DESCRIPTION
The Craftsman Clipped Head Angle Framing Nailer drives nails
from 113" to 131" diameter and from 2" to 3',_" long
Magazine is angled at 28 ° for nailing in tight spots such as
when toenailing High strength magnesium body and aluminum
components are lightweight and durable. Safety feature dis-
ables tco_ unless contact trip is pressed against workpmece
Sequential trigger switch allows selection of ral_d-fire or single-
fire mode Contact tnp can be adjusted for setting nail depth.
Pusher mechanism supports shorter fasteners to prevent jam-
ming Plastic protector on the end of contact trip prevents mar-
ring of workplace Large capacity, end loading magazine makes
it easy to load up to 80 stick nails at a time. Tool ddvea straight,
screw, and ring shank nails, Exhaust deflector can be rotated
360 _, The Angle Framing Nailer is excellent for truss maldng,
framing, sheathing, sub-ficodng and decking.

AIR SUPPLY LINE
Refer to Figure 1.
DANGER: Do not use oxygen, carbon dioxide, high-pressure
compressed gas or bottled gases as the power source for this
tool. The tool will explode and serious personal injury Could
result.
• ]-he air tool operates on compressed air at pressures from
70 to 110 PSI.
• Never connect the tool to air pressure which could poten.
tiaPly exceed 200 PSI. Use only clean, dry, regulated air
within rated range as marked on tool.
Air Delivery Required: 2.21 SCFM @ 90 PSI
(30 shots per minute).
WARNING: Keep hands and body away from discharge area
of tool when connecting air supply. Always disconnect tool
from air supply when servicing or adjusting tool and when tool
is not in use,
• Air operated tools require clean, dry, lubricated com-
pressed air to ensure top performance, low maintenance
and tong nfe.
Dirt and abrasive materials present in all air lines wil! darn
age tool O-rings, valves and cylinders
Moisture will reduce tool performance and life if not
removed from compressed air.
• A filter-regulator-lubricat0r system is required and should be
located as close to teal as possible A distance of less than
15 feet is recommended. Lubricator is not required for
ailless tools
Keep air filter clean A dirty filter wil! reduce the air pressure
to the tool causing a reduction Jn power and efficiency
The air supply system must be able to provide air pressure
o1 70 to 110 pounds per square inch at toot
• All hoses and ptpes in the air supply system must be cle_n
and free of moisture and foreign particles Hoses must be
rated for a maximum working pressure of 150 PSf or 150%
of maximum system pressure, whichever is greater.
• Do not mount swivel connector in air supply lirle
• The air pressure should be properly regulated,
• Different workplace materials and different fastener lengths
will require different operating pressure
• Be sure all connections in air supply system are sealed to
prevent air loss.
• Never connect a female quick-disconnect coupling to the
tool side of air line connection. A male, free-flow coupling
should be connected to the tool side of air fine connection
(.see Figure 1),
WARNING: The female coupJing provides a seat preventing
loss of compressed air from compressor tank when discon-
nected from male oaupling If connected to tool side of air
supply, the female coupling could seal a compressed air
charge in the tool which could discharge if the tool trigger is
actuated
LOADING
Refer to Figures 2, 3 & 4, page 4.
WARNING: Disconnect tool from air supply, Do not load loot
until you are ready to use it. Do not pull tdgger or depress
contact trip while loading tool, Always load with nose of tool
pothtthg away from you and others, Always wear safety gog-
gles that comply with United States ANSI Z87 1.
NOTE: For best results, use Sears fasteners only.
