AIR SOURCE
The FCN50 is designed to operate on clean, dry,
compressed air, regulated at 70 to 90 psi / 488 to
621 kPa / 4.9 to 6.1 bar. The preferred system
would include a lter, a pressure regulator, and
an automatic oiler located as close to the tool as
possible (within 5 meters (15 feet) is ideal). Do
not use bottled air or gases.
Determine if it is necessary to lubricate. All
compressed air contains moisture and other
contaminants that can harm the internal
components of the tool. An air line lter will
remove most of these and signicantly prolong the
life of the tool. If you are using an in-line automatic
oiler, check and add oil if necessary. If an in-line
oiler is not available, place 2 drops of oil into the
tool’s Air Plug (FCN50-46) at the beginning of each
workday. More than this will be expelled from the
tool’s exhaust during ring.
Air Fitting: The FCN50 is equipped with a 1/4”
NPT male plug for a ‘quick connector’. To prevent
accidental cycling even though disconnected, the
tool must always be connected to the air supply
in such a way that all air pressure in it is released
when the coupling is disconnected.
CAUTION:
=All air line components (including hoses, pipe,
connectors, lters, & regulators, etc.) must
be rated for a minimum working pressure
of 150 psi / 1034 kPa / 10.3 bar or 150%
of the maximum system pressure, whichever
is greater.
=Disconnect the tool from the air supply before
performing maintenance, clearing a jammed
fastener, leaving the work area, moving the tool to
another location, or handing it to another person.
PREPARING THE TOOL
Be sure that the spacer (FCN50-25) attached to
your tool is suitable for the thickness of ooring.
The tool comes with a spacer attached designed
for 20 mm (25/32”) thick (nominally 3/4”) ooring.
If the ooring you are installing is 12.5 mm (1/2”)
thick, remove the three screws (FCN50-26) and

the spacer from the bottom of the shoe (FCN50-
24).
Replace the spacer with the other spacer included
and attach it with the three screws (FCN50-26).
After reading and understanding this entire
manual, connect tool to air supply.
Turn on the air compressor and adjust the
regulator to the proper pressure for the fastener
size you are using. (See Using the Tool, below
with regard to adjusting this.)
CAUTION:
=Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and
others at all times.
=Always connect the tool to air supply before
loading fasteners.
=Do not load fasteners with safety or trigger
depressed.
=Always wear approved safety glasses and
hearing protection when preparing or operating
this tool.
=Never use a tool that leaks air or needs repair.
LOADING FASTENERS
Drop a stick of cleat nails into the L-shaped hole
at the back of the magazine (A). Pull back the
slide (Bracket- FCN50-39) until the feeder shoe
(FCN50-41) clicks behind the cleat nails to hold
them against the front of the magazine with the
spring.
The tool is ready to operate.
USING THE TOOL
Complete all the steps in Preparing the Tool and
Loading Fasteners, above, before using the tool.
NOTE: Use care when installing pre-nished
ooring with this tool. It is designed to install
unnished ooring and may leave marks on the
nish of pre-nished ooring. Always test re
the FCN50 on a sample piece of ooring before
starting a new job to ensure it does not damage
the oor nish.
Connect the tool with the air supply. Make sure
the air pressure is within the range given in
SPECIFICATIONS above.

The depth to which a cleat nail is driven is
determined by the supplied air pressure. Test re
a cleat nail into a sample of the material you will be
working on and check its driven depth.
If a change is desired, adjust the regulator to
supply air at a higher or lower pressure.
Test re another fastener and check depth again.
Adjust as necessary.
Tightly set a piece of ooring into position.
Position the tool against the edge of the ooring
where you want the cleat nail driven.
Hold the handle (FCN50-45 ARM in the parts list)
rmly with one hand, while swinging the mallet
(FCN50-47 HAMMER) with the other.
Strike the trigger button (FCN50-10 HAMMER
FACE) rmly with the mallet (FCN50-47
HAMMER). The blow will tap the oor board more
tightly into position, while at the same time, ring a
cleat nail at the correct angle into the edge of the
board.
Lift the tool off the work surface.
CAUTION:
=Keep tool pointed in a safe direction at all times.
=Never attempt to drive cleat nails into materials
too hard to penetrate, or at too steep an angle, or
too near the edge of the workpiece. The fastener
can ricochet causing personal injury.
=Disconnect tool from air supply before doing any
disassembly, maintenance, clearing a jammmed
fastener, leaving the work area, moving the tool
to another location, or handing the tool to another
person.
=Clean and inspect the tool daily. Carefully
check for proper operation of trigger and safety
mechanism. Do not use the tool unless both the
trigger and the safety mechanism are functional,
or if the tool is leaking air or needs any other
repair.

MAINTENANCE
CLEARING A JAMMED CLEAT NAIL
CAUTION: Disconnect the tool from the air supply.
Pull back the slide (Bracket- FCN50-39) and tilt
the magazine so the stick of cleat nails slides back
with the feeder shoe (FCN50-41).
Push your index nger into the hole in the slide
(Bracket- FCN50-39) and with it depress the back
end of the feeder shoe. This will lift up the front
end of the feeder shoe and allow the fasteners
to slide past it and out the back. You may have
to depress the additional magazine spring piece
(FCN50-31). Gently allow the feeder shoe to move
back to the front of the magazine.
Use a slender, soft steel rod to push the drive
blade up the blade guide to its uppermost position.
If possible, remove the jammed fastener with
needle nose pliers through the magazine side slot,
taking care not to damage the spring.
If not, it may be necessary to remove the blade
guide (FCN50-22) to access the front of the
fastener slide.
Follow instructions in Preparing the Tool to reload
fasteners.
CLEAN AND INSPECT DAILY
CAUTION: Disconnect tool from air supply before
cleaning and inspection. Correct all problems
before putting the tool back in service.
Frequent, but not excessive lubrication is required
for the best performance. Oil added through the
air line connection will lubricatethe inside parts.
An automatic oiler is recommended, but 2 drops
of oil may be added manually into the tool’s Air
Plug (FCN50-46) at the beginning of each workday
and after about every hour of continuous use.
Only a few drops at a time are necessary. More
than this will pool inside the tool and be expelled
from the tool’s exhaust during ring. USE ONLY
PNEUMATIC TOOL OIL. Do not use detergent
oil or oil with other additives, as these can cause
accelerated wear on the seals.
Use a small amount of oil on external moving parts
and pivots.
