Operating the Tool
lUbRICaTION
This tool requires lubrication before
using the tool for the first time and
before each use. If an inline oiler is
used, manual lubrication through the
air inlet is not required on a daily basis.
The work surface
can become
damaged by excessive lubrication.
Proper lubrication is the owner's
responsibil- ity. Failure to lubricate
the tool properly will dramatically
shorten the life of the tool and void the
warranty.
1. Disconnect the
air supply from
the tool to add
lubricant.
2. Turn the tool so the
air inlet is facing up.
Place 4-5 drops of 30
W non-detergent oil
into air inlet. Do not
use detergent oils, oil
additives, or air tool oils. Air tool oils
contain solvents which will damage
the tool's internal components.
3. After adding oil, run
tool briefly. Wipe off
any excess oil from
the cap exhaust.
RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
The illustration below shows the
recommended hookup for the tool.
1. The air
compressor
must be able
to maintain a
minimum of
60 psi when the tool is being used.
An inadequate air supply can cause
a loss of power and inconsistent
driving.
2. An oiler can be
used to provide oil
circulation through
the tool. A filter can
be used to remove
liquid and solid
impurities which can rust or "gum
up" internal parts of the tool.
3. Use 1/4 inch
air hoses with
a minimum
working
pressure of
150 psi. Use 3/8 inch air hoses for
50 ft. run or longer. For better
performance, install a 3/8 inch quick
plug (1/4 inch NPT threads) with an
inside diameter of .315 inch (8mm)
on the tool and a 3/8 inch quick
coupler on the air hose.
4. Use a pressure regulator on the
compressor, with an operating
pressure of 0 -125 psi. A pressure
regulator is required to control
the operating pressure of the tool
between 60 and 100 psi.
SINGlE SEqUENTIal MODE
This mode requires
the trigger to be
pulled each time a
fastener is driven.
The tool can be
actuated by depressing the WCE against
the work surface followed by pulling
the trigger.
The trigger must be released to reset
the tool before another fastener can be
driven.
