Clearing Jams - Central Pneumatic 98751 Set Up And Operating Instructions Manual

3. To fire, place the Safety Nosepiece
of the Nailer on the workpiece. The
Nailer should not fire if the Safety
Nosepiece is not depressed. Once
depressed, quickly squeeze the
Trigger once. Do not fire repeat-
edly; nails could bounce off of one
another causing injury. We recom-
mend practicing with a piece of scrap
material.
4. The Rubber Cover (43) provides a
non-marring surface. If desired, the
Rubber Cover may be removed to ex-

Doing so provides a nonslip surface
and can improve accuracy.
5. When finished, disconnect the Nailer
from the air source.
