OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
USING THE TOOL WITH SELECTABLE TRIGGERING OPTIONS
Complete all steps of PREPARING THE TOOL before using the tool.
This tool is shipped from the factory with a selectable trigger set in the
“SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION” firing mode as described in number 1
below. The selectable trigger can be set for the “CONTACT ACTUATION”
firing mode as described in number 2 below;
1. To use the tool in the SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MODE
depress trigger lever pivot pin (A) Fig. 27, rotate arrow to position (B), and
release. Note: Trigger lever pivot pin is spring loaded and held in position by
locking tab (D) Fig. 27 to prevent movement during operation. To fire, grip
tool firmly to maintain control, position nose of tool onto work surface, push
tool firmly against work surface to depress safety, and then squeeze
trigger to fire a fastener, as shown at (S) Fig. 27A. This “single
sequential actuation” method provides the most accurate fastener
placement.

2. To use the tool in the CONTACT ACTUATION MODE depress trigger
lever pivot pin (A) Fig. 27, rotate arrow to position (C), and release. Note:
Trigger lever pivot pin is spring loaded and held in position by locking tab (D)
Fig. 27 to prevent movement during operation. To fire, grip tool firmly to
maintain control, squeeze and hold trigger, push tool firmly against work
surface to depress contact safety and fire a fastener, as shown at (S)
Fig. 27A. Allow tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener is driven. If
safety element is allowed to recontact work surface before trigger is released
an unwanted fastener will be fired. The tool will fire a fastener each time the
contact safety is depressed. This method is known as “contact actuation”
and allows very fast repetitive fastener placement.
