H2912/H2913 2-IN-1 NAILER/STAPLER-7-
To operate your nailer/stapler:
1. Connect the air supply to the quick
connect fitting.
2. Test the loaded nailer/stapler for prop-
er penetration. Hold the nailer/stapler
perpendicular to the surface of a
piece of clean scrap wood that is thick
enough for the length of staples/nails
you have loaded. Depress the safety
yoke mechanism on your workpiece.
3. Before pressing the trigger, make
sure your free hand is positioned out
of the way of a potential path of a sta-
ple/nail in case of deflection.
(Deflection is caused when the sta-
ple/nail changes its path, resulting in
the staple/nail puncturing the surface
of the workpiece as shown in Figure
4.)
Besides damaging your workpiece,
deflection can cause injury if your free
hand is securing the workpiece in the
location that the staple/nail deflects.
4. Press the trigger. If the staple/nail
drove into the wood far enough, con-
tinue with your intended operations. If
the staple/nail either went too far or
not far enough, then adjust the air
pressure. More air pressure will make
the staple/nail go deeper and less air
pressure will decrease the staple/nail
penetration.

Always disconnect air from the nail-
er/stapler whenever clearing a jam!
Clearing Jammed
Staples/Nails
The most frequent situation with any type
of nailer/stapler is a jammed nail or staple.
A jam must be cleared before using the
nailer/stapler again. The two places where
a jam can occur is the magazine and the
discharge area.
To clear a jam from the discharge area:
1. Disconnect the nailer/stapler from
the air supply!
2. Remove all of the staples/nails from
the magazine.
3. The jammed staple/nail should now
be visible; remove it from the dis-
charge area with needle nose pliers.
4. Replace the staples/nails. Push the
magazine closed and snap the quick
release latch back into operating posi-
tion.
To clear a jam from the magazine:
1. Disconnect the nailer/stapler from
the air supply!
2. Open the magazine cover and pull the
magazine all the way back.
3. Locate and remove the jammed sta-
ple/nail with a pair of needle nose pli-
ers. Close the magazine cover so it
latches.
