LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

• Your nailer needs to be lubicated before and after the first time you use it.
• Disconnect the air supply from the nailer before lubricating.
• Turn the nailer so that the inlet is facing up and put one drop of high speed spindle oil or air tool oil
without detergent into the air inlet. Never use detergent oil or additives. Operate the nailer briefly after
adding oil. Wipe off excessive oil at the exhaust.
• Excessive oil will damage O-rings of the nailer. If a in-line oiler is used, manual lubrication through the
air inlet is not required on a daily basis.
• Cold Weather Operation- Do not store in a cold weather to prevent frost or ice formation on the tools
operating valves and mechanisms that could cause tool failure.
THE FOLLOWING ILLUSTRATION SHOWS THE CORRECT MODE OF CONNECTION TO THE AIR
SUPPLY SYSTEM WHICH WILL INCREASE THE EFFICIENCY AND USEFUL LIFE OF THE NAILER.
Quick connector
• Many air tool users find it convenient to use an oiler to help provide oil circulation through the tool and
it increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. Check oil level in the oiler daily.
• Many air tool users find it convenient to use a filter to remove liquid and impurities which can rust or
wear internal parts of the tool. A filter also increases the efficiency and useful life of the tool. The
filter must be checked on a daily basis and, if necessary, drained.
• For better performance, install a 3/8" quick connector (1/4" NPT threads) with an inside diameter of
.315" on your tool and a 3/8" quick coupler on the air hose.
