OPERATIONS
General Operations
If you have not read the safety instruc-
tions in this manual, do not operate
the nailer.
Before you operate your nailer, place five
to six drops of the included oil into the
quick connect fitting where the nailer con-
nects to the air supply.
To operate your nailer:
1. Connect the air supply to the quick
connect fitting.
2. Hold the nail firmly in place with one
hand as if using a regular hammer.
3. Make sure you are positioned out of
the way of a potential path of a nail in
case of deflection.
Deflection is caused when grain irreg-
ularities, knots or foreign objects inside
the wood cause the nail to change its
path, resulting in the nail puncturing
the surface of the workpiece, as shown
in Figure 3.
4. Place the tip of the palm nailer over
the end of the nail. When the ram pin
touches the nail head, it will automati-
cally begin to hammer the nail into the
workpiece. Hold the nailer in place
until the sliding depth guide is fully
depressed.
5. You can stop the nailer at any time by
simply lifting it away from the nail and
workpiece. This is useful if you do not
wish for the nail to be countersunk into
the workpiece.
5. When the nail is fully hammered into
the workpiece, the nailer will automati-
cally stop.
Note: The air palm nailer will automati-
cally countersink all nails to a depth of
around 2mm or
5
⁄64".

Operation of this nailer has the poten-
tial to propel debris into the air which
can cause eye injury. Always wear
ANSI-approved safety glasses or gog-
gles when operating equipment.
