The air compressor must comply with the requirements
of EN60335-2-34.
Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air
output to assure cost-efficient operation. The graph
shows the relation
applicable pressure and compressor air output.
Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of
approximately 50 times per minute at a compression of
1.76 MPa (17.6 bar), a compressor with an air output
over 90 liters/minute is required.
Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to the
rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure exceeds
the tool's rated pressure. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury to tool operator or persons in the vicinity.
Selecting air hose
Fig.1
Use a high pressure resistant air hose.
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, efficient nailing operation.
CAUTION:
Low air output of the compressor, or a long or
•
smaller diameter air hose in relation to the nailing
frequency may cause a decrease in the driving
capability of the tool.
Lubrication
Before and after use, oil the tool with pneumatic tool oil
by placing two or three drops into the air fitting. For
proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the air hose before adjusting or
•
checking function on the tool.
Adjusting the nailing depth
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the hose before adjusting the
•
depth of nailing.
Fig.3
Fig.4
If nails are driven too deep, turn the adjuster clockwise.
If nails are driven too shallow, turn the adjuster
countercolockwise.
The adjustable range is 0 - 6 mm. (One full turn allows
0.8 mm adjustment.)
Hook
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the hose when hanging the tool
•
using the hook.
Never hang the tool on a waist belt or like.
•
Dangerous accidental firing may result.
Fig.5
The hook is convenient for hanging the tool temporarily.
This hook can be installed on either side of the tool.
When changing the installation position, remove the
screw with a screwdriver. Install the hook on another
side for installation and then secure it with the screw.
Use the nose adapter
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the hose before installing or
•
removing the nose adapter.
Fig.6
If you like to protect the surface of worpiece, attach the
nose adapter of contact trip.
When nailing workpieces with easily-marred surfaces,
use the nose adapter. To attach the nose adapter to the
contact arm, press it onto the contact arm until the
protrusion in three places inside the nose adapter fit in
three holes in the contact arm.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the air hose before loading the
•
nailer.
Loading the nailer
CAUTION:
Make sure that the coil support plate is set to the
•
correct step for used nails.
