Adjusting The Nailing Depth - Hitachi NV 50A1 Instruction And Safety Manual

● Always handle nails and package carefully.
If dropped, the collated nails may break or come
loose. In such cases, do not use the nails because,
if used in that condition, nail feed may become faulty
and result in missed nails or jamming of the nails.
● After nailing:
1) disconnect air hose from the Nailer;
2) remove all nails from the Nailer;
3) supply 5 – 10 drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool
lubricant into the air plug on the Nailer; and
4) open the petcock on the air compressor tank to
drain any moisture.

ADJUSTING THE NAILING DEPTH

To assure that each nail penetrates to the same depth, be
sure that:
1) the air pressure to the Nailer remains constant
(regulator is installed and working properly), and
2) the Nailer is always held fi rmly against the workpiece.
