with accessories other than those stipulated in these operating instructions, connected to compressed air sources not listed in these operating instructions. PREBENA WILFRIED BORNEMANN GMBH & CO. KG accepts no liability for any damage resulting from any such improper or unspecified use.
Safety Avoid the risk of fatal injuries During the triggering sequence and whenever the tacker is connected to the air supply, ensure that body parts are not near the opening. Only trigger the tacker when the tool lug is pressed onto the workpiece.
Safety Avoid damage to the tacker Never open the tacker. Always leave repairs to qualified specialists. Do not use the tacker if it has been dropped or is damaged. Have it inspected by qualified specialists before putting it into use again.
All tackers work with compressed air that corresponds at least to quality class 4 according to DIN ISO 8573-1. The compressed air source is PREBENA compressors or the PREBENA PKT compressed air cartridge technology.
Description Information on the rating plate The rating plate is glued to the top side of the magazine. It contains the following information: Explanation Company name and full address of the manufacturer Designation of machine - DN = Druckluftbetriebenes Eintreibgerät (Pneumatically-driven tacker) Model designation Year of manufacture...
Preparing the tacker Preparing the tacker Unpacking the tacker Remove the tacker from the packaging. Remove all packaging materials, such as plastic films, filler material and the cardboard box. WARNING Do not allow children to play with plastic packaging films.
If no oiler is installed, the length of the air line to the tacker must not exceed 10 m. Otherwise three to five drops of PREBENA special nailer oil must be filled directly into the air inlet of the tacker every day prior to use.

Preparing the tacker CAUTION Operation on compressed air systems that do not meet the above-mentioned preconditions can lead to damage to the tacker. Only operate the tacker on suitable compressed air systems. Only use the tacker if it is in perfect working order. ...
Preparing the tacker Push the quick coupler (1) of the air hose onto the connection (2) until it engages audibly. Check the operating pressure at the pressure display of the compressor. The maximum permissible operating pressure of the tackers is 7.0 bar.
Preparing the tacker Inserting fastener To insert the fastener (14) in the magazine, turn the tacker upside down and place the staple bars with the back downwards in the magazine. Closing magazine To close the magazine (8), press the lower pusher (7) forwards again.
Preparing the tacker Ensure that the lower pusher (7) engages at the lock (4). Push the lock (4) forwards if necessary. The magazine is closed. Checking function To check correct operation of the tacker, proceed as follows: CAUTION ...
Operating the tacker Operating the tacker Regulating the driving depth via operating pressure The driving depth of the fastener in the material can be set by regulating the operating pressure. At a high operating pressure, the fasteners are driven in deeper and not so deep at a lower operating pressure.
Operating the tacker Driving in fasteners WARNING Risk of injury due to electric shock. Before triggering the tacker, always ensure that a power supply line cannot be struck. WARNING During operation, injuries to the eyes and other body parts are possible due to flying splinters. ...
Operating the tacker The driving depth of the fasteners depends on the hardness and thickness of the wooden workpiece and the set operating pressure. Ensure that there are no persons behind the workpiece. Then check the operation of the tacker at a low operating pressure by triggering it once.
After operation After operation After use or prior to prolonged shutdowns, perform the steps described below. Disconnect the compressed air supply Switch off the compressor. Pull the quick coupler of the air hose away from the handle. The quick coupler is now released. ...
Transporting and storing the tacker Transporting and storing the tacker Packing Pack the tacker prior to storage or before the following types of transport: Distances of more than 10 m Transport over unsafe ground Transport that involves unaccustomed posture. Carry out the following preparatory steps: ...
Always set down the box in a horizontal position with the lid facing upwards. Storage Oil all metal parts of the tacker thinly with PREBENA special nailer oil. Pack the tacker in the cardboard box. Store the tacker at room temperature in a dry place protected...
Slight contamination Wipe off the tacker housing with a dry cloth. Oil all metal parts of the tacker thinly with PREBENA special nailer oil. Serious contamination Wipe off the tacker housing with a cloth dampened slightly with a mild soap solution.
If no oiler is installed and the length of the air line to the tacker is over 10 m, sufficient lubrication is not guaranteed. In this case, pour two to five drops of PREBENA special nailer oil directly into the port for the compressed air supply once weekly before starting work.
If faults occur on the tacker that you are unable to correct based on the measures in the malfunction overview, you have to notify PREBENA Service. Do not perform repair work on the tacker. Ensure that all malfunctions to the tacker are eliminated by...
