Generally speaking, the tool service life will be longer
when the tool is used with lower air pressure and the
adjuster set to deeper depth of nail driving.
Hook
CAUTION:
Always release the trigger and
disconnect the hose before changing the hook
position.
CAUTION:
Never hook the tool at high
location or on potentially unstable surface.
CAUTION:
Do not hang the hook from the
waist belt. If the nailer accidentally drops, it may
result in misfiring and personal injuries.

The hook is convenient for hanging the tool temporarily.
To change the hook position, remove the hex socket
bolt and switch the hook direction. The hook has two
holes. Choose the hole depending on your preferable
hook width.

The shingle guide is designed for consistent shingle
exposure.
Place shingle in desired position. Turn the lever to
release the adjusting plate. Set the nailer so that the
contact element will depress both the exposed shingle
and previous row of the shingle. Slide the adjusting
plate up against the bottom of the exposed shingle and
return the lever to lock the adjusting plate.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Before carrying out any work on
the tool, always release the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the tool.
CAUTION:
Load the same type, size and
uniform length of nails when loading nails in the
magazine.
Loading nailer
NOTICE:
Select nails suitable for your work.
NOTICE:
Set the coil support plate according to
the nail size to be used. If the tool is operated with
the coil support plate set to the wrong step, poor nail
feed or malfunction of the tool may result.
1. Depress the latch lever and open the
magazine cap.

3. Place the nail coil over the coil support
plate. Uncoil enough nails to reach the feed claw. Place
the first nail in the driver channel and the second nail in
the feed claw. Place other uncoiled nails on feeder

► Fig.13:
1. Air fitting 2. Air socket
Slip the air socket of the air hose onto the air fitting on
the tool. Be sure that the air socket locks firmly into
position when installed onto the air fitting. A hose
coupling must be installed on or near the tool in such a
way that the pressure reservoir will discharge at the time
the air supply coupling is disconnected.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Make sure all safety systems are in
working order before operation.
Checking proper action before
operation
Before operation, always check following points.
—
Make sure that the tool does not operate only by
connecting the air hose.
—
Make sure that the tool does not operate only by
pulling the trigger.
—
Make sure that the tool does not operate only by
placing the contact element against the workpiece
without pulling the trigger.
—
In single sequential actuation mode, make sure
that the tool does not operate when pulling the
trigger first and then placing the contact element
against the workpiece.
Selecting the operation mode
CAUTION:
Always make sure that the
actuation mode selector is properly set to the
position for the desired nailing mode before
nailing.
