Under low use, lubricate once a day. Under heavy use,
lubricate twice a day. To lubricate, insert 2-3 drops of
lubricant into the air supply fitting attached to the tool
handle (FIG 4). Using too much oil will cause it to collect in
the tool and be noticeable in the exhaust.

FIG. 2
Do not use detergent oil, WD-40, transmission fluid, motor
oil, or other lubricants not specifically designated as air tool
lubricants. These lubricants will cause accelerated wear to
the seals, o-rings, and bumpers in the tool, resulting in poor
tool performance and frequent maintenance.

ADJUSTING AIR PRESSURE

Adjust the air pressure at recommended operating pressure
70-115PSI according to the length of nails and the hardness
of workpiece.
The correct air pressure is the lowest pressure which will do
the job. Using the tool at a higher than required air pressure
unnecessarily over stresses the tool. Don't exceed 115PSI.

CONNECTING AIR SUPPLY

WARNING
Never use oxygen or other bottled gases as a power
source. Explosion may occur. Combustible gases and
other bottled gases are dangerous and may cause the
tool to explode.
WARNING
Never connect the tool to an air source that is capable
of producing air pressure exceeding 200PSI. Excessive
pressure can cause abnormal operation or cause the tool to
burst, resulting in personal injury.

5 - ENG LISH
WARNING
Do not exceed maximum recommended air pressure
marked on the tool. Verify prior to using the tool that the
air source has been adjusted within the rated air-pressure
rang. Be sure the air pressure gauge is operating properly
and check it at least twice a day. Tools operated in excess of
their maximum pressure rating may operate abnormally or
burst resulting in personal injury.
To connect the tool to the compressor only use
pneumatic air hoses that meet the following criteria:
1. Minimum hose pressure rating, 200PSI.
2. Minimum hose inner diameter, 1/4 inch (6.4 mm).
3. Maximum hose length, 100 feet (30.5 meters).
FIG. 6
Connect the air supply:
• Snap the air hose onto the quick connector.
• Check for air leakage. If leakage is noted, cease using
the tool immediately and have the tool repaired by a
qualified service technician.
• Be sure the air pressure gauge is operating properly and
check it at least twice a day.

NAIL LOADING

WARNING
Connecting the air supply before loading nails reduces the
risk of unintentionally driving a nail and injuring yourself or
someone else.
LOADING CLEAT NAILS
1. Connect air supply.
2. Pull the pusher back to the end of magazine. Lock pusher
in the place by lock button. Then pull the magazine side
shelter back.
3. Place full clip of desired fasteners into magazine from the
side. Up to 100 cleat nails can be loaded into magazine.
Be noted that, when holding the L cleat nails, the side
with the L head should be in the left of the magazine side
shelter. Press the lock button, then the pusher set back
to make the magazine side shelter down back.
