Tool Specifications; Air Supply And Connections - Porter Cable TS056 Manuel D'instructions

Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power source for this tool as tool may explode, possibly
causing injury.
Do not use supply sources which can potentially exceed 200 PSI as tool may burst, possibly causing injury.
The connector on the tool must not hold pressure when air supply is disconnected. If a wrong fitting is used, the tool can
remain charged with air after disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a fastener even after the air line is disconnected
possibly causing injury.
Do not pull trigger while connected to the air supply as the tool may cycle, possibly causing injury.
Always disconnect air supply: 1.) Before making adjustments; 2.) When servicing the tool; 3.) When clearing a jam; 4.) When
tool is not in use; 5.) When moving to a different work area, as accidental actuation may occur, possibly causing injury; 6.)
Before placing tool on any surface, hanging tool on belt, or otherwise temporarily suspending use of the tool.
OPERATION
Always handle the tool with care: 1.) Never engage in horseplay; 2.) Never pull or grasp the secondary trigger unless nose
is directed toward the work; 3.) Keep others a safe distance from the tool while tool is in operation as accidental actuation
may occur, possibly causing injury.
The operator must not hold the secondary trigger pulled except during fastening operation as serious injury could result
if the trigger accidentally contacts someone or something, causing the tool to cycle.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area of the tool.
Check operation of the secondary trigger mechanism frequently. Do not use the tool if the secondary trigger is not working
correctly as accidental actuation of a fastener may result. Do not interfere with the proper operation of the secondary
trigger mechanism.
Never inadvertently pull or grasp the secondary trigger when moving about, changing work location, when holstering or
hanging tool, or when preparing work surface for fastening operation.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other fasteners or with the tool at an overly steep angle as this may cause deflection of
fasteners which could cause injury.
Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the work piece as the wood may split, allowing the fastener to be deflected
possibly causing injury.
This stapler produces SPARKS during operation. NEVER use the stapler near flammable substances, gases or vapors including
lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, adhesives, mastics, glues or any other material that is -- or the vapors, fumes or
byproducts of which are -- flammable, combustible or explosive. Using the stapler in any such environment could cause an
EXPLOSION resulting in personal injury or death to user and bystanders. damage.
MAINTAINING THE TOOL
When working on air tools note the warnings in this manual and use extra care when
evaluating problem tools.

TOOL AIR FITTING:
This tool uses a free-flow connector plug, 1/4" N.P.T. The minimum inside diameter should be .200" (5mm). The fitting must be capable of discharging
tool air pressure when disconnected from the air supply.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
80 to 100 PSI (5.5 to 6.9 bars). Select the operating pressure within this range for best fastener performance. DO NOT EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED
OPERATING PRESSURE.
AIR CONSUMPTION:
Model TS056 requires 0.41 cubic feet per min (c.f.m.) of free air to operate at the rate of 100 fasteners per minute, at 100 PSI (6.9 bars). Take the actual
rate at which the tool will be run to determine the amount of air required. For instance, if your fastener usage averages 50 fasteners per minute, you need
50% of the tool's c.f.m. of free air which is required for running at 100 fasteners per minute.
