INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

Anytime any maintenance or repairs are done, FIRST:
1. Disconnect the Nailer from its air supply.
2. Empty the Magazine Assembly (70) completely.
3. Attempt to fire the Nailer into a piece of scrap wood to ensure that it is
disconnected and is incapable of firing any Brads.
1. Inspect the air supply Screen that is located in the End Cap (81) before each
use, and clean or replace as necessary. Dirt and water in the air supply Screen

system for better performance and longer tool life. The filter must have adequate
flow capacity for the specific application.
2. Clean the external parts of the Nailer with a clean cloth and mild detergent or
non-flammable solvent. Then, dry.
