Adjusting The Stapling Depth - Hitachi N 5008AC2 Instruction And Safety Manual

English
● Keep your fi nger off the trigger except during
fastening 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. The Stapler with contact trip
mechanism may bounce from the recoil of
driving a fastener and unwanted subsequent
fastener may be driven, possibly causing
injury.
● Some types of loaded staples can spark
out of the muzzle during a staple driving
operation. Exercise caution!
THE OPTIONAL SEQUENTIAL TRIP MECHANISM
(SINGLE SHOT PARTS) is for use where precision
fastener placement is desired and must be operated in
accordance with the following "Method of Operation".
You must fi rst depress the push lever (upward position)
where you want to drive a staple and then pull the trigger.
After the each staple is driven, completely release the
trigger and lift the tool off the work surface. An OPTIONAL
SEQUENTIAL TRIP MECHANISM may reduce the
possibility of bodily injury to you or others in the work
area. This is because it is less likely to drive an unwanted
staple if you keep the trigger pulled and accidentally bump
the push lever against yourself or others. An OPTIONAL
SEQUENTIAL TRIP MECHANISM may also reduce the
speed of operation compared to the standard contact trip
mechanism.
NOTE:
● Both STANDARD CONTACT TRIP MECHANISM and
OPTIONAL SEQUENTIAL TRIP MECHANISM are
safe if used as described above and according to all
warnings and instructions.
● Always handle staples and package carefully. If
staples are dropped, collating bond may be broken.
● After stapling:
1) disconnect air hose from the Stapler;
2) remove all staples from the Stapler;
3) supply 5 – 10 drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool
lubricant into the air plug on the Stapler; and
4) open the petcock on the air compressor tank to
drain any moisture.

WARNING

ADJUSTING THE STAPLING DEPTH

● When adjusting the Adjuster, be sure to
remove your fi nger from the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the stapler.
To assure that each staple penetrates to the same depth,
be sure that:
1) the air pressure to the Stapler remains constant
(regulator is installed and working properly), and
2) the Stapler is always held fi rmly against the
workpiece.
If staples are driven too deep or shallow into the
workpiece, adjust the stapling in the following order.
1 DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM STAPLER.
Push lever
piece
2 To adjust the driven-in depth of a staple, loosen the
screw that secures a push lever piece.
If the staple is driven in deeply, adjust the push lever
piece to "down", and if it's driven in shallowly, adjust
the push lever piece to "up".
