OPERATION
There are two ways for working with this nailer (see also picture
section):
Single Sequential Actuation:
Drive the fastener by pulling the trigger.
Contact (Bump) Actuation:
Hold the trigger and drive the fastener by pushing the nailer against
the workpiece.
Reload Indicator
To indicate that the magazine is almost empty of fasteners (about
4-5 left), the workpiece contact will not compress, preventing
operation under usual pressure. Install more fasteners to continue
working.
Setting the Depth of Drive (see picture section)
Know what is behind your workpiece. A fastener could travel
through the workpiece and out the other side, striking a bystander
and causing serious injury. Lower the depth of drive to prevent the
fastener from being pushed all the way through the workpiece.
Thermal Overload
If the tool overheats, it will stop working and the power button/
actuation indicators will fl ash. Once the tool cools down, the tool will
revert to the selected mode. Restart work as normal.
CLEARING A JAMMED FASTENER
Most jams are caused by a fastener or part of a fastener wedging
between the driver blade and the nail guide. Fastener strips with an
incorrect collation angle or the wrong fastener gauge may cause
continuous jamming.
To clear the jam:
1. Remove battery pack.
2. WARNING! Always point the tool away from yourself and others
when installing or removing fasteners. Failure to do so could
result in injury.
3. Remove fastener strip from magazine.
4. Remove the fastener using needle-nose pliers. If necessary,
remove magazine from tool.
5. Follow the steps under "Required Daily Testing" before restarting
the work.
