CLEARING A JAM
A typical problem you may encounter is having a jammed fastener. Because of the unique
design of the Trak-It tool, clearing a jammed fastener is quick and easy.
1. Remove fuel cell and battery from the tool.
2. Remove the fastener strips from the magazine.
CAUTION — FAILURE TO PULL THE FOLLOWER TO ITS BACK AND LOCKED
POSITION MAY RESULT IN PINS FLYING TOWARDS THE OPERATOR UPON OPENING
THE JAM CLEAR UNIT.
3. Open the Jam Clear Lever Unit located at the front of the nose piece.
4. Slide and swing the lever unit to its open position.
At this point, the jammed fastener should fall out. If the jammed fastener does not fall
out, carefully remove the fastener taking care not to damage the Nose Piece.
After you have removed the jammed fastener take the following steps to close the nose
piece door:
1. Swing and slide the Jam Clear Lever Unit back into its
closed position.
2. Snap the spring loaded latch back into its fully locked
position.
3. Load again the fastener strips into the magazine.
DANGER — MAKE SURE THAT THE JAM CLEAR LEVER UNIT IS FULLY CLOSED AND
SECURE. ATTEMPTING TO USE TOOL WITH THE JAM CLEAR LEVER UNIT IN A
PARTIALLY OPENED POSITION MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF FASTENER CONTROL,
DAMAGE TO TOOL, OR PIN DISCHARGE TOWARD TOOL OPERATOR.
