10. Pneumatic tools should only be powered by
compressed air at the lowest pressure required
for the work process to reduce noise and
vibration, and minimize wear.
11. Using oxygen
operating pneumatic tools creates a fire and
explosion hazard.
12. Be careful when using pneumatic tools as the
tool could become cold, affecting grip and
control.
Additional warnings for tools with contact actuation
capability
1. Do not rest your finger on the trigger when
picking up the tool, moving between operating
areas and positions or walking, as resting finger
on trigger can lead to inadvertent operation. For
tools with selective actuation, always check the
tool before use to ascertain the correct mode is
selected.
2. This tool has either selective actuation for
contact actuation
actuation by actuation mode selectors or is a
contact actuation
contact tool and has been marked with the
symbol above. Its intended uses are for
production applications
furniture, manufactured housing, upholstery and
sheathing.
3. If using this tool in selective actuation mode,
always ensure it is in the correct actuation
setting.
4. Do not use this tool in contact actuation for
applications such as closing boxes or crates
and fitting transportation safety systems on
trailers and lorries.
5. Be careful when changing from one driving
location to another.
Safety devices
1. Make sure all safety systems are in working
order before operation. The tool must not operate
if only the trigger is pulled or if only the contact arm
is pressed against the wood. It must work only when
both actions are performed. Test for possible faulty
operation with fasteners unloaded and the pusher in
fully pulled position.
2. Securing the trigger in the ON position is very
dangerous. Never attempt to fasten the trigger.
3. Do not attempt to keep the contact element
depressed with tape or wire. Death or serious
injury may occur.
4. Always check contact element as instructed in
this manual. Fasteners may be driven accidentally
if the safety mechanism is not working correctly.
Service
1. Perform cleaning and maintenance right after
finishing the job. Keep the tool in tip-top condition.
Lubricate moving parts to prevent rusting and
minimize frictionrelated wear. Wipe off all dust from
the parts.
2. Ask Makita authorized
periodical inspection of the tool.

3. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
maintenance and repairs should be performed
by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.

product (gained from repeated use) replace strict
adherence to safety rules for the subject product.
MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in
this instruction manual may cause serious personal
injury.
PARTS DESCRIPTION (Fig. 2)
INSTALLATION
Selecting compressor (Fig. 3)
The air compressor must comply with the requirements
of EN60335-2-34.
Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air
output to assure cost-efficient operation. The graph
shows the relation between nailing frequency, applicable
pressure and compressor air output.
contact
Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of
approximately 60 times per minute at a compression of
0.68 MPa (6.89 bar), a compressor with an air output
over 281 L/minute is required.
Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to
pallets,
the rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure
exceeds the tool's rated pressure. Failure to do so may
result in serious injury to tool operator or persons in the
vicinity.
Selecting air hose (Fig. 4)
Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to
assure continuous, efficient nailing operation. With an air
pressure of 0.49 MPa (4.9 bar), an air hose with an
internal diameter of over 8.0 mm and a length of less
than 20 m is recommended when the interval between
each nailing is 1 second. Air supply hoses shall have a
minimum working pressure rating of 1.03 MPa (10.3 bar)
or 150 percent of the maximum pressure produced in the
system whichever is higher.
CAUTION:
• Low air output of the compressor, or a long or smaller
diameter air hose in relation to the nailing frequency
may cause a decrease in the driving capability of the
tool.
Lubrication (Fig. 5)
To insure maximum performance, install an air set (oiler,
regulator, air filter) as close as possible to the tool. Adjust
the oiler so that one drop of oil will be provided for every
50 nails.
When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic
tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air
fitting. This should be done before and after use. For
proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of
times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced. (Fig. 6)
