CONNECTING THE TOOL TO AN AIR SUPPLY (Fig. 2)
Your tool should be connected to a properly installed compressed air supply. The working pressure of the air
compressor must be regulated by a regulator to fit the operating pressure of your nailer (60-100 PSI). Refer to the
diagram on the bottom (Fig. 2) for the recommended accessories and connection order.
WARNING: Make sure the nailer magazine is empty and the tip of the nailer is pointed away from you
when connecting to air supply.
WARNING: Use only clean dry and regulated air. Do not use bottled gases to power this tool. Danger
of explosion and/or serious personal injury may result. Do not operate when the air pressure is outside
of the recommended range (60 to 100 PSI).
1. Turn on the compressor on and set the regulator (Fig. 2 - Regulator) to the proper pressure within 60 to 100 PSI.
The pressure can be adjusted later depending on firing depth, length of fastener and hardness of the workpiece.
2. Connect the compressed air hose to the inlet of your air compressor. Connect the other end of the air hose to the
air inlet of the nailer. The connections must click into place audibly. Use appropriate hose tape to prevent leaking.
3. To disconnect the tool from the air hose, pull back the ring on the quick connector to release the connection.
Repeat for disconnecting the air compressor from the air hose.
PREPARATION AND ADJUSTMENTS
LUBRICATING THE TOOL (Fig. 1)
This tool requires lubrication before each use (especially the first use). Proper lubrication is the owner’s responsibil-
ity. Failure to lubricate the tool properly will dramatically shorten the life of the tool and void the warranty.

Oil

NOTE: The in-line oiler is a convenient way to provide oil to the tool.
If an in-line oiler is installed, manual lubrication through the air inlet is
not required.
1. Always make sure the tool is disconnected from the air supply before
adding lubricant.
2. Turn the tool so the air inlet is facing up. Open the protective cap.
Place 3 to 4 drops of air tool lubrication oil into the air inlet (Fig. 1).
NOTE: Excessive lubrication may damage the work surface.
3. Close the protective cap. Wipe off any excess oil from the inlet.
