Never point tool at yourself or others in work
area. Serious injury or death may occur if the tool
is activated. (Fig. 3)
Never use oxygen or other bottled gasses.
Explosion will occur. Never use combustible
gases or any other reactive gas as a power
source for this tool: explosion and serious
personal injury will result. (Fig. 4)
Wear ear protection to safe-guard against
possible hearing loss. Ear protection equipment
must conform to ANSI S3.19 requirements. (Fig. 5)
Use clean, dry, regulated, com-pressed air at
70 to 120 PSI, (4.8 to 8.3 BAR). (Fig. 6)
Do not connect tool to pressure which
potentially exceeds 200 PSI (13.7 BAR).
All air line components (hoses, connectors,
filters, regulators, etc.) must be rated for a
maximum working pressure of at least 150 PSI
(10.3 BAR) or 150% of the maximum system
pressure, which ever is greater.
Connect tool to air supply hose with a coupling
that automatically removes all pressure from the
tool when the coupling is disconnected. (Fig. 7).
Disconnect tool from air supply hose before
doing tool maintenance, clearing a jammed
fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to another
location, or handing the tool to another person.
(Fig. 7)
Never use a tool that is leaking air, has missing
or damaged parts, or requires repair. Make sure
all screws and caps are securely tightened.

Do not use tool without safety warning label. If
label is missing, damaged or unreadable, contact
1-800-544-6986 for a replacement. (Fig. 9)
Only use parts, fasteners and accessories
approved by Black and Decker.
Connect tool to air supply before loading
fasteners, to prevent a fastener from being fired
during connection. The tool driving mechanism may
cycle when tool is connected to the air supply.
(Fig. 10)
Always assume the tool contains fasteners. No
horseplay. Respect the tool as a working
implement. (Fig. 11)
Operator and bystanders should wear hard hats
to safeguard against possible injuries. (Fig. 12)
Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety
depressed, to prevent unintentional firing of a
fastener. (Fig. 13
)

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times when using or handling the
tool.
Fire fasteners into work surface only: never
into materials too hard to penetrate. (Fig. 15)
Grip tool firmly to maintain control while
allowing tool to recoil away from work surface
as fastener is driven. In “Contact Actuation
Mode” if safety element is allowed to re-contact
work surface before trigger is released an
unwanted fastener will be fired.
Do not drive fasteners on top of other
fasteners, or with the tool at too steep an angle:
the fasteners can ricochet causing personal injury.
(Fig. 15)
Do not drive fasteners close to the edge of the
workpiece. The workpiece is likely to split
allowing the fastener to fly free or ricochet causing
personal injury. (Fig. 16)
FOR TOOLS USED IN CONTACT ACTUATION
MODE, Do not use on scaffoldings or ladders
or for tasks in which changing location involves
the use of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders, and the
like. Do not use for specific tasks such as closing
boxes or crates or fitting transportation safety
systems on vehicles and wagons. (Fig. 17)
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Make sure hose is free of obstructions or
snags. Entangled or snarled hoses can cause
loss of balance or footing.
Always keep fingers clear of nail track of
magazine to prevent injury from inadvertent
release of the pusher. (Fig. 18)
Refer to the Maintenance section for detailed
information on the proper maintenance of the
tool.
Always operate the tool in a clean, lighted
area. Be sure the work surface is clear of any
debris and be careful not to lose footing when
working in elevated environments such as
rooftops.
Do not use tool in the presence of flammable
dust, gases or fumes. The tool may produce a
spark that could ignite gases causing a fire.
Driving a nail into another nail may also cause a
spark. (Fig. 19)

Be aware of material thickness when
using the nailer. A protruding nail may
cause injury.
Be aware that when the tool is being
utilized at pressures on the high end of
its operating range, nails can be driven
completely through thin or very soft
work material. Make sure the pressure in
the compressor is set so that nails are set
into the material and not pushed
completely through. (Fig. 20)
Do not drive nails blindly into walls,
floors or other work areas. Fasteners
driven into live electrical wires, plumbing,
or other types of obstructions can result in
injury. (Fig. 21)
Stay alert, watch what you are doing
and use common sense when operating
a power tool. Do not use tool while tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol,
or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
WARNING: Use of this product will expose
you to chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects and
other reproductive harm. Avoid inhaling
vapors and dust, and wash hands after
using.

The FSNS100 Stapler is designed to install 18 ga. narrow crown staples of various
lengths from
3
/8" to 1" long. Narrow crown staples are loaded into the magazine from
the top.
POWER SOURCE
This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air at regulated pressures
between 70 and 120 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch)
(4.8 to 8.3 BAR)
. The preferred
system would include a filter, a pressure regulator, and an automatic oiler located as close
to the tool as possible, within 15 ft/4.6 m is ideal.
All compressed air contains moisture and other contaminates that are detrimental to
internal components of the tool. An air line filter will remove most of these contaminates
and significantly prolong the life of the tool. If an in-line oiler is not available: place five or
six drops of air tool oil into the tool’s air inlet on a daily basis.
The tool is equipped with a
1
/4" male “quick connector”. The tool must always be
connected to the air supply with a coupling such that all pressure is removed from the tool
when the coupling is disconnected.
PREPARING THE TOOL
Keep tool pointed in a safe direction when loading nails.
Never load nails with the contact trip or trigger activated.
1. After reading and understanding this entire manual, connect tool to
air supply. (Fig. 22)
2. Depress latch and slide magazine cover open. (Fig. 23)
3. Insert a strip of approved fasteners. (Fig. 24) Orient fasteners with points down
in the magazine.
4. Push magazine cover closed. (Fig. 25)
5. Observe the low fastener indicator (A) Fig. 26 and reload as needed.
6. Adjust directional exhaust deflector (A) Fig. 27, so that the exhaust air
or debris will be directed away from the operator. Grasp the deflector
and rotate it to the desired position for the current application.

USING THE TOOL
Complete all steps of PREPARING THE TOOL before using the tool.
This tool is shipped from the factory with a “single sequential actuation” trigger. To
fire, grip the tool firmly to maintain control, position nose of tool onto work
surface, push the tool firmly against work surface to depress safety (S) Fig. 28,
and squeeze trigger to fire a nail. Allow tool to recoil away from work surface as nail
is driven. This “single sequential actuation” method provides the most accurate
fastener placement.
Disconnect tool from air supply before performing
maintenance, clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to
another location, or handing the tool to another person.
Clean and inspect tool daily. Carefully check for proper operation of trigger and
safety mechanism. Do Not use the tool unless both the trigger and the safety
mechanism are functional, or if the tool is leaking air or needs any other repair.
The depth to which a nail is driven is controlled by the depth adjustment knob (A) Fig.
29. The depth of drive is factory adjusted to a nominal setting. Test fire a fastener and
check depth. If a change is desired, rotate the adjustment knob (A) Fig. 29. The
adjustment knob has detents every
1
/4 turn. Rotate the knob (A) Fig. 29 clockwise to
increase the depth of drive, rotate the knob counterclockwise to decrease the depth of
drive. Test fire another fastener and check depth. Repeat as necessary to achieve
desired results. The amount of air pressure required will vary depending on the size of
the fastener and the material being fastened. Experiment with the air pressure setting to
determine the lowest setting that will consistently perform the job at hand. Air pressure
in excess of that required can cause premature wear and/or damage to the tool.
