Contact Actuation Mechanism Definition
The contact actuation mechanism allows rapid placement of fasteners. Use the switch next to the LED
Indicator to change modes. The tool should only actuate if the Workpiece Contact is pressed against the
workpiece and the Trigger is pulled. It should actuate again if the Trigger is released and pulled OR if the
Workpiece Contact is lifted and pressed against the workpiece again. The tool should not actuate if the
Workpiece Contact is not pressed against an object. Contact Actuation should only be enabled and
used by skilled operators who are aware of the hazards and use proper, safe work practices.
