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:
The operating pressure of the T50 tool is 70 to 100 p.s.i. (4.9 to 7.1 kg/cm
within this range for best fastener performance. DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING
PRESSURE.
AIR CONSUMPTION:
Model T50 requires 3.0 cubic feet per minute (.08 cubic meters) of free air to operate at the rate of 100
fasteners per minute, at 80 p.s.i. (5.6kg/cm
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.
OPERATION
BOSTITCH OFFERS THREE TYPES OF OPERATION FOR THIS SERIES TOOL.
CONTACT TRIP:
The common operating procedure on "Contact Trip" tools is for the operator to contact the work to actuate the
trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the work is contacted. This
will allow rapid fastener placement on many jobs, such as sheathing, decking and pallet assembly. All
pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if
unintentionally allowed to recontact the work surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding trigger
pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP:
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This
makes accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on framing, toe nailing and crating applications.The
Sequential Trip allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil, as
described under "Contact Trip". The Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not
accidentally drive a fastener if the tool is contacted against the work – or anything else – while the operator is
holding the trigger pulled.
TRIGGER OPERATED:
The Trigger Operated model is cycled by actuation of the trigger ONLY. This model does not have a Contact
Arm and is intended for use only where a Contact Arm CANNOT be used to satify the requirements of the
application. The Trigger Operated tool will cycle each time the trigger is actuated.
