BEFORE USE
1. Insert battery into the tool (See Fig. 4)
Do not operate the push lever or trigger while
installing the battery.
Make sure the battery indicator light is flashing GREEN
(See
Fig. 5
).
If the battery indicator light is flashing RED, the battery
doesn’t have enough power and it needs to be
charged.
BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHT
–
Flashing GREEN: Enough power remaining (The
light turns steady during
operation).
–
Flashing RED: Insufficient power remaining (The
light turns steady during operation).
–
OFF: The battery is extremely empty. Charge the
battery.
Power saving mode
If the tool has not been used for about an one hour
with the battery still installed, Power saving mode
turns on to minimize unnecessary consumption of
battery power. Power saving mode is also activated
when the battery power is extremely low or there’s
an abnormality in the machine so please pay attention
to the battery indicator light after deactivating Power
saving mode (by removing the battery and reinstall
it).
2. Insert fuel cell into the tool
(1) Pulling the latch and open the cell cover (See
Fig. 6
).
(2) Insert the fuel cell into the tool (See
Fig. 7
).
(3) Insert the stem of fuel cell into the hole of adaptor
(See
Fig. 8
).
(4) Close the cell cover.
3. Load nails
(1) Insert nail strip into rear of magazine (See
Fig. 9
).
(2) Slide the nail strip forward in the magazine (See

HOW TO USE THE NAILER
CAUTION
䡬
Never use the top cover or housing of this device as a
hammer.
䡬
Take precautions to ensure the safety of persons in
the vicinity during operation.
䡬
Squeeze the trigger when drive a nail, otherwise the
piston can not return correctly.
䡬
Make sure the nailing depth when the temperature is
above 40°C or below 0°C.
䡬
Hold the Nailer at right angles to the workpiece,
otherwise nails may ricochet and cause injury.
1. Nailing procedures
This power tool is equipped with a FULL SEQUENTIAL
ACTUATION MECHANISM.
(1) Intermittent nailing
Hold the Nailer at right angles to the workpiece and
depress the nail outlet onto the desired point; then pull
the trigger to drive a nail in a single shot (See
Fig. 15
).
After nailing once, nailing will not be possible again
until the trigger is released and pressed again.
(2) Push lever
When depressing the nail outlet, be sure to fully lift
the push lever (See
Fig. 15
) to release the safety lock.
Thus, nails cannot be driven without releasing the
safety lock even though the trigger is pulled.
The machine employs a preventive mechanism for
unloaded operation.
The machine enters a state where the push lever
cannot be pushed up. This takes place when the
magazine is not loaded with nails or when the
remaining number of nails becomes less than 3.
CAUTION
䡬
Do not drive a nail on another nail.
䡬
Use caution not to throw the push lever tip onto
workpiece when the push lever cannot be pushed up.
NOTE
䡬
Under low temperature conditions, the tool
sometimes does not operate correctly. Always operate
the tool at the appropriate ambient temperature.
2. Clearing a jam
WARNING
䡬
Handle with care to avoid burning yourself, since the
nails and nose may become very hot.
If nails are jammed in firing head, remove it, and adjust
the nailing in the following order.
1
Remove the fuel cell and the battery from the
Nailer. (See
Fig. 16
)
