Model H8235 3-Piece Framing/Brad/Palm Nailer Kit
-8-
A safety mechanism on the nose of the
framing and brad nailers protects against
accidental firing. When the trigger is
pressed, the nailer will not fire until the
safety nose mechanism is depressed.
Before you use your nailers for the first
time, check the safety nose mechanism to
ensure proper function.
To check the safety nose mechanism:
1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE
AIR SUPPLY!
2. Make sure the magazine is empty and
contains no nails.
3. Make sure the trigger and the safety
nose mechanism move up and down
without sticking.
4. Connect the nailer to the air supply.

Mechanism
5. Without pressing the trigger, depress
the safety nose mechanism against a
scrap piece of wood that is clean and
free of any knots, nails, or other foreign
objects.
— If the nailer does not fire, then the
safety nose mechanism is working
correctly.
— If the nailer does fire when you
do this, immediately disconnect the
nailer from the air supply and call
Grizzly Technical Support at (570)
546-9663 for help.
— If the nailer does fire when the
trigger is pulled, without the safety
nose mechanism being depressed,
then the nailer is not working prop-
erly.
— If you find that the safety nose
mechanism is not moving up and
down properly, check the lubrication
of its sliding components.
The safety mechanism is a mechanical
device that can fail. Never rely on this
mechanism as an excuse to point the
nailers at yourself or any bystanders.
Serious injury may occur.
DO NOT attempt to modify or bypass
the safety nose mechanism to make
the nailers fire without pushing the
safety nose down.
