DeWalt DCN662 - Adjusting Nail Depth; Headlights and Jammed Nail Clearing

ENGLISH
Mode Selection
The finish nailer is capable of firing nails using bump actuation
or sequential actuation. Before operating this tool, look at the
selector switch to determine the actuation mode. Read all
instructions before selecting actuationmode.

WARNING: Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not
driving nails to avoid accidental fastener discharge.
NEVER carry tool with finger on trigger. In bump mode
tool will drive a nail if contact trip is bumped while trigger
isdepressed.
Sequential Action (Fig.D)
Use sequential actuation mode for intermittent nailing where
very careful and accurate placement and depth control is
desired. The sequential actuation mode provides the maximum
delivery of power for driving the longestnails.
To operate the nailer in sequential actuation mode:
1. Slide the selector switch
8
to expose the single nail
icon .
2. Fully depress nosepiece against the work surface (motor
willstart).
3. Pull trigger (nail will drive into worksurface).
4. Releasetrigger.
5. Lift nosepiece off worksurface.
6. Repeat steps 2through 4for nextapplication.
NOTICE: The contact trip needs to be depressed followed
by a trigger pull for each nail followed by a release of both
the contact trip and trigger after eachnail.
Bump Action (Fig.D)
Bump action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary
surfaces and typically most effective for applications that require
driving shorternails.
When the tool is set in the bump actuation mode, two
methods of tool operation are available: place actuation and
bumpactuation.
Slide the selector switch
8
to expose the triple nail icon .
To operate the tool using the place actuation method:

WARNING: A nail will be driven each time the trigger is
depressed as long as the contact trip remainsdepressed.
1. Depress the contact trip against the worksurface.
2. Depress thetrigger.
To operate the tool using the bump actuation method:
1. Depress thetrigger.

consists of three green LED lights that indicate the level of
charge remaining in the batterypack.
To actuate the fuel gauge
18
, press and hold the fuel gauge
button. A combination of the three green LED lights will
illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the level
of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge
will not illuminate and the battery will need to berecharged.
NOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on
the battery pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is
subject to variation based on product components, temperature
and end‑userapplication.
