Lock the trigger. Slip the air socket of the air hose onto
the air fitting on the nailer. Be sure that the air socket
locks firmly into position when installed onto the air fit-
ting. A hose coupling must be installed on or near the tool
in such a way that the pressure reservoir will discharge at
the time the air supply coupling is disconnected.

piece with excessive force.
B. Pull the trigger fully and hold it on for 1-2 seconds after
nailing.
•
For No. 1 method, set the change lever to the "Inter-
mittent Nailing" position.
For No. 2 method, set the change lever to the "Con-
