VII. OPERATIONS
D. TEST FIRING
Whenever changing fastener size or composi-
tion of material being fastened, the gun should
be tested to ensure that the air pressure is set
correctly and the gun is working properly.
To test fire the gun, wear safety glasses
and follow the steps below:
1. Select a sample workpiece similar in
composition to the type of material you
will be fastening.
2. Firmly press the safety nose down
against the sample piece.
3. Pull trigger.
4. Inspect your results. If the nail is set too
far into the workpiece, reduce the regu-
lated air pressure. If the nail is not set or
protrudes above the work surface,
increase the air pressure. However, do
not exceed the maximum air pressure
recommended for the gun or the hose
(120 p.s.i. for the gun).
5. Disconnect the air hose from the gun
when finished.
6. Unload fasteners. See Section VII.B.
E. ROUTINE USE
To operate the nail gun under routine con-
ditions, always wear safety glasses and:
1. Line up the gun nose with the area on the
workpiece you intend to fasten.
2. Hold the gun straight and perpendicular
to the work surface.
3. Firmly press safety nose against the
workpiece so that the gun nose rests on
the workpiece.
4. Pull trigger.
DO NOT DROP GUN. Repeated dropping will
result in misalignment of the nose and jam-
ming or breakage could occur. This is a preci-
sion tool, not a hammer.
This gun can also be continuously fired by
holding down on the trigger and firmly press-
ing the safety nose against the workpiece
each time you wish to shoot a fastener.
However, due to the inherent instability
and danger involved with that practice, we
strongly recommend against it.
DO NOT FORGET TO DISCONNECT AIR
SUPPLY AND UNLOAD FASTENERS
WHEN FINISHED USING THE GUN.
