LED Indicator (Fig.A)
Your nailer is equipped with a LED indicator light
5
to alert you
of a jam/stall. Also refer to to the Troubleshooting Guide for
furtherinstruction.
No‑Mar Tip (Fig.A)
When using this tool on materials that you do not want to mark,
such as wood cladding, use the plastic no‑mar tip
13
over the
contact trip
3
.
NOTE: For maximum depth of drive, especially with long nails,
the no‑mar covered should beremoved.
Using the Trigger Lock‑Off (Fig.C)
Each
DEWALT
nailer is equipped with a trigger lock‑off
2
which
when pushed to the right as shown in FigureC, 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.
Actuating The Tool (Fig.A)
The tool can be operated using one of two modes:
Sequential Action Mode
The sequential action mode is used for intermittent nailing
when very careful and accurate placement is desired. It
also offers the maximum delivery of power for driving the
longestnails.
1. Using the mode selector switch
9
, select the sequential
action mode (
or .
2. Release the trigger safety lock‑off
2
.
3. Push the contact trip
3
against the worksurface.
4. Pull the trigger switch
1
to actuate thetool.
5. Release the trigger and raise the nailer from the
worksurface.
6. Repeat steps 3–5 to actuate the nextnail.
Contact Trip Mode
DCN692
Contact trip mode (also known as bump mode) is used for rapid
nailing on flat, stationary surfaces and typically most effective for
application driving shorternails.
1. Using the mode selector switch
9
to select the bump
action mode (
.
2. Release the trigger safety lock‑off
2
.
3. To drive a single nail, operate the tool as described for
sequential action:
Running in the Tool
Please note that this tool requires a run‑in period before it
operates with full power due to parts which need to mesh or
wear in together. It may be that the tool does not drive long
nails flush consistently during thisperiod.
Preparing The Tool (Fig.A)
1. Remove the battery pack
12
from the tool and ensure the
tool is lockedoff.
2. Remove all nails from the magazine
7
.
3. Check if the contact trip
3
can movefreely.
4. Reload the nails to themagazine.
5. Insert batterypack.

WARNING: Do not use the tool if the contact trip or nail
pusher cannot movefreely.
NOTICE: NEVER spray or in any other way apply
lubricants or cleaning solvents inside the tool. This can
seriously affect the life and performance of thetool.
Proper hand position requires one hand on the main handle
12
asshown.
Proper Hand Position (Fig.C)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
ALWAYS use proper hand position asshown.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, ALWAYS hold securely in anticipation of a
suddenreaction.
a. Push the contact trip
3
against the worksurface.
b. Pull the trigger switch
1
to actuate the tool. Each trigger
pull with the contact trip pushed against the work
surface will drive onenail.
4. To drive several nails, depress and hold the trigger switch
1
,
and then push the contact trip
3
repeatedly against the
worksurface.

WARNING: Do not keep the trigger depressed when the
tool is not in use. Keep the trigger safety lock‑off
2
in the
locked position to prevent accidental actuation when the
tool is not inuse.
5. When changing between sequential and bump modes,
it may be necessary to adjust the driving depth. Refer to
Adjusting the Driving Depth forinstructions.
RapidCycle Mode
DCN695
The RapidCycle mode is ideal for when the user fires many nails
in a sequence and needs to move more rapidly. The tool still
operates in a full sequential mode, but the motor readies itself
for the next nail immediately after firing to minimise time spent
waiting for the motor to get up tospeed.
1. Use the mode selector switch
9
to select the RapidCycle
mode
.
2. Release the trigger safety lock‑off
2
.
3. To drive a single nail, operate the tool as described in the
sequential action:
a. Push the contact trip
3
against the workpiece.
b. Pull the trigger switch
1
to actuate the tool. (You will
hear the motor spin up after the nail has beendriven).
4. To drive several nails simply repeat the directions in point
3. above. If you do not fire a nail within 2seconds of the
previous then the motor will coast down torest.
