Check for proper functioning by applying the safety yoke
of the fastener driving tool to a piece of wood or wooden
material and actuating the trigger once or twice.
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry compressed
air at regulated pressures between 4.8 - 8.3 bar (70 - 120
psi). The correct air pressure is the lowest pressure that
will do the job.
NOtE: Air pressure that is higher than 8.3 bar (120 psi)
may damage the tool.
The tool and air hose must have a hose coupling that
allows all pressure to be removed from the tool when the
coupling is disconnected.
Always use a coupling that discharges all the
compressed air in the tool at the time the fitting or
hose coupling is disconnected. Using a coupling that
does not discharge the compressed air could cause
unintended operation and serious personal injury.
Do not climb rigging or scaffolding while carrying a tool
that is connected to an air hose. Doing so could result
in serious personal injury.
Connect the tool to the air supply with a 1/4 in. female
quick connector. For maximum tool performance, a 3/8 in.
supply line and fittings are required.

See figure 5 - 6.
Only those fasteners specified under Specifications
may be used. When filling the magazine, hold the
tool so that the safety yoke is not pointing towards the
operator or any other person or animals.
The tool's driving mechanism may cycle when the tool
is first connected to the air supply. Always connect the
tool to a pressurized air supply before loading fasteners
to prevent injury from unintended cycling. Always make
sure the tool's magazine is empty at the beginning of
each work session, before connecting to an air supply.
1. Connect the tool to the air supply.
2. Release the magazine lock and slide open the
magazine.

3. With the safety yoke of the tool pointed away from you,
feed a strip of fasteners into the magazine. Be sure the
fasteners are pointed downward.
Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others
when loading fasteners. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious personal injury.
4. Close the magazine.
Use only the fasteners recommended for use with this
tool. The use of any other fasteners can result in tool
malfunction, leading to serious injuries.
Never load fasteners with the safety yoke or trigger
activated. Doing so could result in possible serious
personal injury.
Do not use fasteners with shank diameter smaller
than that stated in Specifications. Doing so may cause
fasteners to exit the tool prematurely through the guide
track. Do not use hardened fasteners with pneumatic
tools. This could lead to excessive wear of the guide
body and allow fasteners to exit the back of the guide
body, leading to serious personal injury.

See figure 7.
Check the safety yoke before use. If it is deformed or
cannot telescope, do not use the tool until it is replaced.
Operate with a deformed safety yoke could result in
serious personal injury.
Never wedge or hold back the safety yoke mechanism
during operation of the tool. Doing so could result in
possible serious injury.
Avoid triggering the fastener driving tool if the magazine
is empty.
Any defective or improperly functioning fastener driving tool
must immediately be disconnected from the compressed
air supply and passed to a specialist for inspection.
