SAFETY IN STRUC TIONS
SAFETY FIRST
These safety instructions provide information necessary
for safe operation of Duo-Fast tools. DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO OPERATE THE TOOL UNTIL YOU READ AND
UN DER STAND ALL SAFETY PRE CAU TIONS AND
MANUAL INSTRUCTIONS.
WEAR EYE AND HEARING PROTECTION
Always wear hearing and eye protection devices, that
conform to ANZI Z87.1 requirements, when operating
or working in the vicinity of a tool. As an employer you
are responsible for enforcing the use of eye protection.
Wear hard hats in environments that require their use.
THE TOOL MUST BE USED ONLY FOR THE PUR-
POSE FOR WHICH IT WAS DESIGNED
Do not throw the tool on the fl oor, strike the housing in
any way or use the tool as a hammer to knock
material into place.
NEVER ENGAGE IN HORSEPLAY WITH THE TOOL
The tool is not a toy so do not use it like one. Never
engage in horseplay with the tool or point it at yourself
or any other person, even if you think it is not loaded.
NEVER ASSUME THE TOOL IS EMPTY
Check the magazine for fasteners that may be left in the
tool. Even if you think the tool is empty or dis con nect ed,
never point it at anyone or yourself. Unseen fasteners
could fi re from the tool.
NEVER CLAMP THE TRIGGER IN A LOCKED OR
OPERATING POSITION
The trigger of the tool must never be tampered with,
disabled or clamped in a locked or operating position
since this will cause the tool to drive a fastener any time
the work contacting element depressed.
DO NOT LOAD FASTENERS WITH THE AIR LINE
CONNECTED, OR WITH THE TOOL TRIGGER OR
WORK CONTACTING ELEMENT DE PRESSED
When loading fasteners into the tool be sure you discon-
nect the air line and that you do not depress the trigger
or work contacting element.
OPERATE THE TOOL ONLY ON A WORK PIECE
The tool should be operated only when it is in contact
with the workpiece. Even then you should be careful
when fastening thin material or working near the edges
and corners of the workpiece since the fasteners may
drive through or away from the workpiece.
DO NOT DISABLE OR REMOVE THE WORK CON-
TACT ING ELEMENT
This tool is equipped with a safety mechanism, called a
work contacting element, to help prevent accidental
fi ring. Never tamper with, disable or remove the
work contacting element. Do not use the tool unless
the work contacting element is working properly. The
tool could fi re unexpectedly.
DISCONNECT THE TOOL WHEN NOT IN USE
Always disconnect the tool from the air line when it
is not in use, when you leave the work area or when
moving the tool to a new location. The tool must
never be left un at tend ed because people who are
not familiar with the tool might handle it and injure
themselves or others.
CARRY THE TOOL ONLY BY THE HANDLE
Always carry the tool by the handle only. Never carry
the tool by the air hose or with the trigger depressed
since you could drive a fastener un in ten tion al ly and
injure yourself or someone else.
DO NOT WEAKEN THE TOOL HOUSING
The tool housing is a pressure vessel and should nev er
be weak ened by having your company’s name, area of
work or anything else stamped or engraved into its
surface.
DISCONNECT THE TOOL WHEN PERFORMING
REPAIRS AND CLEAR ING JAMS
Never attempt to clear a jam or repair a tool unless you
have dis con nect ed the tool from the air line and
removed all re main ing fasteners from the tool.
ALWAYS USE THE PROPER FITTING FOR THE
TOOL
Only MALE pneumatic type air connectors should be
fi tted to the tool, so that high pressure air in the tool is
vented to at mo sphere as soon as the air line is
disconnected.
NEVER install FEMALE quick disconnect couplings on
the tool. Fe male couplings will trap high pressure air in
the tool when the air line is disconnected, leaving the
tool charged and able to drive at least one fas ten er.
DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM REC OM MEND ED
AIR PRES SURE
Operate the tool only at the rec om mend ed air pres sure.
Do not ex ceed the max i mum air pressure marked on
the tool. Be sure the air pressure gauge is
properly and check it at least twice a day.
Never use any bot tled air or gases such as oxygen to
operate the tool since they could cause the tool to
explode.
INSPECT TOOL FOR PROPER OPERATION
Clean the tool at least daily and lubricate as required.
Never op er ate a dirty or mal func tion ing tool.
USE ONLY DUO-FAST® REC OM MEND ED PARTS AND
FAS TEN ERS
Use only parts and fas ten ers spe cifi cal ly designed and
rec om mend ed by Duo-Fast for use in the tool and
work to be done. Using un au tho rized parts and
fasteners or modifying the tool in any way creates
dangerous situations. Replace all missing warn ing
labels---refer to tool schematic for correct placement
and part num ber.

UNPACKING
When unpacking, check and make sure that all accessories are included. If anyone is
missing or broken, please contact your distributor. Refer to the following lists, 1 each:
Hammer
Nailer
CONNECTING THE TOOL WITH THE AIR SUPPLY
1. Determine if it is necessary to lubricate. If necessary, put 2 drops of oil
into the AIR PLUG-Key 46 (Figure 1).
If you are using an automatic in-line oiler, check and add oil if necessary.
2. Turn the air compressor on and adjust the regulator to a proper pressure
for shooting suitable fastener.
3. Connect the tool to the air supply.
LOADING THE FASTENERS
1. Load one (1) strip or up to 100 fasteners into the “T” slot in the rear
of the magazine (Figure 2A).
2. Slide the fasteners all the way forward (Figure 2B).
3. Pull the feeder shoe back behind the fasteners and allow it to slide
forward pushing the fasteners to the front of the magazine (Figure 2C).
OPERATING THE TOOL
Test the driving depth in a sample piece of wood before using.
If the fasteners are being driven too far or not far enough, adjust the regulator to provide
less air pressure or more air pressure.
1. Connect the tool to the air supply. Make sure the air pressure is in correct range
denoted in the section of Specifications.
2. Load fasteners as above the direction given in the section called Loading the Fasteners.
3. Hold the long arm and press the shoe to work surface and make
sure the fastener connection position. Strike the hammer face with a hammer to
drive the fastener out (Figure 3).
4. Lift the tool off the work piece.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
1. Frequent but not excessive, lubrication is required for the best performance. Oil added
through the air inlet will lubricate internal parts. An automatic air line oiler is recommended
but oil may be added manually before every operation or after about 1 hour of continuous
use. Only a few drops of oil at a time is necessary. Too much oil will collect inside the tool
and be blown out during the exhaust cycle.
ONLY USE PNEUMATIC TOOL OIL. Do not use detergent oil or additives because these
lubricants will cause accelerated wear to the seal in the tool.
2. Use a small amount of oil on all moving surfaces and pivots.
3. Dirt and water in the air supply are major causes of pneumatic tool wear. Use a filter/oiler
for better performance and longer life. The filter must have adequate flow capacity for the
specific application. Consult the manufacturer’s instructions for the proper maintenance of
your filter.
4. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Use nonflammable cleaning solutions.
(Caution such solutions may damage O-ring and other tool parts ) only if necessary.
DO NOT SOAK.
