1. Read warning label(s) on the tool.
2. Visually inspect the tool for worn or damaged parts.
3. Wear appropriate eye and ear protection.
4. Install a male pneumatic fitting into the End Cap of the tool, ensuring
that the fitting allows the tool to exhaust any air in the tool when the hose is
disconnected.
5. Add 2 drops of non-detergent, 20-weight oil into the male fitting daily
(bottle included in carrying case).
6. Connect the air hose to the tool using a quick connect fitting, and check
the air pressure reading on the regulator to ensure it does not exceed 110 PSI.
Check the tool for any air leeks.
7. Place the tool, empty of fasteners, in operating position on a scrap work
piece - fully depress the Safety and pull the Trigger to verify that the
tool cycles.
8. Disconnect the air hose from the tool when:
• Loading nails and/or caps
• Performing inspection, maintenance, or repair
• Clearing a nail or collated cap jam

• Leaving the work area
• Moving the tool to another work location
• Handing the tool to another person
• Storing the tool
9. Following recommended loading instructions, load the fastener approved
for use in the tool.
10. Cycle the tool on a scrap piece to evaluate the depth of penetration by
the fastener into the work piece.
11. To adjust the depth of penetration, regulate the air pressure at the air
compressor and/or disconnect the air hose, adjust the depth control wheel,
connect the air hose, and cycle the tool on a scrap work piece to evaluate the
adjustment.
12. Repeat Step 11 as needed to set the correct depth, using the minimum
