The D
WALT cordless nailers are assembled in accordance
e
with the ANSI Standard SNT-101-2002.
The finish nailer is capable of firing nails using bump
actuation or sequential actuation. If you would like to
have the bump actuation mode disabled, have the tool
serviced by an authorized D
e
operating this tool, look at the selector switch to determine
the actuation mode. Read all instructions before selecting
actuation mode.
WARNING: Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not
driving nails to avoid accidental fastener discharge.
NEVER carry tool with finger on trigger. In bump
mode tool will drive a nail if contact trip is bumped
while trigger is depressed.
Sequential Actuation
Use sequential actuation mode for intermittent nailing
where very careful and accurate placement and depth
control is desired. The sequential actuation mode provides
the maximum delivery of power for driving the longest nails.

Bump action
(Fig. E)
Bump action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary
surfaces and typically most effective for applications that
require driving shorter nails.
When the tool is set in the bump actuation mode, two
methods of tool operation are available: place actuation
and bump actuation.

To operate the tool using the place actuation
method:
WARNING: A nail will be driven each time the
trigger is depressed as long as the contact trip
remains depressed.
1. Depress the contact trip against the work surface.
2. Depress the trigger.
To operate the tool using the bump actuation
method:
1. Depress the trigger.
2. Push the contact trip against the work surface. As long
as the trigger is depressed, the tool will drive a nail every
time the contact trip is depressed. This allows the user
to drive multiple nails in sequence.
WARNING: Do not keep trigger depressed when tool
is not in use. Keep the trigger lock-off in the locked
position when the tool is not in use.
WARNING: When the tool's motor is running, pulling
the trigger or depressing the contact trip will cause a
nail to be driven.
Preparing the Tool
WARNING: NEVER spray or in any other way apply
lubricants or cleaning solvents inside the tool. This can
seriously affect the life and performance of the tool.
