Read and follow all safety rules and

operating instructions in this manual

and on warning label of tool before us-

ing this tool. Failure to follow warnings

could result in DEATH or SERIOUS

INJURY.

WARNING: Some dust created by

using power tools contains chemicals

known to the State of California to

cause cancer and birth defects or

other reproductive harm.

WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean

and well lit. Cluttered benches

and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in

explosive atmospheres, such

as in the presence of flam-

mable liquids, gases, or dust.

Power tools create sparks which

may ignite the dust of fumes.

Keep bystanders, children and

visitors away while operating

a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Eye protection which con-

forms 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 loading,

operating and servicing this

tool. Eye protection is required

to guard against flying fasteners

and debris, which could cause

severe eye injury.

Additional safety protection

will be required in some

environments. For examples,

the working area my include ex-

posure to noise level which can

lead to hearing damage. The

employer and user must ensure

that any necessary hearing

protection is provided and used

by the operator and others in the

work area. Some environments

will require the use of head

protection equipment. When

required, the employer and user

must ensure that head protection

conforming to ANSI Z89.1-1997

is used.

Stay alert, watch what you

are doing and use common

sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use tool while tired

or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment

of inattention while operating

power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

Dress properly. Do not wear

loose clothing or jewelry. Contain

long hair. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewelry, or long hair can be

caught in moving parts.

Keep fingers away from trig-

ger when not driving fasteners

to avoid accidental firing.

Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times.

Proper footing and balance

enables better control of the tool

in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Dust mask,

nonskid safety shoes, hard hat,

or hearing protection must be

used for appropriate conditions.

Do not use a ladder or unsta-

ble support. Stable footing on

a solid surface enables better

control of the tool in unexpected

situations.

Store idle tools out of reach of

children and other untrained

persons. Tools are dangerous in

the hands of untrained users.

OPERATION

Check operations of the

workpiece contact mechanism

frequently. Do not use the tool

if the workpiece contact mecha-

nism is not working correctly as

accidental driving of a fastener

may result. Do not interfere with

the proper operation of the work-

piece contact mechanism.

Use only the size and type

of fasteners designated in

the Specifications list in this

manual,

Keep the tool and its handle

dry, clean and free from oil

and grease. Always use a

clean cloth when cleaning.

Never use brake fluids, gasoline,

petroleum-based products, or

any strong solvents to clean

your tools. Following this rule

will reduce the risk of loss of

control and deterioration of the

enclosure plastic.

Do not use oxygen, combus-

tible gases or bottled gases

as a power source for this tool

as tool will explode, possible

causing injury or death.

Do not use with an air com-

pressor which can potentially

exceed 200 psi as tool may

burst, possibly causing injury.

Always disconnect air supply:

Before making adjustments

When servicing the tool

When clearing a jam

When tool is not in use

When moving to a different work

area, as accidental actuation

may occur, possibly causing

injury.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when clean-

ing plastic parts. Most plastics are

susceptible to damage from various

types of commercial solvents and

may be damaged by their use. Use

a clean cloth to remove dirt, dust, oil,

grease, etc.

WARNING: Do not at any time

let brake fluids, gasoline, petro-

leum-based projects, penetrating

oils, etc., come in contact with plastic

parts. Chemicals can damage, weak-

en or destroy plastic.

LUBRICATION

Frequent, but not excessive, lubrica-

tion is required for best performance.

Lubricate tool with quality air tool oil.

If no air tine lubricator is used, place

a few drops of oil into open end of

tool nosepiece. Oil for pneumatic

fastening tools added through the

airline connection will lubricate the

internal parts. Do not use detergent

oil or additives as these lubricants will

cause accelerated wear to the seals

and bumpers in the tool, resulting in

poor tool performance and frequent

tool maintenance.

COLD WEATHER OPERATION

For cold weather operation, near and

below freezing, the moisture in the

air line may freeze and prevent tool

operation. Use air tool lubricant as a

cold weather lubricant.

CAUTION: Do not store tools in a cold

weather environment to prevent frost

or ice formation on the tool operating

valves and mechanisms that could

cause tool failure.

NOTE: Some commercial air tine

drying liquids are harmful to "O" rings

and seals. Do not use these low tem-

perature air dryers without checking

compatibility.

AIR SUPPLY PRESSURE AND

VOLUME

Air volume is as important as air

pressure. The air volume supplied to

the too! may be inadequate because

of undersize fittings and hoses, or

from the effects of dirt and water in the

system. Restricted air flow will prevent

the toot from receiving an adequate

volume of air, even though the pres-

sure reading is high. The results will

be a slow operation or reduced driving

power. Before evaluating tool prob-

lems for these symptoms, trace the

air supply from the tool to the supply

source for restrictive connectors, low

points containing water and anything

else that would prevent fuji volume

flow of air to the tool.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION

* Tool does * Inadequate air * Verify adequate air

nothing or supply supply

operates * Inadequate * Lubricate tool

sluggishly lubrication * Replace O-rings

* Worn, damaged O- and/or bumper

rings or bumper

* Tool jams * Incorrect fasteners * Verify that fasteners

frequently * Damaged fasteners are the correct size

* Replace fasteners
