INTRODUCTION
STATEMENT FROM POWERS FASTENERS
Powers Fasteners would like to thank you for purchasing the model C3 power fastening
tool. This tool has been designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards in
order to provide you with many years of trouble free performance. It is recommended that
this manual be read from cover to cover prior to operating the tool so as to become
familiar with all recommended safety warnings and precautions. Please note that the C3
tool, similar to other power fastening tools, will require minor routine maintenance to
keep it operating at optimum performance. Take note of the recommended maintenance
tips since proper maintenance will ultimately determine the life expectancy of the tool.
TRAK-IT TOOL OPERATING MANUAL
This manual is intended to familiarize you with the Powers Fasteners Trak-It tool. Unlike
other power fastening tools which are electric or use gunpowder, the Trak-It tool is
powered by an internal combustion linear motor which is similar to your car engine. The
tool ignites a proprietary fuel in the presence of air which drives a piston that strikes a
fastener. As you will see, the Trak-It tool is totally self-contained with a fuel cell, battery,
and a supply of fasteners.
For ease of use, this manual is divided into sections (see Contents). Each section of the
manual is written with you, the tool operator, in mind. We have left out all of the technical
terms so that you can readily understand how to get the maximum performance from your
Trak-It tool, and how to avoid damaging the tool or injuring yourself. But, to accomplish
this, we need you to do two things which you will see on the page below.
1. READ THE MANUAL FROM COVER TO COVER BEFORE USING THE TOOL.
2. FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL.
The Trak-It tool should be handled like other power fastening tools that you use. When
used properly, it will meet your fastening needs. And, like most of your tools, when used
improperly it can cause injury. If you are going to allow others to use the Trak-It tool, it is
your responsibility to make sure that they also read and comply with the instructions in
this manual before attempting to operate the tool.
Should you have questions about the Trak-It system, or wish to obtain additional copies
of this manual, please feel free to contact the Powers Fasteners customer service
department at 1-914 235 6300 in the USA or www.powers.com. If purchased overseas
please locate our nearest factory location listed on page 2.
