Read and follow all safety rules and
operating instructions in this manual
and on warning label of tool before us-
ing this tool. Failure to follow warnings
could result in DEATH or SERIOUS
INJURY.
WARNING: Some dust created by
using power tools contains chemicals
known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm.
WORK AREA
Keep your work area clean
and well lit. Cluttered benches
and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such
as in the presence of flam-
mable liquids, gases, or dust.
Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust of fumes.
Keep bystanders, children and
visitors away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Eye protection which con-
forms to ANSI specifications
and provides protection
against flying particles both
from the FRONT and SIDE
should ALWAYS be worn by
the operator and others in
the work area when loading,
operating and servicing this
tool. Eye protection is required
to guard against flying fasteners
and debris, which could cause
severe eye injury.
Additional safety protection
will be required in some
environments. For examples,
the working area my include ex-
posure to noise level which can
lead to hearing damage. The
employer and user must ensure
that any necessary hearing
protection is provided and used
by the operator and others in the
work area. Some environments
will require the use of head
protection equipment. When
required, the employer and user
must ensure that head protection
conforming to ANSI Z89.1-1997
is used.
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.
Dress properly. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewelry. Contain
long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
Keep fingers away from trig-
ger when not driving fasteners
to avoid accidental firing.
Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.
Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the tool
in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Dust mask,
nonskid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection must be
used for appropriate conditions.
Do not use a ladder or unsta-
ble support. Stable footing on
a solid surface enables better
control of the tool in unexpected
situations.
Store idle tools out of reach of
children and other untrained
persons. Tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
OPERATION
Check operations of the
workpiece contact mechanism
frequently. Do not use the tool
if the workpiece contact mecha-
nism is not working correctly as
accidental driving of a fastener

may result. Do not interfere with
the proper operation of the work-
piece contact mechanism.
Use only the size and type
of fasteners designated in
the Specifications list in this
manual,
Keep the tool and its handle
dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Always use a
clean cloth when cleaning.
Never use brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, or
any strong solvents to clean
your tools. Following this rule
will reduce the risk of loss of
control and deterioration of the
enclosure plastic.
Do not use oxygen, combus-
tible gases or bottled gases
as a power source for this tool
as tool will explode, possible
causing injury or death.
Do not use with an air com-
pressor which can potentially
exceed 200 psi as tool may
burst, possibly causing injury.
Always disconnect air supply:
Before making adjustments
When servicing the tool
When clearing a jam
When tool is not in use
When moving to a different work
area, as accidental actuation
may occur, possibly causing
injury.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when clean-
ing plastic parts. Most plastics are
susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents and
may be damaged by their use. Use
a clean cloth to remove dirt, dust, oil,
grease, etc.
WARNING: Do not at any time
let brake fluids, gasoline, petro-
leum-based projects, penetrating
oils, etc., come in contact with plastic
parts. Chemicals can damage, weak-
en or destroy plastic.
LUBRICATION
Frequent, but not excessive, lubrica-
tion is required for best performance.
Lubricate tool with quality air tool oil.
If no air tine lubricator is used, place
a few drops of oil into open end of
tool nosepiece. Oil for pneumatic
fastening tools added through the
airline connection will lubricate the
internal parts. Do not use detergent
oil or additives as these lubricants will
cause accelerated wear to the seals
and bumpers in the tool, resulting in
poor tool performance and frequent
tool maintenance.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
For cold weather operation, near and
below freezing, the moisture in the
air line may freeze and prevent tool
operation. Use air tool lubricant as a
cold weather lubricant.
CAUTION: Do not store tools in a cold
weather environment to prevent frost
or ice formation on the tool operating
valves and mechanisms that could
cause tool failure.
NOTE: Some commercial air tine
drying liquids are harmful to "O" rings
and seals. Do not use these low tem-
perature air dryers without checking
compatibility.
AIR SUPPLY PRESSURE AND
VOLUME
Air volume is as important as air
pressure. The air volume supplied to
the too! may be inadequate because
of undersize fittings and hoses, or
from the effects of dirt and water in the
system. Restricted air flow will prevent
the toot from receiving an adequate
volume of air, even though the pres-
sure reading is high. The results will
be a slow operation or reduced driving
power. Before evaluating tool prob-
lems for these symptoms, trace the
air supply from the tool to the supply
source for restrictive connectors, low
points containing water and anything
else that would prevent fuji volume
flow of air to the tool.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
* Tool does * Inadequate air * Verify adequate air
nothing or supply supply
operates * Inadequate * Lubricate tool
sluggishly lubrication * Replace O-rings
* Worn, damaged O- and/or bumper
rings or bumper
* Tool jams * Incorrect fasteners * Verify that fasteners
frequently * Damaged fasteners are the correct size
* Replace fasteners
