Contact actuation
Pull the trigger first and then place the contact element
against the workpiece.
(Fig. 18)
Anti dry fire mechanism
This tool is equipped with an anti dry fire mechanism.
When there are a few nails remaining in the magazine,
the contact arm will be locked in the undepressed position
to prevent the tool from being activated. Load more nails
to resume operation.
Jammed nailer (Fig. 19)
CAUTION:
• Always lock the trigger, disconnect the hose and
remove the nails from the magazine before clearing a
jam.
When the nailer becomes jammed, do as follows:
Insert a small rod or the like into the ejection port and tap
it with a hammer to retract the driver.
Use pliers to bend the jammed nail so that the nail head
comes out of the slot in the driver guide. Then remove the
jammed nail.
(Fig. 20)
Nails (Fig. 21)
Handle nail coils and their box carefully. If the nail coils
have been handled roughly, they may be out of shape or
their connector breaks, causing poor nail feed.
Avoid storing nails in a very humid or hot place or place
exposed to direct sunlight.
(Fig. 22)
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always disconnect the air hose from the tool before
attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Maintenance of the nailer
Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose
screws before operation. Tighten as required.
(Fig. 23)
With tool disconnected, make daily inspection to assure
free movement of the contact element and trigger. Do not
use tool if the contact element or trigger sticks or binds.
(Fig. 24)
Make sure that the trigger is locked when the change
lever is set to the
position.
(Fig. 25)
When the tool is not to be used for an extended period of
time, lubricate the tool using pneumatic tool oil and store
the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to a direct sunlight
and/or humid or hot environment.
(Fig. 26 & 27)
Maintenance of the compressor, air set
and air hose (Fig. 28 & 29)
After operation, always drain the compressor tank and the
air filter. If moisture is allowed to enter the tool, It may
result in poor performance and possible tool failure.
Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic oil in
the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient
lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly.
(Fig. 30)
Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over
140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or
alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which it
may become dangerously caught on during operation.
Hoses must also be directed away from sharp edges and
areas which may lead to damage or abrasion to the hose.
(Fig. 31)
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance and adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always
using Makita replacement parts.
