sure the tool’s magazine is empty at the beginning of
each work session, before connecting to an air supply.
1. Connect the tool to the air supply.
2. Release the magazine lock and slide open the
magazine.
3. With the safety yoke of the tool pointed away from you,
feed a strip of fasteners into the magazine. Be sure the
fasteners are pointed downward.
– To fill the tool with 18 gauge nails, place the nails
in the left channel with the nail tips pointing down.
Ensure that the nail tips rest on the bottom of the
channel and the nail heads are seated in the slot.
– To fill the tool with 16 gauge nails, place the nails
in the right channel with the nail tips pointing down.
Ensure that the nail heads rest on the top of the
channel.
– To fill the tool with crown staples, insert the shanks
of a strip of staples into both channels of the
magazine. Ensure that the crowns rest on the top
of the magazine.
NOTE:
Ensure the 18 gauge nails and 16 gauge nails
are placed into the correct channel. Failure to do so
could cause jamming of the nails.
WARNING
Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others
when loading fasteners. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious personal injury.
4. Close the magazine.
WARNING
