• Do not modify tool without authorization from
Makita.
• Ask Makita’s Authorized service centers for period-
ical inspection of the tool.
• To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
maintenance and repairs should be performed by
Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using
Makita replacement parts.
• Use only pneumatic tool oil specified in this man-
ual.
• Never connect tool to compressed air line where
the maximum allowable pressure of tool cannot be
exceeded by 10%. Make sure that the pressure sup-
plied by the compressed air system does not
exceed the maximum allowable pressure of the fas-
tener driving tool. Set the air pressure initially to
the lower value of the recommended allowable
pressure.
• Do not attempt to keep the trigger or contact ele-
ment depressed with tape or wire. Death or serious
injury may occur.
• Always check contact element as instructed in this
manual. Staples may be driven accidentally if the
safety mechanism is not working correctly.

INSTALLATION
Selecting compressor (Fig. 1 & 2)
Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air
output to assure cost-efficient operation. The graph
shows the relation between stapling frequency, applica-
ble pressure and compressor air output.
Thus, for example, if stapling takes place at a rate of
approximately 60 times per minute at a compression of
0.68 MPa (6.8 bar), a compressor with an air output over
90 L/minute is required.
Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to
the rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure
exceeds the tool’s rated pressure. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury to tool operator or persons in the
vicinity.
Selecting air hose (Fig. 3)
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, efficient stapling operation. With an
air pressure of 0.49 MPa (4.9 bar), an air hose with an
internal diameter of over 8.5 mm (5/16") and a length of
less than 20 m (66 ft.) is recommended when the interval
between each stapling is 0.5 seconds. Air supply hoses
shall have a minimum working pressure rating of 1.0 MPa
(10 bar) or 150 percent of the maximum pressure pro-
duced in the system whichever is higher.
CAUTION:
• Low air output of the compressor, or a long or smaller
diameter air hose in relation to the stapling frequency
may cause a decrease in the driving capability of the
tool.
Lubrication (Fig. 4)
To insure maximum performance, install an air set (oiler,
regulator, air filter) as close as possible to the tool. Adjust
the oiler so that one drop of oil will be provided for every
50 staples.
When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic
tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air fit-
ting. This should be done before and after use. For
proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the hose before adjusting or check-
ing function on the tool.
Adjusting depth of stapling
To adjust the depth of stapling, loosen the bolt by using
the hex wrench provided with the tool and then slide the
depth adjusting plate up or down. (Fig. 5)
If staples cannot be driven deep enough, slide the adjust-
ing plate in the direction of arrow as shown in the figure.
(Fig. 6)
If the staples are driven too deep, slide the adjusting
plate in the direction of arrow as shown in the figure.
(Fig. 7)
The depth can be adjusted 5 mm to the maximum.
Tighten the bolt securely at the right position after adjust-
ing.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the hose before carrying out any
work on the tool.
Hook
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the hose from the tool.
• Never hook the tool at high location or on potentially
unstable surface.
The hook is convenient for hanging the tool temporarily.
Secure the hook on the tool with the provided screw
using either of two holes in the hook as shown in the fig-
ure. (Fig. 8)
Loading stapler
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the hose before loading the tool.
• Do not use deformed staples or staple strip. Failure to
do so causes poor staple feeding.
• Always use staples specified in this instruction manual.
Failure to do so causes poor staple feeding.
• Always return the pusher slowly and gently while hold-
ing it with a hand.
Select staples suitable for your work. Make sure that the
hose is disconnected from the tool.
1.
Pull the pusher to the rear of magazine and hook the
groove in the pusher on the lock pin. (Fig. 9)
2.
Insert strip of staples into the magazine. Two strips
of staples can be loaded. (Fig. 10)
