3. Remove finger from the trigger and press the safety against the workpiece.
● THE TOOL MUST NOT OPERATE.
4. Separate the safety from the wood. Next, point the tool downward, pull the trigger and then wait in that position for 5 seconds or longer.
●THE TOOL MUST NOT OPERATE.
5.a Without touching the trigger, depress the safety against the workpiece. Pull the trigger.
●THE TOOL MUST OPERATE
5.b Hold the trigger back while separating the safety from the wood.
The tool will remain in operated status(the driver blade will remain at the bottom).
5.c Remove the finger from the trigger.
Tool operation will end (the driver blade will return to the top).
6. If no abnormal operation is observed, you may load staples in the tool. Drive staples into the workpiece of the same type to be used
in the actual application.
●THE TOOL MUST OPERATE PROPERLY
5.4. Staple Loading
WARNING! Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others when loading fasteners. Failure to do so could result in
possible serious personal injury.
Never load fasteners with the workpiece contact or trigger activated. Doing so could result in possible serious personal injury.
WARNING!
When loading the tool's magazine, check that the nail tips contact the wear rail and slide smoothly against the surface of the
magazine. If the nails are not loaded properly, the tool will misfire and nails can be deflected, causing the tool to react in an unexpected
manner, and damage the tool.
5.4.1. Disconnect air supply.
5.4.2. Press magazine latch and pull magazine to open position, see fig.3.
5.4.3. See tool specifications to determine appropriate staple sizes. Insert appropriate staple strips, with the staple tips contacting the wear rail,
see fig.6.

This tool is equipped with a safety and does not operate unless the safety is depressed. The method of operation with this tool is a contact
actuation mechanism.
WARNING! To avoid double firing due to recoil:
DO NOT press the tool against the wood with excessive force.
Separate the tool from the wood as it recoils after stapling.
5.6.1. Pull the trigger with the tool off the workpiece.
5.6.2. Depress the safety against the workpiece to drive a staple.
5.6.3. Move the tool along the workpiece with a bouncing motion. Each depression of the safety will drive a staple. As soon as the required
number of staples has been driven, remove finger from the trigger.
Note:
Always handle staples and their packaging carefully. If staples are dropped they may get damaged which will cause misfeeds and
jamming.
