Clearing Jams
1. Disconnect tool from air hose. Always fire the trigger repeatedly to make sure all of the
air is expended from the Nailer.
2. If a nail is jammed in the discharge area, simply remove it with pliers.
3. If a nail is jammed in the magazine, pull the Tab (70)
all the way back to the engaged position. Using a
screwdriver, attempt to release the jammed nail by
probing either or both of the two openings in the
magazine (see photo at right) to release the nail.
Pull out the jammed nail and the remainder of the
nail strip that is still in the magazine.
4. Dispose of the remaining nail strip; it may be bent
or damaged in some other way. Reload the maga-
zine with a new nail strip.
Be careful. When you pull back on the Latch (83) to
release the Tab (70), it will spring forward with
force. Keep your fingers clear when you release the Latch (83) and slide the Tab (70)
forward.
If you are unable to clear the nail jam using the method prescribed above, the tool
should be taken to a qualified service technician for proper servicing.

Anytime
any
maintenance or repairs are done (including clearing jams), FIRST:
1. Disconnect the Nailer from the air hose.
2. Empty the Magazine (76) completely.
3. Attempt to fire the Nailer into a piece of scrap wood to ensure that it is disconnected and
is incapable of firing any nails.
4. Always leave the Magazine (76) open during maintenance. The Magazine is spring-
loaded and may cause parts or a nail to fly out of the Nailer.
