GB
Consult the manufacturer's instructions for
the correct maintenance of the oil and water
separator. A contaminated and blocked filter
will cause a reduction in the pressure, which will
negatively influence the performance of the
air nailer.

4. LOADING THE AIR NAILER

When in use, always wear eye
protection that meets the ANSI

both in front and at the sides from flying
objects when loading, operating and
maintaining the air nailer. Flying
fasteners and splinters can cause
severe injury.
Remark: Glasses without side shield and face
protector do not offer sufficient protection.
