TOOL OPERATION

SEQUENTIAL (SINGLE FIRE ) OPERATION
To operate this tool in SEQUENTIAL fire mode, move the selector button
on the trigger to the rear position.
1. Hold the tool securely using the handgrip. Keep finger off trigger
until tool is in position and you are ready to drive a fastener.
NOTE: Depressing trigger before depressing safety bracket will prevent
tool from actuating.
2. Position the nose of the tool on the workpiece, placing the nose at
the desired fastener driving position.
3. Press the tool down firmly against the work surface, fully depressing
the workpiece contact (safety bracket).
4. Squeeze the trigger once to drive a fastener.
5. Allow the tool to rebound off the work surface, and release the trigger
to reset the workpiece contact. Tool will not drive another fastener until
trigger is released, and cannot be bump-fired with sequential operation
mode selected.
6. Check fastener for flush drive, and turn nail depth adjustment dial to
obtain desired fastener drive.
7. If tool adjustments do not provide the desired results, make air pressure
adjustments at the compressor: Increase air pressure to drive deeper or
to drive into harder materials. Reduce air pressure to reduce drive or to drive
into softer materials. For longest tool and part life, always use the lowest air
pressure necessary to drive fasteners to desired depth.
8. Position the tool for driving the next fastener, and repeat the above
procedure. Always keep hands and other body parts away from
areas being fastened.
BUMP FIRE (CONTACT TRIP) OPERATION
To operate this tool in BUMP FIRE mode, move the selector button on the
trigger to the forward position.
1. Position the nose of the tool over the work surface, near the area
where the first fastener is to be driven.
2. Squeeze and hold the trigger in the depressed position.
3. Bump the workpiece contact (safety) against the work surface at
each point where a fastener is to be driven.
4. Using a bouncing motion, continue moving the tool into position for
each fastener drive.
5. When fastening is completed, release the trigger.
