Mode Selection
WARNING:
Always wear proper eye [ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA
Z94.3)] and hearing protection [ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)] when operating
this tool.
WARNING:
Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving
fasteners to avoid accidental firing.
NEVER
carry tool with finger on
trigger. In contact mode tool will fire a fastener if safety is bumped
while trigger is depressed.
Sequential Trip:
Sequential trip requires the operator to hold the
trigger against the work surface before pulling the trigger. This makes
accurate fastener placement easier. The sequential trip allows exact
fastener placement without the possibility of driving a second fastener
on recoil, as described under
Contact Trip
. The sequential trip tool
has a positive safety advantage because it will not accidentally drive
a second fastener if the tool is contacted against the work or anything
else while the operator is holding the trigger pulled.
Contract Trip:
The common operating procedure on contact trip
tools is for the operator to contact the work surface to actuate
the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus driving
a fastener each time the work is contacted. This will allow rapid
fastener placement on many jobs. All pneumatic tools are subject to
recoil when driving fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip,
and if unintentionally allowed to recontact the work surface with the
trigger still actuated (finger still holding the trigger pulled) an unwanted
second fastener will be driven.
TO CHANGE OPERATING MODES (FIG. 2, 3)
WARNING:
Disconnect air line from tool and remove fasteners
from magazine before making adjustments or personal injury may
result.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP ACTION
Use sequential action for intermittent nailing where very careful and
accurate placement is desired.
To operate the tool in sequential action
FIG. 2
mode:
1.
Rotate the trigger mode selector (B)
clockwise to the sequential action position
, as shown in Figure 2.
2. Fully depress nosepiece against the work
surface.
3. Pull trigger.
4. Release trigger.
5. Lift nosepiece off work surface.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for next application.
WARNING:
The contact trip needs to be depressed followed by a
trigger pull for each fastener followed by a release of both the contact
trip and trigger after each fastener.
CONTACT TRIP ACTION
Bump/contact action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary
surfaces.
When using bump action, two methods are available:
place
actuation
and
bump actuation
.
Rotate the trigger mode selector (B)
FIG. 3
counterclockwise to the contact action position
, as shown in Figure 3.
To operate the tool using the PLACE
ACTUATION method:
WARNING:
A fastener will fire each time the
trigger is depressed as long as the contact trip remains depressed.
1. Depress the contact trip against the work surface.
