RIDGID R09891 Manuel D'utilisation page 10

OPERATION
 Squeeze and hold the trigger. Push the tool against the
work surface to depress the workpiece contact and drive
a nail. To drive another nail, lift the tool and press the
contact against the work surface again.
NOTE: Hold trigger and keep workpiece contact
depressed until drive cycle is complete.
 Always remove your finger from the trigger when the
desired number of nails has been driven.
NOTE: In Contact Actuation Mode, the tool may also be
operated by pressing the workpiece contact against the
surface and squeezing the trigger.
WARNING:
During normal use the tool will recoil immediately
after driving a nail. This is a normal function of
the tool. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by
holding the nailer against the work. Restriction to
the recoil can result in a second nail being driven
from the nailer. Failure to heed this warning can
result in serious personal injury.
DRY-FIRE LOCKOUT
When the magazine has 0-5 nails remaining, the dry-fire
lockout feature will not allow continued operation.
To resume operation, reload the tool with nails.
LED WORKLIGHT
See Figures 9 - 10, page 14.
 To turn on the LEDs, press LED worklight grip switch
while firmly holding tool during operation.
DIAGNOSTIC FEEDBACK
The LED Worklight provides feedback to indicate whether
the battery pack is charged sufficiently and/or if the tool is
functioning properly.
If worklight is flashing, install fully charged battery. If light
continues to flash, see Troubleshooting section for more
information.
If the LED light goes out on your nailer, the unit has timed
out for your protection. Lift tool from the workpiece and
release trigger to activate the nailer before beginning next
drive cycle.
REMOVING NAILS FROM THE TOOL
See Figure 11, page 14.
WARNING:
Remove the battery pack before removing nails
or clearing a jammed nail. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury.
 Remove battery pack from the tool.
 To remove a strip of nails from the tool, depress the
magazine release button located at the rear of the
magazine and slide the magazine open.
 Remove nails.
 Close the magazine.
CLEARING A JAMMED NAIL
See Figure 12, page 14.
WARNING:
Remove the battery pack from the tool before
clearing a jammed nail. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
Driving too deeply into the material, excess debris, or
jammed nails may lead to the driver mechanism being stuck
at its bottom position.
The driver mechanism can usually be returned to its
operating position by depressing the workpiece contact
against a scrap piece of wood and squeezing the trigger.
If this does not automatically return the driver mechanism
into the tool, the tool may be jammed.
If a nail or fastener becomes jammed in the tool, remove
the battery pack and keep the tool pointed away from you
while clearing the jam.
 Remove battery pack from the tool.
 Open magazine and remove nails from the tool.
 Pull up on the latch and open the jam release.
 Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the driving mechanism
and push the driver mechanism back, freeing the nail jam.
 Remove the bent nail.
 Close the jam release and latch.
 Reinstall nails and close the magazine.
 Reinstall battery and activate the tool by pressing the
LED worklight grip switch.
