WARNING:
Always wear eye protection. Eye protection does
not fit all operators in the same way. Make sure the
eye protection chosen has side shields or provides
protection from flying debris both from the front
and sides.
PREPARING THE TOOL FOR USE
See Figure 2.
Under normal use conditions, the tool should be lubricated
before connecting the tool to an air supply. Add air tool lu-
bricant into the air fitting on the tool once daily with minimal
use, or twice a day with heavy use. Only a few drops of oil
at a time is necessary. Too much oil will only collect inside
the tool and will be noticeable in the exhaust cycle.
Before connecting the tool, check the air compressor gauge
to be sure it is functioning within the proper range of 70-
120 psi.
NO-MAR PAD
See Figure 3.
The no-mar pad attached to the nose of the tool helps
prevent marring and denting when working with softer
woods.
WARNING:
Disconnect the tool from the air supply before
removing or replacing the no-mar pad. Failure to
do so could result in serious personal injury.
The pad for the framing nailer can be removed by pulling it
open and away from the side of the toe-nailing claw. To re-
place the pad, fit it into place over the points of the claw.
On-board storage for the pad is located on the magazine
of the tool. .
ADJUSTING THE EXHAUST
See Figure 4.
The adjustable exhaust on the end cap of the tool allows
the operator to direct the exhaust according to operator
preference.
To adjust, turn the exhaust cap in the desired direction.
