Adjusting The Nailing Depth - Hitachi NT 50AE2 (S) Instruction And Safety Manual

● A nail will fi re each time the trigger is
depressed as long as the push lever remains
depressed.
(2) Continuous operation (Push lever fi re)
Using CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM
● To avoid double fi ring or accidental fi ring due
to recoil.
1) Do not press the nailer against the wood
with excessive force.
2) Separate the nailer from the wood as it
recoils after nailing.
1 Set the switching device to the downward position
(to set to CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM).
(Set the switching device to the downward
position completely as shown in the diagram.
Otherwise, it will not operate properly.)
2 Pull the trigger with the Nailer off the workpiece.
3 Depress the push lever against the workpiece to
drive a nail.
4 Move the Nailer along the workpiece with a
bouncing motion.
Each depression of the push lever will drive a nail.
As soon as the desired number of nails have been
driven, remove fi nger from the trigger.

● Keep your fi nger off the trigger except during
nailing operation, because serious injury
could result if the push lever accidentally
contacts you or others in work area.
● Keep hands and body away from the
discharge area. This Hitachi nailer may
bounce from the recoil of driving a nail and
unwanted subsequent nail may be driven,
possibly causing injury.
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
is for use where precision fastener placement is desired.
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may reduce the possibility of bodily injury to you or others
in the work area compared to the CONTACT ACTUATION
MECHANISM. This is because it is less likely to drive
an unwanted nail if you keep the trigger pulled and
accidentally bump the push lever against yourself or
others.
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may also reduce the speed of operation compared
to the CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM. The
SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM is
recommended to inexperienced users.
NOTE
● If all warnings and instructions are followed, safe
operation is possible with two systems: SINGLE
SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM, and
CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM.
● Always handle nails and package carefully. If nails
are dropped, collating bond may be broken, which
will cause mis-feeding and jamming.
● After nailing:
1) disconnect air hose from the Nailer;
2) remove all nails from the Nailer;
3) supply 5 – 10 drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool
lubricant into the air plug on the Nailer; and
4) open the petcock on the air compressor tank to
drain any moisture.

ADJUSTING THE NAILING DEPTH

● When adjusting the Adjuster, be sure to
remove your fi nger from the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the nailer.
To assure that each nail penetrates to the same depth, be
sure that:
