WARNING
NEVER point tool at yourself or others in work
area.
Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving
nails to avoid accidental firing.
Choice of triggering method is important.
Please read and understand "METHODS OF
OPERATION" found below.
Never place your hands or feet closer than 8
inches (200 mm) from firing head when using.
Do not drive nails on top of other nails or with
Nailer at too steep of an angle; nails can ricochet
and hurt someone.
In order to avoid double fire or unwanted ejection
of a nail due to bouncing of the Nailer.
1) do not push Nailer on workpiece with strong
force;
2) take Nailer away from workpiece using recoil;
3) release trigger quickly when performing trigger
fire.
Do not drive nails into thin boards or near corners
and edges of workpiece. Nails can be driven
through or away from workpiece and hit
someone.
Never drive nails from both sides of a wall at the
same time. Nails can be driven into and through
the wall and hit a person on the opposite side.
Never use Nailer which is defective or operating
abnormally.
Do not use Nailer as hammer.
Disconnect air hose from Nailer when:
1) it is not in use;
2) leaving work area;
3) moving it to another location; and
4) handing it to another person.
This Hitachi nailer has a STANDARD CONTACT TRIP
MECHANISM (Bounce Fire). An OPTIONAL SEQUENTIAL
TRIP MECHANISM kit (SINGLE SHOT) is available as order
part number 876762.
THE STANDARD CONTACT TRIP MECHANISM (Bounce
Fire) is for use where rapid fastener placement is desired
and must be operated in accordance with the following
"Methods of Operation".
METHODS OF OPERATION
This Nailer is equipped with the push lever and does not
operate unless the push lever is depressed (upward
position).
There are two methods of operation to drive nails with
this Nailer.
They are:
1.
Intermittent operation (Trigger fire):
2.
Continuous operation (Push lever fire):
(1) Intermittent operation (Trigger fire)
1 Position the nail outlet on the workpiece with
finger off the trigger.
2 Depress the push lever firmly until it is completely
depressed.
3 Pull the trigger to drive a nail.
4 Remove finger from the trigger.
To drive another nail, move the Nailer along the
workpiece and repeat this procedure.
2
(2) Continuous operation (Push lever fire)
1 Pull the trigger with the Nailer off the workpiece.
2 Depress the push lever against the workpiece to
drive a nail.
3 Move the Nailer along the workpiece with a
bouncing motion.
Each depression of the push lever will drive a nail.
As soon as the desired number of nails have been
driven, remove finger from the trigger.
3
Keep your finger off the trigger except during
fastening operation, because serious injury could
result if the push lever accidentally contacts you
or others in work area.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge
area. The nailer with contact trip mechanism may
bounce from the recoil of driving a fastener and
unwanted subsequent fastener may be driven,
possibly causing injury.
Some types of loaded nails can spark out of the
muzzle during a nail driving operation. Exericise
caution!
