MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always disconnect the air hose from the tool before
attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
Cleaning and removal of tat and dirt
Adhesion of tar and dirt to areas around the contact
element will prevent smooth movement of the contact
element (safety mechanism), causing accidental
discharge. Periodically clean the areas around the
contact element.
Use a solvent such as kerosene, #2 fuel oil or diesel fuel.
Immerse only the contact element and the areas around
the ejection port in solvent and remove tar and dirt with
brush. Always wear waterproof gloves to protect your
hands. Never immerse the housing, magazine, etc. in
solvent. Malfunction of the tool may result. Always
dispose of the solvent used in a safe and prudent
manner and in compliance with all local and national
code requirement.
