Setting The Air Pressure; Depth Of Drive Adjustment - Ryobi P325 Manual Del Operador

NO-MAR PAD
See Figure 3, page 13.
The no-mar pad attached to the nose of the tool helps prevent
marring and denting when working with softer woods.
WARNING:
Remove the battery pack from the tool before removing
or replacing the no-mar pad. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury.
The pad can be removed by pulling it down and away from
the nose. To replace the pad, fit it into place over the nose
and push up at the back to reseat.
On-board storage for the pad is located on the magazine of
the tool. An extra no-mar pad is provided in the on-board
storage area.
LOADING THE TOOL WITH NAILS
See Figures 4 - 5, page 13.
 Remove battery pack from the tool.
 Depress the release button and slide the pusher all the
way to the rear of the magazine until it locks in place.
 With the nose of the tool pointed away from you, feed
a strip of nails into the magazine. Be sure the nails are
pointed downward and at the angle shown.
WARNING:
Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others
when loading nails. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious personal injury.
 Press the release button to release the pusher and allow it
to push the nails up to the driving mechanism. The pusher
will stop when it rests against the end of the nail strip.
NOTE: Do not allow the pusher to snap back into place.
WARNING:
Use only the nails recommended for use with this tool.
The use of any other nails can result in tool malfunction,
leading to serious injuries.
WARNING:
Never load nails with the workpiece contact or trigger
activated. Doing so could result in possible serious
personal injury.
OPERATION

SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE

See Figure 6, page 14.
The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size
of the nail and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail into
the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job.
 Remove battery pack from the tool.
 Move air pressure lever to the right to increase air pressure
or to the left to decrease pressure.
It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with air
pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are needed,
use the depth of drive adjustment on the tool.
NOTE: Under some conditions, the unit may not deliver a
nail when the air pressure lever is moved to the MAXIMUM
pressure setting. The user may need to decrease the pressure
setting for desired operation.

DEPTH OF DRIVE ADJUSTMENT

See Figure 7, page 14.
The driving depth of the nail may be adjusted beyond air
pressure. It is advisable to test the depth on a scrap workpiece
to determine the required depth for the application.
To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure and
drive a test nail. To achieve the desired depth, use the depth
of drive adjustment on the tool. Harder materials and longer
nails will require more force to drive the nail.
 Remove battery pack from the tool.
 Turn the depth of drive adjustment left or right to change
the driving depth.
 Reinstall battery and reactivate the tool by pressing the
worklight grip switch.
 Drive a test nail after each adjustment until the desired
depth is set.
NOTE: Set depth of drive at the shallowest depth that
will meet your needs.
USING THE TRIGGER MODE SELECTOR
See Figures 8 - 9, page 14.
WARNING:
Never wedge or hold back the workpiece contact
mechanism during operation of the tool. Doing so could
result in possible serious injury.
This tool is shipped from the factory with the trigger mode
selector set in the Single Sequential Actuation mode. The
trigger mode selector can also be set for Contact Actuation
mode.
