OPERATION

REMOVING NAILS FROM THE TOOL

 Remove the battery pack.

 Depress the magazine release button.

 Remove nails and close the magazine.

SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE

See Figure 6, page ii.

The amount of air pressure required will depend on the

size of the nail and the workpiece material.

Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail into

the same type of workpiece material used for the actual

job.

 Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.

 Turn air pressure dial clockwise to increase air pressure

or counterclockwise for decreased pressure.

It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with

air pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are

needed, use the depth of drive adjustment on the tool.

NOTE: Under some conditions, the unit may not deliver a

nail when the air pressure dial is turned to the MAXIMUM

pressure setting. The user may need to decrease the pres-

sure setting for desired operation

DEPTH OF DRIVE ADJUSTMENT

See Figure 7, page ii.

The driving depth of the nail may be adjusted beyond

air pressure. It is advisable to test the depth on a scrap

workpiece to determine the required depth for the appli-

cation.

To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure

and drive a test nail. To achieve the desired depth, use the

depth of drive adjustment on the tool. Harder materials

and longer nails will require more force to drive the nail.

 Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.

 Turn the depth of drive adjustment left or right to

change the driving depth.

 Reinstall battery and reactivate the tool by pressing the

worklight grip switch.

 Drive a test nail after each adjustment until the desired

depth is set.

NOTE: Set depth of drive at the shallowest depth that

will meet your needs.

DRIVING BRAD NAILS

See Figures 8 - 9, page ii.

WARNING: Never wedge or hold back the

workpiece contact mechanism during operation of

the tool. Doing so could result in possible serious

injury.

The mode selector lets the operator choose between

Single Sequential Actuation for precise fastener place-

ment and Contact Actuation for higher productivity.

The tool will drive a nail each time the trigger is depressed,

as long as the workpiece contact is depressed.

Single sequential actuation mode:

Single sequential actuation provides the most accurate

nail placement.

 Remove battery pack from the tool.

 Slide the selector to position (

WARNING: The nailer will not function properly if

the selector is not securely seated in either position

( ) or ( ). Always assure the selector is seated

properly to avoid an unexpected nail discharge and

possible serious personal injury.

 Reinstall the battery, reactivate tool.

 Grip the tool firmly to maintain control. Position the

nose of the tool onto the work surface.

 Push the tool against the work surface to depress the

workpiece contact.

 Squeeze the trigger to drive a nail.

NOTE: Hold trigger until drive cycle is complete.

 Always remove your finger from the trigger when the

desired number of nails has been driven.

Contact actuation mode:

Contact actuation allows very fast repetitive nail place-

ment.

 Remove battery pack from the tool.

 Slide the selector to position (

 Reinstall the battery, reactivate tool.

 Grip the tool firmly to maintain control.

 Squeeze and hold the trigger. Push the tool against the

work surface to depress the workpiece contact and

drive a nail.

NOTE: Hold trigger 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 depressing the workpiece contact against the

surface and squeezing the trigger.
