Set-Up
lubrICatIoN
This nailer requires lubrication before
using the nailer for the first time and
before each use. If an inline oiler is used,
manual lubrication through the air inlet is
NOT
required on a daily basis.
The work surface
can become damaged
by excessive lubrication. Proper lubrication is
the owner’s responsibility. Failure to lubricate
the nailer properly will dramatically shorten
the life of the nailer and void your warranty.
1. Disconnect the air supply from nailer.
2. Turn the nailer so the air inlet is facing
up. Place 4-5 drops of 30 W non-
detergent oil into air inlet (
see Figure
12
). Do
NOT
use detergent oils, oil
additives, or air tool oils which contain
solvents. This will damage the nailer’s
internal components.
