let the tool do the work, and do not place a second
hand on top of the tool.

Single Sequential Actuation Operation
1. Grip the handle firmly.
2. Push the tool against the work surface, compressing
the workpiece contact.
3. Pull the trigger to drive the fastener. WARNING! To
avoid serious injury, do not attempt to prevent the
recoil by holding the tool too firmly against the work.
4. Remove your finger from the trigger and remove the
tool from the workpiece.
Contact (Bump) Actuation Operation
Contact Actuation can follow two different sequences,
depending on your use.
Multiple actuations:
1. Grip the handle firmly.
2. Pull and hold the trigger.
3. Push the tool against the work surface, compress-
ing the workpiece contact to drive the fastener.
WARNING! To avoid serious injury, do not attempt
to prevent the recoil by holding the tool too firmly
against the work.
4. Continue to hold the trigger and repeat workpiece
contact.
Single actuation:
1. Grip the handle firmly.
2. Push the tool against the work surface, compressing
the workpiece contact.
3. Pull the trigger to drive the fastener. WARNING! To
avoid serious injury, do not attempt to prevent the
recoil by holding the tool too firmly against the work.
4. Remove your finger from the trigger and remove the

to turn off the
the tool away from yourself
and others when making
adjustments. Failure to do so
could result in injury.
4. Turn the depth selector left or

Most jams are caused by a fastener or part of a fastener
wedging between the driver blade and the nail guide.
Fastener strips with an incorrect collation angle or the
wrong fastener gauge may cause continuous jamming.
To clear the jam:
1. Remove battery pack.
2. WARNING! Always point the tool away from yourself
and others when installing or removing fasteners.
Failure to do so could result in injury.
3. Remove fastener strip from magazine.
4. Remove the fastener using needle-nose pliers.
If necessary, remove magazine from tool.
5. Follow the steps under "Required Daily Testing"
before restarting the work.
