The amount of air pressure required depends on the
size of the fasteners and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test nail
into the same type of workpiece material used for the
actual job.
Drive a test fastener 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.
