1. Power source
○ Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air as a
power source for this Nailer.
○ Air compressors used to supply compressed air to this
Nailer must comply with the requirements of the latest
version of ANSI Standard B 19.3 "Safety Standard For
Compressors For Process Industries".
○ Moisture or oil in the air compressor may accelerate
wear and corrosion in the Nailer.
Drain daily.
2. Filter-Regulator-Lubricator
○ Use a regulator with a pressure range of 0 – 100 psi
(0 – 6.9 bar 0 – 7 kgf/cm
○ Filter-regulator-lubricator units supply an optimum
condition for the Nailer and extend the Nailer life.
These units should always be used.
Filter ................ The fi lter removes moisture and dirt
mixed in compressed air.
Drain daily unless fi tted with an
automatic drain.
Keep the fi lter clean by regular
maintenance.
Regulator ......... The regulator controls the operating
pressure for safe operation of the
Nailer.
Inspect the regulator before operation
to be sure it operates properly.
Lubricator ........ The lubricator supplies an oil mist to
the Nailer.
Inspect
operation to be sure the supply of
lubricant is adequate.
Use metabo HPT pneumatic tool
lubricant.

3. Air hose
Compressed air supply hoses shall have a minimum
working pressure rating equal to or greater than the
pressure from the power source if a regulator fails, or

Air compressor size formula
Amount of air required
= number of Nailers
× average nails driven each minute per Nailer
× air consumption at given air pressure
× safety factor (always 1.2)
Example: 3 Nailers operating at 100 psi driving 30
nails per minute
Amount of air required
= 3 × 30 × .021 (.6) × 1.2
= 2.27 CFM (ft /min) (64.8 ltr/min)

After making the calculations as shown above, you
should fi nd a compressor providing 2.27 CFM of air
that is required.
LOCK MECHANISM OF THE TRIGGER
This device has a lock mechanism to prevent the trigger
from pulling.
Set the lock knob to "Lock" position to lock the trigger in
place.
To drive a nail, turn the lock knob to the "Free" position.
When not driving nails, set the knob to the "Lock" position.

CAUTION
● Keep the trigger locked at all times except
whendriving nails.
