  • Page 6: Explanation Of The Nailing Operation

    5-2. Explanation of the Nailing Operation To meet the requirements of "ANSI SNT-101-2002", the Model NR 83AA3 is equipped with a nailing operation switching device as shown in the figures below. Use SINGLE ACTUATION MECHANISM (SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM) or CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM in accordance with the work to be performed.
  • Page 7: Nail Selection

    NR 83AA2. CAUTION: Ensure that nails are as specified in Fig. 1. The Model NR 83AA3 utilizes D-head (clipped head) nails collated at an angle of 34 degrees which are the same as the nails utilized by a competitor's model Paslode. However, some D-head nails made by other makers are collated at a different angle of 26 degrees.
  • Page 8: Nail Driving Force

    For example, when driving a nail of 3.3 mm dia. by 83 mm length (0.131" x 3-1/4") into nine sheets of 12 mm plywood (108 mm thick ) with the Model NR 83AA3, a pressure of about 7.0 bar (7.1 kgf/cm , 102 psi) allows the nailer to drive the nail flush with the wood surface.
  • Page 9: Optional Accessories

    A full sequential actuation mechanism kit (sequential trip mechanism kit) is provided as an optional accessory for the Model NR 83AA3. By using this optional accessory, a nail is driven by pressing the push lever first against a workpiece and then pulling the trigger (single-shot operation), and no nail is driven when pulling the trigger first and then pressing the push lever against a workpiece.

    7. PRECAUTIONS IN SALES PROMOTION In the interest of promoting the safest and most efficient use of the Model NR 83AA3 Nailer by all of our customers, it is very important that at the time of sale the salesperson carefully ensures that the buyer seriously recognizes the importance of the contents of the Instruction Manual, and fully understands the meaning of the precautions listed on the Warning Label attached to each tool.
  • Page 12: Related Laws And Regulations

    7-3. Related Laws and Regulations As nailers and staplers are designed to instantaneously drive nails and staples, there is an ever-present danger of misfiring and subsequent possible serious injury. Accordingly, close attention in handling is absolutely necessary at all times. Carefully ensure that the customer is fully aware of the precautions listed in the Instruction Manual provided with each unit.
  • Page 13: Mechanism And Operation Principle

    The basic construction of the Model NR 83AA3 is the same as that of the Model NR 83AA2. The magazine section is common to that of the Model NR 83AA2. However, most of the parts of the control valve section were newly designed to provide the single actuation (single sequential actuation)/contact actuation mechanisms in order to correspond to the modification of the ANSI standard.

  • Page 20 Air pressure is applied in the shaded areas in the illustration, and each component is held in the position illustrated. If the operator's grip is loosened, air will leak. As there is no o-ring installed here, a very small amount of air will leak from the slight clearance between the components.

    9-2. Regrinding the Driver Blade The tip of the driver blade should be ground as shown in Fig. 8. To grind with a grinder, gradually grind the tip while cooling the ground area with water to prevent it from being excessively heated. Excessive grinding will rapidly reduce the service life of the driver blade.
