oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air fitting. 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.
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the air hose before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Adjusting depth of nailing
005625
1
To adjust the depth of nailing, press the knob toward the
nose tip and turn the adjuster so that the arrow above the
adjuster will point to the number indicated on the adjuster.
The depth of nailing is the deepest when the arrow points to
the number 1. It will become shallower as the arrow points to
higher number. The depth can be changed in approx. 0.8
3
mm (1/32") increments per graduation. If nails cannot be
driven deep enough even when the arrow points to the num-
ber 1, increase the air pressure. If nails are driven too deep
even when the arrow points to the number 9, decrease the
air pressure. Generally speaking, the tool service life will be
longer when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the
adjuster set to a lower number.
