MAINTENANCE
A WARNING:
Any
time
inspection,
maintenance,
and
cleaning are done:
@ Disconnect the tool from the air source.
Empty the magazine completely.
ANTI-DUST CAP
Each tool is packed with an anti-dust cap on the air
connector, check it after unpacking.
Keep the anti-dust cap cover the air connector
when the tool is not in use.
LUBRIFICATION
Lubrication is required for best performance after
long periods use. Oil for pneumatic fastening tools is
added
through
the air line connection
and
will
lubricate internal parts. Do not use detergent oil or
additives as these lubricants will cause accelerated
wear to the seals and bumpers in the tool, resulting
in
poor
tool
performance
and
frequent
tool
maintenance.
1. Disconnect the air supply from the tool to add
lubricant.
2. Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Place 2-
3 drops of pneumatic fastening tool oil into air
inlet. Do not use detergent oils, oil additives, or
air-tool
oils
as
these
lubricants
will
cause
accelerated wear to the seals and bumpers in
the tool, resulting in poor tool performance and
frequent tool maintenance.
3. After adding
oil, connect
the tool to the air
source, run tool briefly. Wipe off any excess oil
from the cap exhaust.
CAUTION:
The work surface can become damaged
by
excessive
lubrication.
Proper
lubrication is the owner's responsibility.
Failure to lubricate the tool properly will
dramatically shorten the life of the tool
and void your warranty.
CAUTION:
Lubricate
tool
only
with
specified
lubricants.

CLEANING
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most
plastics
are
susceptible
to damage
from
various types of commercial solvents and maybe
damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove
dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
A WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids,
gasoline,
petroleum-based
products,
penetration
oils, ect., come
in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage,
weaken
or destroy
plastic which
may
result in serious personal injury.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
For cold weather operation, near and below freezing,
the moisture in the air line may freeze and prevent
tool operation. We recommend the use of air tool
lubricant or permanent antifreeze (ethylene glycol)
as a cold weather lubricant.
CAUTION:
Do
not store tools
in a cold weather
environment
to
prevent
frost
or
ice
formation on the tool's operating valves
and mechanisms
that could cause tool
failure.
RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
1. The air compressor must be able to maintain a
minimum of 7Opsi when the tool is being used.
An inadequate air supply can cause a loss of
power and inconsistent driving.
2. An oiler can be used to provide oil circulation
through the tool. A filter can be used to remove
liquid and solid impurities which can rust or gum
up internal parts of the tool.
3. Always use air supply hoses with a minimum
working pressure rating equal to or greater than
the pressure from the power source if a regulator
fails, or 150psi, whichever is greater. Use 3/8" air
hose for runs up to 50'. Use 1/2" air hoses for 50'
run or longer. For better performance, install a
3/8" quick plug(1/4" NPT thread) with an inside
diameter of 0.315" (8mm) on the tool and 3/8"
quick coupler on the air hose.
4.Use a pressure
regulator on the compressor,
with an operating
pressure
of 0-125psi.
A
pressure
regulator is required
to control
the
operating pressure of the tool between 70psi and
110psi.
CAUTION:
The
air compressor
must
be
able
to
maintain a minimum
of 70psi when the
tool is being used. An inadequate
air
supply can cause
a loss of power
and
inconsistent driving.
A WARNING:
Do not connect with an air compressor
which can potentially exceed 200psi. As
tool may burst, possibly causing injury.
