Tool Installation And Operation - Paslode Positive Placement F250S-PP Operating Manual And Schematic

TOOL INSTALLATION
Your Paslode tool comes ready for immediate use and
can be installed by following these steps:
1. SAFETY - All tool operators and their immediate
supervisors must become familiar with the operator
safety instructions before operating the tool. The instruc-
tions are on page 4 of this manual.
2. Included with each tool is a copy of the operation
manual and schematic. Keep this publication for future
reference. An ownership registration card is also
included. This card must be completed and returned to
Paslode immediately to register your ownership.
3. The plastic cap in the air inlet of the tool must be
removed before the male fitting is installed. The fitting
must be a male pneumatic type that discharges the air
from the tool when the air line is discon-nected.
4. Install a filter/regulator/lubricator unit, with a gauge as
close as practical to the tool, preferably within ten feet.
Refer to the Air Systems section of this manual for air
hose requirements and lengths. In general, no other
special installation is required.
5. If the operator is working at a bench or table, it is
usually best to run the air line underneath the bench. A
small tray under the benchtop can hold the fastener
supply and the tool when not in use.
6. If this tool does not work when it is first connected, do
not try to make repairs. Call your Paslode representative
immediately.
TOOL OPERATION
Depth of Drive Adjustment
(On tools equipped with this feature)
This feature allows you to set the depth of the
fastener without having to adjust the air com-
pressor. To use this feature, disconnect the air
hose from the tool. Using the 3/16 hex wrench
that is stored in the rear of the tools magazine,
loosen the bolt on the nose work contact
element( figure below). Adjust to the desired
position and tighten the nose bolt. If the tool is
over driving the nail, the probe should be moved
downward. If the nail is standing, the probe
should be adjusted upward.
Note:
Follow the metal connector manufacturer's
instructions when installing the nails. Always use
the nail size specified by the metal connector
manufacturer and/or the local building codes.
