Operating Instructions and Parts Manual
Pre-Operation (Continued)
PRE-USE TEST
Before loading the tool, test the nailer to ensure proper operation.
Pull pusher handle back to the end of the magazine until it locks
into position.
1. Keep finger OFF the trigger. Depress the WCE by placing nose
of tool against a solid surface and depressing the nose as
you would for normal use. The tool MUST NOT actuate (see
Figure 13). At this point, the tool should eject a small, metered
quantity of fuel into the combustion chamber. The tool fan
should start, dispersing any gaseous exhaust.
2. Remove tool from work surface. Pull the trigger and hold trigger
for five seconds. The tool MUST NOT actuate and the trigger
SHOULD NOT fully depress (see Figure 14).
3. REMOVE finger from the trigger. Depress the WCE by placing
nose of tool against a solid surface and depressing the nose
as you would for normal use. Pull the trigger. The tool MUST
actuate (see Figure 15).
If the tool performs as expected in the three steps above, the tool is
ready to be loaded with fasteners.
LOADING AND UNLOADING
Disconnect the battery and fuel cell
from the tool before loading or
unloading the tool. Such precautionary measures reduce
the risk of injury to persons.
Loading the Tool
When loading fasteners into the tool,
DO NOT depress the trigger, DO NOT
depress the work contact element, and keep the tool
pointed in a safe direction.
To load the tool, do the following:
1. Pull the fastener pusher to the bottom of the magazine
until the fastener pusher is locked in place (see
Figure 16).
2. Insert nail strip into the back of the magazine (see
Figure 17).
3. Press down on the fastener pusher button and guide
the fastener pusher up to meet the bottom of the clip
of nails placed in the magazine (see Figure 18).
NOTE: DO NOT release the fastener pusher knob to spring
back towards the clip of nails loaded into the magazine.
This can damage the nail clip and could cause the tool to
jam.
The tool is now ready for use. See Operation section of
this manual for tool use instructions.
Unloading the Tool
1. Pull the fastener pusher to the bottom of the magazine
until the fastener pusher is locked in place (see
Figure 16).
2. Turn tool to the upright position. All remaining nails
in magazine will slide out the bottom of the magazine
(see Figure 19).
