MAINTAINING THE TOOL
When working on air tools note the warnings in this manual and use extra care when
e
valuating problem tools.
TOOL SPECIFICATIONS
All screws and nuts are metric.
FASTENER SPECIFICATIONS:
TOOL AIR FITTING:
These tools use a free-flow connector plug, 1/4 N.P.T. The inside diameter should be
.200” (5mm) or larger. The fitting must be capable of discharging tool air pressure when
disconnected from the air supply.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
70 to 100 psi (4.8 to 6.9 bar). Select the operating pressure within this range for
best fastener performance.
DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP
This tool is supplied with a sequential trip trigger installed.
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This
makes accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on trim installation, toe nailing and crating
applications. The Sequential Trip allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a second
fastener on recoil. The Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally
drive a fastener if the tool is contacted against the work – or anything else – while the operator is holding
the trigger pulled.
Do not use oxygen, combustible gases, or bottled gases as a power
source for this tool as tool may explode, possibly causing injury.
FITTINGS:
Install a male plug on the tool which is free flowing and which will release air pressure from the tool
when disconnected from the supply source.
HOSES:
Air hoses should have a minimum of 150 p.s.i. (10.6 kg/cm
2
) working pressure rating or 150 percent of
the maximum pressure that could be produced in the air system. The supply hose should contain a
fitting that will provide “quick disconnecting” from the male plug on the tool.
