DIAL-A-DEPTH™ FASTENER CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
The DIAL-A-DEPTH™ Fastener control adjustment
feature provides close control of the fastener drive
depth: from flush with the work surface to shallow or
deep countersink.
First set the air pressure for consistent drive in the
specific work as described on page 4, then use the
DIAL-A-DEPTH™ fastener control knob to give the
desired depth of drive.

Tar and dirt may build up on the nose and trip lever. This can prevent correct operation.
Remove any buildup with kerosene, #2 fuel oil or diesel fuel.
Do not dunk the nailer into these solvents beyond the height of the nail
heads, to avoid getting the solvent into the drive cylinder.
Dry off the nailer before use. Any oil film left after cleanup will accelerate
the tar buildup, and the nailer will require more frequent re-cleaning.
NOTE:
Solvents sprayed on the nose to clean and free up the trip
may have the opposite effect! The solvent may soften the tar on
the shingles and cause tar buildup to be accelerated. Dry operation
is better, as noted above.
Do not use gasoline or similar highly flammable liquids to clean the nailer.
Vapor could be ignited by a spark, causing an explosion.
