coupling. The pressure must be removed from the
tool when the coupling joint is disconnected.
• When using the tool do not exceed the maximum
operating pressure P
• The tool must not be connected to a compressor
which potentially exceeds 175 psi or 12 bar.
• Children shall not play with the tool. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by children.
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always
check for damaged or loose hoses or fittings.
• Optimum air supply is achieved using an air hose
with a diameter of 3/8" or 10 mm. If the air hose is too
long, this may cause lack of pressure and air supply.
• Never carry or drag the tool by its hose.
• Maintain the tool with care. If damaged, have it re-
paired before use. Please refer to the maintenance
instructions for detailed information on the proper
maintenance of the tool.
• Please keep the tool in clean condition, wipe off
grease and/or oil after work. Do not use any solvent
based cleaner to clean the tool. It is possible that
the solvent will deteriorate the rubber and/or plastic
components on the tool. Greasy handle and tool
body can cause accidental drop of the tool and
injury to nearby person.
• Have your tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only parts that are supplied or recommended
by Kyocera Unimerco Fastening. This will ensure
that the safety of the tool is maintained.
• The tool should only be powered by compressed
air at the lowest pressure required for the work pro-
gress to reduce noise and vibration, and minimize
wear.
• Use only lubricants recommended by Kyocera Uni-
merco Fastening / your local TJEP dealer.
• Only use compressed air. Using oxygen or combus-
tile gases for operation the tool creates a fire and
explosion hazard.

Foreseeable hazards

• Information to conduct a risk assessment of these
hazards and implementation of appropriate controls
is essential.
• During operation, debris from workpiece and fasten-
er/collation system may be discharged.
• When using the tool for long periods, the operator
may experience discomfort in arms, shoulders,
neck, or other parts of the body.
• Exposure to vibration can cause disabling damage
to the nerves and blood supply of the hands and
arms.
• If the operator experiences symptoms such as
persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing,
aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or
stiffness, do not ignore these warning signs. The
operator shall consult a qualified health professional
regarding overall activities.
• While using the tool, the operator shall adopt a suit-
able but ergonomic posture. Maintain secure footing
and avoid awkward or off-balanced postures.

max
• Hold the tool with a light, but safe, grip because the
risk from vibration is generally greater when the grip
force is higher.
• Residual risks relating to repetitive work hazards
such as duration of use in respect to working posi-
tions and forces may exist. It is advised to consult
EN 1005-3 and EN 1005-4 for such information.
• Slips, trips and falls are major causes of workplace
injury. Be aware of slippery surfaces when operat-
ing the tool.
• Proceed with additional care in unfamiliar surround-
ings. Hidden hazards may exist, such as electricity
or other utility lines.
• If the tool is used in an area where there is static
dust, it may spread the dust and cause a hazard.
If possible turn the exhaust (E) away from these
areas.
• Where dust hazards are created, the priority shall
be to control them at the point of emission.

Operation instructions

Connecting the compressor

• Connect the coupling on the air hose to the tool air
plug (H)

Load and unload the fastener

• Connect the compressor before you load the fasten-

is connected, the fasteners may be shoot out acci-
dentally. Point the nozzle away from any personnel
and keep your finger away from the trigger when
loading the fastener.
• Press down the magazine lock (D), swing the maga-
zine door (C) open and open the magazine (I).
• The adjustable magazine bottom can be adjusted by:
∙ lifting the bottom plate/insert to a suitable posi-
tion according to the nail length.
∙ lifting and twisting the bottom plate/insert to a
suitable position according to the nail length.
∙ removing or insert the magazine insert.
• Place the coil of nails in the magazine (I). Uncoil
enough nails to reach the feed pawl (C). Place the
first nail into the driver channel.
• Close the magazine (I) and the magazine lock (D).
Be sure that the lock is secured.

Depth of drive adjustment

• The tool can be equipped with a depth of drive ad-
justment (A). Test the depth of drive on scrap piece
before you start your work.
• Turn the knob (A) (Fig. B) or use hex key to adjust
the depth of drive.
• Repeat above procedure until you find your desired
depth of drive setting (Fig. A).

Operating the tool

• The tool can equipped with one of the below men-
tioned triggers (F):
