Cold Weather Operation
When using the tool in cold conditions the tool will cycle
slower than usual while driving the first nails. The cycle rate
will increase as the tool warms up. Keep tool warm to avoid
r
educed cycle rate.
Do not use a frozen tool. Allow tool to thaw
before using. Moisture frozen in the tool may
impede internal components resulting in the risk of injury
a
nd/or tool damage.
Nail Unloading
Always disconnect tool from air supply
before removing nails from magazine.
This avoids the risk of unintentional operation.
Do not disconnect air hose from the tool
with finger on trigger or work contact
element depressed. The tool can fire when reconnected to
air supply.

2.Pull back follower, pressing bypass lever of the follower to
allow follower to bypass nails and slowly allow follower to
return to nose of the tool, see figure 12.
3.Tilt the tool with the magazine vertical and the nose facing
up, this will allow the nails to slide to the back of the
magazine.
4.Once the nails have slid back to the hold back spring,
press the tab on the hold back spring to push the spring
back and allow the nails to come out of the magazine, see
figure 13.
Do not allow the nail follower to freely
recoil. Guide the follower by hand until it
reaches its full forward position. Free recoil of the
follower could result in damage to the follower and/or
magazine or your fingers could become pinched.
Depth of Drive Adjustment
The depth with which nails are driven into the work piece
can be adjusted using the depth adjustment on the nose
piece of the tool.
Disconnect the tool from the air source
