Operating Instructions and Parts Manual

Set-Up

lubrICatIoN

This nailer requires No lubrication for normal operation. However, lubrication will
NoT harm the tool.
The work surface can become damaged by excessive lubrication.

MINIMuM CoMPoNeNts reQuIred For Hook-uP

AIR CoMPReSSoR: The air compressor must be able to maintain a minimum of 60 psi
when the nailer is being used. An inadequate air supply can cause a loss of power and
inconsistent driving (see Chart 1).
PReSSURe ReGULAToR: A pressure regulator is required to control the operating
pressure of the nailer between 60 psi and 100 psi.
AIR SUPPLY HoSe: ALWAYS use air supply hoses with a minimum working pressure
rating equal to or greater than the pressure from the power source, or 150 psi,
whichever is greater. Use 1/4 inch air hose for runs up to 50 feet. Use 3/8 inch air hoses
for 50 ft. run or longer (see Figure 6 and Chart 2).

Hook-uP INstruCtIoNs For NaIler to aIr suPPly

Figure 8 shows the recommended hookup for the nailer.
NoTe: For better performance, install a 3/8 inch quick plug (1/4 inch NPT threads) with
an inside diameter of 0.315 inch (8 mm) on the nailer and a 3/8 inch quick coupler on
the air hose.
1. With ON/OFF switch in OFF position, plug compressor into electrical outlet.
2. Close pressure regulator by turning all the way to the left. Turn compressor ON and
let it pump all the way up to automatic shut-off pressure.
3. Attach air hose to regulator outlet. Adjust pressure regulator by turning to the right
so that outlet pressure is between 60 psi to 100 psi.
4. Load fasteners into nailer (See Loading/Unloading the Nailer section on page 10).
5. Point the nailer in a safe direction while attaching to air hose.
6. Nailer is ready for use. You may need to adjust outlet pressure to achieve proper
fastener depth.
