of coarse dust, chips, sand etc. will result in leaks and
damage to the tool and the couplings.
COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM
Proper functioning of the fastener driving tool requires
filtered, dry < and lubricated > compressed air in
adequate quantities.
If the air pressure in the line system exceeds the maximum
allowable pressure of the fastener driving tool, a pressure
reducing valve followed by a downstream safety valve shall
additionally be fitted in the supply line to the tool.
Connect the fastener driving tool to the compressed air
supply using suitable pressure hose equipped with quick-
action connectors.
The compressor plant shall be adequately dimensioned
in terms of pressure output and performance (volumetric
flow) for the consumption which is to be expected. Line
sections which are too small in relation to the length of
the line (pipes and hoses), as well as overloading the
compressor, will result in pressure drops.
Permanently laid compressed air pipelines should have an
internal diameter of at least 19 mm and a corresponding
large diameter where relatively long pipelines or multiple
users are involved.
Compressed air pipelines should be laid so as to form a
gradient (highest point in the direction to the compressor).
Easilyaccessiblewaterseparatorsshouldbeinstalledat
the lowest points.
Junctions for users should be joined to the pipelines from
above.
Connecting points for fastener driving tools should be
fitted with a compressed air servicing unit (filter/water
separator/oiler) directly at the junction point.
Oilers must be checked on a daily basis and if necessary
topped up with the recommended grade of oil (see
TECHNICALDATA).Wherehoselengthsofover10m
are used, the oil supply for the fastener driving tool cannot
be guaranteed. We therefore recommend that 2 to 5
drops (depending on the loading of the fastener driving
tool)oftherecommendedoil(seeTECHNICALDATA)
should be added via the air inlet of the tool, or an oiler
attached directly to the fastener driving tool.
TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
If a staple jam occurs, disconnect tool from air supply.
(Figure 3)
Release magazine and slide the rail back. (Figure 5)
Remove jammed fasteners. (Figure 7)
MAINTENANCE: While tool is disconnected from air
supply, make daily inspection to ensure free movement of
safety yoke and trigger.
All screws should be kept tight. Loose screws result in
unsafe operation and parts breakage.

Only use supplied oil for the tool or recommended oil in
the technical specifications. Keep the tool clean. Wipe it
regularly with a dry cloth, and inspect for wear. Lubricate
the sliding parts of the magazine occasionally to prevent
wear.
Do not use flammable cleaning solutions. Do not soak
and use solvent, such solutions may damage O-rings and
other sensitive tool parts. Use clean, dry air. Preferably
use a processing unit of compressed air upstream of the
connection of the tool. Repairs other than those described
here should be performed only by trained, qualified
personnel or by after-sales-service of the producer.
