Firing Mechanism - Grizzly H7826 Owner's Manual

Firing Mechanism

The nailer should not fire when connected
to the air supply unless it is fired by hitting
the "whack cap" with the mallet. If the fir-
ing mechanism is not working properly,
the nailer could fire immediately when
connected to the air supply.
Before you load your nailer for the first
time, check the firing mechanism to
ensure safe use.
To check the firing mechanism:
1. Make sure the nailer is disconnect-
ed from the air supply!
2. Make sure the magazine is empty and
contains no nails.
3. Place the flooring nailer on the ground
with the nail aperture facing down,
then connect the air hose. The nailer
should not fire.
— If it does not fire, read step 4.
— If the nailer does fire, immediately
disconnect the nailer from the air
supply and call (570) 546-9663 for
technical support.
Point the nailer at the ground when
connecting to the air supply. DO NOT
aim in the direction of another person
or a body part.
