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:
3. Depress thetrigger.
4. Push the contact trip against the work surface. As long as
the trigger is depressed, the tool will drive a nail every time
the contact trip is depressed. This allows the user to drive
multiple nails insequence.

WARNING: Do not keep trigger depressed when tool is not
in use. Keep the trigger lock-off in the locked position when
the tool is not inuse.

WARNING: When the tool’s motor is running, pulling
the trigger or depressing the contact trip will cause a nail
tobedriven.

Each
DeWALT nailer is equipped with a trigger lock-off
2
which
when pushed to the right as shown in FigureE, prevents the
tool from firing a nail by locking the trigger and bypassing
power to themotor.
When the trigger lock-off is pressed to the left, the tool will be
fully operational. The trigger lock-off should always be locked
off whenever any adjustments are made or when tool is not in
immediateuse.
NOTICE: Do not store tool with battery pack installed. To
prevent damage to the pack and to ensure best battery
life, store battery packs out of the tool or charger in a cool,
drylocation.

Dryfire Lock Out Feature (Fig. A)
Your nailer is equipped with a dryfire lock out feature to prevent
it from cycling when there are no fasteners loaded. When
the low nail indicator

is visible, the tool is running low on
fasteners. When this happens, the tool will be locked out and
will not actuate until more nails are loaded. (Refer to Loading
the Tool.)
