FUNCTIONAL
DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
Before adjusting or checking func-
tion on the tool, always release the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the tool.
Adjusting depth of nailing
► Fig.5: 1. Adjuster
To adjust the depth of nailing, turn the adjuster.
The depth of nailing is the deepest when the adjuster
is turned fully in the A direction shown in the figure. It
will become shallower as the adjuster is turned in the B
direction.
If nails cannot be driven deep enough even when the
adjuster is turned fully in the A direction, increase the
air pressure.
If nails are driven too deep even when the adjuster is
turned fully in the B direction, decrease the air pressure.
Generally speaking, the tool service life will be longer
when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the
adjuster set to deeper depth of nail driving.
Hook
CAUTION:
Never hook the tool at high loca-
tion or on potentially unstable surface.
CAUTION:
Do not hang the hook from the
waist belt. If the nailer accidentally drops, it may
result in misfiring and personal injuries.
► Fig.6: 1. Hook
The hook is convenient for hanging the tool temporarily.
Air duster
CAUTION:
Do not aim the ejection port of the
air duster to someone. Also, keep your hands and
foot away from the ejection port. If the air duster
button is accidentally pushed, it may cause a per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION:
Always check your surroundings
before using the air duster. Blown dust or objects
may hit someone.
CAUTION:
Do not connect or disconnect the
air hose while pushing the air duster button.
The air supplied to the tool can also be used as an air
duster. You can clean the work area by pressing the
button on the grip end.
► Fig.7: 1. Button
NOTICE:
After using the air duster, the driving force
of the tool will temporarily decline. Wait until the air
pressure recovers in this case.
NOTICE:
Perform a test blow if you use the air
duster immediately after the oil was applied. The oil
may be sprayed with the air.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Before carrying out any work on
the tool, always release the trigger and discon-
nect the air hose from the tool.
