NAILING TONGUE AND GROOVE FLOORING
Your Model NT50YF Nailer is furnished with two ( 2 ) Shoe Bases ( Ref. No. 5 ).
When nailing 3/4" thick flooring, both of these bases are used. When nailing 33/32"
thick flooring, only use one ( 1 ) Shoe Base ( Ref. No. 5 ).
1.
After squaring the Floor and allowing for expansion as recommended by the
Wood Flooring Industry ( NWFA, NOFMA and MFMA ), place the grooved edge
of the first row of Flooring towards the wall on the side of the room from which
you are starting. Face Nail in place by hand or by using the Model NT50YF
Nailer with the Face Shoe ( Sold Separately ) installed. ( See Shoe Changing
Section Pg. 11 ).
2.
After Face nailing the First ( 1st ) row of Flooring, place the groove of the Sec-
ond ( 2nd ) row of Flooring over the Tongue of the First ( 1st ) row of Flooring
and drive snug using the rubber knob end of the Hammer and Face nail in
place just as the First ( 1st ) Row of Flooring.
3.
You are now ready to Blind Nail the field of Flooring.
4.
Position the Nailer along the Tongue edge of the Third ( 3rd ) Row of Flooring
in the manner shown in Figure 8. ( THE FIELD SHOULD BE NAILED ONLY
THRU THE TONGUE. SEE ILLUSTRATION ON PAGE 9 ).
5.
Strike the Ram Head ( Ref. No. 21 ) with the metal end of the Hammer Head to
drive the Nail.
6.
Continue to strike the Ram Head ( Ref. No. 21 ) until the Ram returns to its
original position. ( It usually takes two blows to drive a nail. )
7.
If, after striking the Ram Head ( Ref. No. 21 ), the Ram does not return to its
original position, it is a warning that the Nail has not been completely driven.
8.
When the Nail has been completely driven, the Ram will return to its original
position.
9.
Be careful not to drive one Nail on top of another. Damage to the Nailer might
result if this should occur.
10. Slide the Nailer along the tongue of the board to the location at which you
desire to drive the next nail. ( 8-10 inches is the general rule of thumb. ) Try to
get a nail in each Joist.
11. Continue Steps 5-10 until you have completely nailed the board.
12. Repeat Steps 4-11 until all but the last Six ( 6 ) Rows of boards have been
nailed in place.
13. Face Nail the last Six ( 6 ) Rows of Flooring.
