLODE.
REGULATOR:
A pressure regulator with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 p.s.i. (0 - 8.79 KG/CM
the operatiing pressure for safe operation of this tool. Do not connect this tool to air pressure which can
potentially exceed 200 p.s.i. (14 KG/CM
OPERATING PRESSURE:
Do not exceed recommended maximum operating pressure as tool wear will be greatly increased. The
air supply must be capable of maintaining the operating pressure at the tool. Pressure drops in the air
supply can reduce the tool's driving power. Refer to "TOOL
SPECIFICATIONS" for setting the correct operating pressure for the tool.
FILTER:
Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of wear in pneumatic tools. A filter will help to get the
best performance and minimum wear from the tool. The filter must have adequate flow capacity for the
specific installation. The filter has to be kept clean to be effective in providing clean compressed air to
the tool. Consult the manufacturer's instructions on proper maintenance of your filter. A dirty and
clogged filter will cause a pressure drop which will reduce the tool's performance.
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best performance. Oil added through the air line connection
will lubricate the internal parts. Use PORTER CABLE Air Tool Lubricant, Mobil Velocite #10, or equivalent. Do not
use detergent oil or additives as these lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in the tool,
resulting in poor tool performance and frequent tool maintenance.
If no airline lubricator is used, add oil during use into the air fitting on the tool once or twice a day. Only a few
drops of oil at a time is necessary. Too much oil will only collect inside the tool and will be noticeable in the exhaust
cycle.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION:
When operating tools at temperatures below freezing:
1. Make sure compressor tanks have been properly drained prior to use.
2. Keep tool as warm as possible prior to use.
3. Make certain all fasteners have been removed from magazine.
4. Lower air pressure to 80 psi or less.
5. Reconnect air and and load nails into magazine.
6. Actuate the tool 5 or 6 times into scrap lumber to lubricate o-rings.
7. Turn pressure up to operating level (not to exceed 120 psi) and use tool as normal.
8. Always drain the compressor tanks at least once a daily.
Do not store tools in a cold weather environment to prevent frost or ice formation on the
tools operating valves and mechanisms that could cause tool failure.
Some commercial air line drying liquids are harmful to "O"-rings and seals – do not use
these low temperature air dryers without checking compatibility.
