Always hold the tool pointing in a safe direction.
•
• Never attempt to drive nails into materials that are too hard, at too great an angle or close to the
edge of the workpiece. Nails can ricochet and cause personal injury.
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before carrying out any maintenance on the tool, removing a jammed
nail, leaving the work area, moving the tool, handing it over to someone else or adjusting it in any way.
Clean and inspect the tool daily. Inspect the trigger and safety mechanism carefully to ensure they are
working. Do not use the tool unless both the trigger and the safety mechanism are working. Do not use it if
it is leaking air or needs repairing.
The depth to which a nail is driven is regulated by the depth adjustment (A) (fig. 6). The depth is pre-set at
the factory to the maximum setting. Loosen the screw (B) (fig. 6), slide the depth adjustment to the position
required and tighten the screw. Slide the safety bracket (A) (fig. 6) upwards to increase the depth of drive
and downwards to decrease it. Now fire a nail and check whether the depth is right. Repeat until the depth
is just right. The depth setting determines the amount of air pressure required. Always use the lowest
possible setting. Excess air pressure will wear and/or damage the tool prematurely.
Clean and inspect every day
IMPORTANT! Disconnect the tool from the air supply before cleaning and inspection. Correct all problems
before using the tool again.
Clean the tool and inspect it for wear and damage. If necessary, clean the outside of the tool with a non-
flammable cleaning solution. Do not soak the tool in cleaning solution. This can damage the internal parts.
Inspect the trigger and the safety mechanism to ensure they are complete and in perfect working order.
There must be no loose, missing or binding parts.
Always keep screw connections tight. Loose screws can cause personal injury or damage to the tool.
If the tool is operated without a lubricator, add 5 or 6 drops of pneumatic oil into the air inlet of the tool at
the start of each workday.
Service and repairs
All quality tools eventually need servicing and replacement of parts due to normal wear and tear. See the
TROUBLESHOOTING section for information about parts that can be served by the user. All repairs that
are carried out by local agencies are fully guaranteed against defective material and workmanship. The
warranty does not cover repairs carried out by anyone other than these agencies.
Please contact us if you have any questions about your tool. Always state the information shown on the
tool's type plate (model number, type, serial number, etc.).
