IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ENB087-1 WARNING: WHEN USING THIS TOOL, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. • For personal safety and proper operation and maintenance of the tool, read this instruction manual before using the tool. • Always wear safety glasses and face shield to protect your eyes from dust or nail injury.
• Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose screws before operation. Tighten as required. • Make sure all safety systems are in working order before operation. The tool must not operate if only the trigger is pulled or if only the contact arm is pressed against the wood. It must work only when both actions are performed. Test for possible faulty operation with nails unloaded and the pusher in fully pulled position.

The graph shows the relation between nailing frequency, applicable pressure and compressor air output. Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of approximately 40 times per minute at a compression of 0.
004296 • 1 When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air fitting. This should be done before and after use. For proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced. 1. Pneumatic tool oil FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Nose adapter • 004297 CAUTION: Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hose before installing or removing the nose adapter.
004299 • 1 To adjust the depth of nailing, turn the adjuster so that the arrow above the adjuster will point to the number indicated on the adjuster. The depth of nailing is the deepest when the arrow points to the number 1. It will become shallower as the arrow points to higher number. The depth can be changed in approx. 1.0 mm increments per graduation. If nails cannot be driven deep enough even when the arrow points to the number 1, increase the air pressure.
004303 • Depress the nail stopper and remove the strip of nails from the magazine. 1 1. Nail stopper Connecting air hose 004304 1 • 2 Lock the trigger. Slip the air socket of the air hose onto the air fitting on the nailer. 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. 1. Air socket 2.
004307 • 1 For No. 1 method, set the change lever to the “Intermittent Nailing” position. For No. 2 method, set the change lever to the “Continuous Nailing” position. After using the change lever to change the nailing method, always make sure that the change lever is properly set to the position for the desired nailing method. 2 3 4 1. 2. 3. 4.

Nails 004310 • Handle nail strips and their box carefully. If the nail strips have been handled roughly, they may be out of shape or their connector breaks, causing poor nail feed. 004311 • Avoid storing nails in a very humid or hot place or place exposed to direct sunlight. MAINTENANCE • CAUTION: Always disconnect the hose before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. Maintenance of nailer 10 004312 • Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose screws before operation.
004314 • Make sure that the trigger is locked when the change lever is set to the LOCK position. 004315 • When the tool is not to be used for an extended period of time, lubricate the tool using pneumatic tool oil and store the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and/or humid or hot environment. 1 2 1. Change lever 2. Trigger lock 004316 Maintenance of compressor, air set and air hose 004317 • After operation, always drain the compressor tank and the air filter.
004319 • 1 Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic oil in the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly. 2 1. Oiler 2. Pneumatic oil 004320 12 • Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over 140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which it may become dangerously caught on during operation.
