OPERATION

DRY-FIRE LOCKOUT

When the magazine is almost empty of staples, the dry-fire

lockout feature will not allow continued operation.

To resume operation, reload the tool with staples.

SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE

The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size

of the staple and the workpiece material.

Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test staple into

the same type of workpiece material used for the actual

job.

Drive a test staple with the air pressure set at 90-95 psi.

Raise or lower the air pressure to find the lowest setting that

will perform the job with consistent results.

It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with air

pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are needed,

use the drive depth adjustment on the tool.

DRIVE DEPTH ADJUSTMENT

See Figure 8.

The driving depth of the staple may be adjusted. It is advis-

able to test the depth on a scrap workpiece to determine

the required depth for the application.

To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure and

drive a test staple. To achieve the desired depth, use the

drive depth adjustment on the tool.

n Disconnect the tool from the air supply.

n Turn the depth selector left or right to change the driving

depth.

n Reconnect the tool to the air supply.

n Drive a test staple after each adjustment until the desired

depth is set.

REMOVING STAPLES FROM THE TOOL

See Figure 9.

n Disconnect the tool from the air supply.

WARNING:

Disconnect the tool from the air supply before

removing staples. Failure to do so could result in

serious personal injury.

n While holding the tool upside down, depress the latch

located at the rear of the magazine and slide the magazine

open.

n Rotate the tool to the normal operating position, allowing

the staple strip to drop out of the magazine.
