TOOL AIR FITTING
These tools use a free-flow connector plug, 1/4 N.P.T. The inside diameter should be
.200" (5 mm) or larger. The fitting must be capable of discharging tool air pressure when
disconnected from the air supply.
OPERATING PRESSURE
70 to 100 p.s.i.g. (4.9 to 7.0 kg/cm
2
). Select the operating pressure within this range for
best fastener performance.
DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.
OPERATION
BOSTITCH OFFERS TWO TYPES OF OPERATION.
CONTACT TRIP
The common operating procedure on “Contact Trip” tools is for the operator to contact the work to actuate
the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving a fastener each time the work is contacted.
This will allow rapid fastener placement on many jobs, such as sheathing, decking and pallet assembly. All
pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if
unintentionally allowed to recontact the work surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding trigger
pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This makes
accurate fastener placement easier, for instance on framing, toe nailing and crating applications. The Sequential
Trip allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a second fastener on recoil, as described
under “Contact Trip”. The Sequential Trip Tool has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally
drive a fastener if the tool is contacted against the work – or anything else – while the operator is holding the
trigger pulled.
