  • Page 13 CONTACT TRIP MODEL with ANTI-DOUBLE FIRE MECHANISM The anti-double fire mechanism (US patent 5597106, UK patent 2286790) is installed on this tool. The common operating procedure on “Contact Trip” tools is for the operator to contact the work to actuate the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the work is contacted.
  • Page 14 SEQUENTIAL TRIP The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This makes accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on framing, toe nailing and crating applications. The Sequential Trip allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil, as described under “Contact Trip”.
