After making the calculations as shown
above, you should fi nd a compressor
providing 4.9 CFM of air that is
required.
Lubrication
It is important that the Nailer be properly
lubricated.
Without proper lubrication, the Nailer will not
work properly and parts will wear prematurely.
Use Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant. ○
Do not use detergent oil or additives. These
lubricants will harm the O-rings and other
rubber parts. This will cause the Nailer to
malfunction.
Filter-regulator-lubricator units should ○
always be used.
Keep the lubricator fi lled with Hitachi
pneumatic tool lubricant.
If a lubricator is not available, supply 5 – 10 ○
drops of Hitachi pneumatic tool lubricant
into the air plug on the Nailer twice a day.
Cold weather care
Do not store the Nailer in a cold weather ○
environment. Keep the Nailer in a warm
area until beginning the work.
If the Nailer is already cold, bring it in a ○
warm area and allow the Nailer to warm up
before use.
1 Reduce the air pressure to 64 psi (4.4
bar 4.5 kgf/cm
2
).
2 Remove all nails from the Nailer.
3 Connect the air hose and free-fi re
(blank-fi re) the Nailer.
The lowered air pressure will be enough
to free-fi re the Nailer.
Slow speed operation tends to warm up
the moving part.
CAUTION
Do not free-fi re the Nailer at high ●
pressure.
