OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOREWORD
Porter-Cable Model NS100A is a heavy duty pneumatic stapler. It is designed
to install narrow crown (
1
/4" wide), 18 ga. wire staples of various lengths (from
1
/2" to 1" long), see ACCESSORIES Listing in back of this manual.
CAUTION: Use approved Porter-Cable staples only (see ACCES-
SORIES Listing in back of this manual).
POWER SOURCE
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air at regulated
pressures between 70 and 120 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). The preferred
system would include a filter, a pressure regulator, and an automatic oiler
located as close to the tool as possible (within 15 feet is ideal).
All compressed air contains moisture and other contaminates that are
detrimental to internal components of the tool. An air line filter will remove most
of these contaminates and significantly prolong the life of the tool. If an in-line
oiler is not available: place five or six drops of Porter-Cable Air Tool Oil (see
ACCESSORIES), into the tool’s air inlet at the beginning of each workday.
The tool is equipped with a male “quick connector”. The tool must always be
connected to the air supply with a coupling such that all pressure is removed
from the tool when the coupling is disconnected.
CAUTION: All air line components (hoses, connectors, filters,
regulators, etc.) must have a minimum working pressure rating of 150
PSI (10.3 BAR) or 150% of maximum system potential, whichever is
higher.
Do not connect this tool to a system with maximum potential pressure
greater than 200 PSI (13.7 BAR).
Only connect tool to air supply with a coupling that will release all
pressure from the tool when disconnected.
Disconnect tool from air supply before performing maintenance,
clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another
location, or handing the tool to another person.
