Firing Modes (Fig. E)
The tool has two driving modes:
Sequential fire:
• Choose the correct mode by rotating the firing mode selector
switch (1).
• Lightly push the tool towards the work surface until the nose piece
(8) is depressed.
• Then, squeeze the trigger to drive the fasteners. Whilst maintaining
contact with the work surface, the tool will drive
a fastener each time the trigger is depressed.
Contact trip (Bump fire):
• Choose the correct mode by rotating the firing mode selector
switch (1).
• Depress the trigger and whilst holding the trigger squeezed,
repeatedly impact the nose piece (8) on the work surface.
• The tool will drive one fastener each time the nose piece (8)
is impacted.
NOTE: The air deflector (12) is directional and can be rotated
through 360° (Fig. F).
Removing a Jammed Fastener (Fig. G)
NOTE: You must remove any jammed fasteners before using the tool
any further. If you continue to try and fire a fastener while the tool
is jammed, you could cause damage to the mechanism.
• Disconnect tool from the compressed air system.
• Remove any unused fasteners from the magazine channel, this
should clear the jammed fastener(s).
• Remove any jammed fasteners from the nose piece by opening the
quick release nose gate (10).
• Release the latch on the nose gate and open up the nose plate (9).
Any jammed fastener(s) will be visible and can be removed.
• Close the nose plate and lock the latch before reconnecting to
the air system.
:
CAUTION Never release the nose gate if there are fasteners in the
magazine channel. This could cause the fasteners to fire out of the
front of the tool and could lead to serious injury.
• Following the removal of a jammed fastener, always carefully test
the tool function before proceeding with any work. If fasteners
become jammed in the nose piece frequently, have the tool
serviced by a Tacwise Engineer or appointed service agent.
Regular Maintenance
• Frequent, but not excessive, lubrication is required for best
performance. Oil added through the airline connection will lubricate
internal parts. An automatic airline oiler is recommended but oil
may be added manually before every operation or after about 1 hour
of continuous use. Only a few drops of oil at a time are necessary.
Too much oil will collect inside the tool and be blown out during the
exhaust cycle. ONLY USE PNEUMATIC TOOL OIL.
Do not use detergent oil or additives, as these lubricants will
cause accelerated wear to the seal in the tool.
• Use a small amount of oil on all moving surface and pivots.
• Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of pneumatic tool
wear. Use a filter/oiler for better performance and longer life. The
filter must have adequate flow capacity for the specific application.
Consult the manufacturer's instructions for proper maintenance
of your filter.
• Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Use
non-flammable cleaning solutions (CAUTION: Such solutions
may damage O-ring and other tool parts) only if necessary
- DO NOT SOAK.
