AIR CONSUMPTION:
Model BTFP71875 requires 0.41 cubic feet per min (c.f.m.) of free air to operate at the rate of 100 fasteners per minute, at 100 PSI (6.9 bars). Take the
actual rate at which the tool will be run to determine the amount of air required. For instance, if your fastener usage averages 50 fasteners per minute, you
need 50% of the tool's c.f.m. of free air which is required for running at 100 fasteners per minute.
AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS
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.
FITTING TORQUE SPECIFICATION:
Torque Specification for air fitting: 52-59 IN-LBS (60-68 CM-KGF).
HOSES:
Air hoses should have a minimum of 150 PSI (10.3 bars) working pressure rating or 150% 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.
SUPPLY SOURCE:
Use only clean regulated compressed air as a power source for this tool. NEVER USE OXYGEN, COMBUSTIBLE GASES, OR BOTTLED GASES, AS A POWER
SOURCE FOR THIS TOOL AS TOOL MAY EXPLODE.
REGULATOR:
A pressure regulator with an operating pressure of 0 - 125 PSI (0 - 8.6 bars) is required to control the operating pressure for safe operation of this tool. Do
not connect this tool to air pressure which can potentially exceed 200 PSI (13.8 bars) as tool may fracture or burst, possibly causing injury.
OPERATING PRESSURE:
Do not exceed recommended maximum operating pressure as tool wear will be greatly increased. The air supply must be capable of maintaining the
operating pressure at the tool. Pressure drops in the air supply can reduce the tool’s driving power. Refer to “TOOL SPECIFICATIONS” for setting the correct
operating pressure for the tool.
LOADING THE BTFP71875
EYE PROTECTION which conforms to ANSI specifications and provides protection against flying particles both from the
FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and others in the work area when connecting to air supply,
loading, operating or servicing this tool. Eye protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which
could cause severe eye injury.
The employer and/or user must ensure that proper eye protection is worn. Eye protection equipment must conform to the
requirements of the American National Standards Institute, ANSI Z87.1/CAN/CSA Z94.3 and provide both frontal and side
protection. NOTE: Non-side shielded spectacles and face shields alone do not provide adequate protection.
TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL INJURIES:
• Never place a hand or any other part of the body in nail discharge area of tool while the air supply is connected.
• Never point the tool at anyone else.
• Never engage in horseplay.
• Never pull or grasp the secondary trigger unless nose is directed at the work.
• Always handle the tool with care.
• Do not pull either of the two triggers while loading the tool.
LOADING:
1. Remove air line from tool, Fig.1.
2. Hold stapler upside down as shown and release loading hatch, Fig.2
3. Place one stick of staples in bottom channel so legs are pointing up. Push slide closed, making sure latch engages. Fig. 3.
4. For brads, place only on left side (direction as shown on the magazine liner). Be sure nail heads are pointing down. Push slide closed,
make sure latch engages.
