Single Fire Mode
Single firing (sequential actuation) provides the
most accurate fastener placement. This is
considered to be more restrictive mode of
operation, suitable for less experienced users.
To use the tool in Single Fire Mode, the work
contact element and trigger must be used in a
specific order.
1. Reinstall battery pack and turn the tool on
by pressing the Power Button (F).
2. Press the Mode Selection Button (G). The
Single Fire Indicator will light up.
3. Completely depress the work contact
element by pressing the nose of the tool
against the work piece.
4. Pull the trigger firmly and then release. The
tool must be allowed to fully recoil away
from the work piece. The trigger must be
pulled firmly and then released.
5. Press the Power Button (F) to turn off the
tool when finished.
Note: If the trigger is pulled before the work
contact element is depressed, the tool will
not operate.
Bump Fire Mode
Bump firing (contact actuation) allows very fast,
repetitive fastener placement. This mode is
recommended when less precise nail
placement is required. Extreme care should be
taken since nails will be driven into any surface
when the work contact element is pressed.

Since the tool can be fired without removing
the finger from the trigger, this is considered
to be a less restrictive mode and is suitable for
more experienced users.
To use the tool in Bump Fire Mode, the work
contact element and trigger can be actuated in
any order.
1. Reinstall battery pack and activate the tool
by pressing the Power Button (F).
2. Press the Mode Selection Button (G). The
Bump Fire Indicator will light up.

3. Pull and hold the trigger with the tool off the
work piece.
4. Press the work contact element against the
work piece to drive a nail. The tool must be
allowed to recoil away from the work piece.
5. Move the tool along the work piece with a
bouncing motion. Each time the work
contact element is depressed a nail will be
driven.
6. As soon as the desired number of nails has
been driven, remove finger from trigger.
7. Press the Power Button (F) to turn off the
tool when finished.
WARNING:
Remove your finger from the trigger
when not driving nails. Always carry the
tool by the handle only.
WARNING:
The tool must be allowed to recoil away
from the work piece. Do not drive a nail
on top of another nail.
WARNING:
During normal use the tool will recoil
immediately after driving a fastener. This
is a normal function of the tool. Do not
attempt to prevent the recoil by holding
the nailer against the work. Restriction
to the recoil can result in a second
fastener being driven from the nailer.
Failure to heed this warning can result in
serious personal injury.
