Recommended air supply
• This tool should be connected to a clean air supply with an in-line oiler and water separator
• DO NOT allow supply pressure to exceed the maximum stated in the specification
• Always select the lowest supply pressure suitable for the task. This will reduce sound and
vibration for the operator. It will also decrease wear of the tool and the chance of tool failure
• Always use an air filter with the machine. Without an air filter, air is likely to have a higher water
content that will rapidly corrode the internal working parts of this machine and will shorten its
working life significantly. Water collects in the compressor tank and will cause serious corrosion.
The tank must be drained on a daily basis to prevent water build-up in the air supply
• Ensure all parts of the system (hoses, couplers, etc.) are correctly rated for the air pressure to
be used
• If an automatic oiler (as per diagram below) is not used, pour two drops of air tool oil into the air
inlet of the quick connector before each use
CAUTION:
Only use oil formulated for air or pneumatic tools. Never substitute other oils which may
damage this tool and the compressor or are not suitable for contact with the operator of the tool. DO
NOT use 2-stroke or automotive oil.

Checking the safety catch
WARNING:
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment or maintenance
is carried out.
• Ensure that there are no fasteners in the magazine
• The Safety Catch (6) should move in and out with no obstruction
• Test the safety catch is operating correctly as follows:
1. Connect the tool to the air supply
2. Push the Safety Catch (6) against a piece of wood without pulling the Trigger (1). The tool should
not fire. If the tool fires, it must be repaired before further use
3. Hold the tool away from the piece of wood. The Safety Catch (6) should return to the original
position
4. Pull the Trigger (1). The tool should not fire. If the tool fires, it must be repaired before any
further use
5. Push the Safety Catch (6) against the piece of wood, but this time pull the Trigger (1). The tool
should fire. This indicates normal operation
Loading the magazine
1. Open the Magazine Latch (4) and pull open the Magazine Cover (5)
2. Insert fasteners into the magazine, ensuring the point of the fastener is facing forward (away
from the handle of the tool)
3. Close the Magazine Cover (5) until the Magazine Latch (4) is fully secured
IMPORTANT.
Always test the fastener will penetrate by the correct amount. Using a similar material
fire a test fastener and, if necessary, use the regulator to adjust the air pressure to the desired level.
Reducing the pressure will reduce the depth that the fastener penetrates.
Operation
WARNING:
Ensure your compressed air supply operates within the pressure range stated in
“Specifications”.
Firing trigger
• To operate the nailer, press the Safety Catch (6) against the material. Holding the nailer firmly by
its handle, squeeze the Trigger (1) to fire the nail into the material
WARNING:
Rapidly pressing the firing trigger could cause internal damage and may invalidate
the guarantee.
Exhaust
• Rotate the Air Exhaust (9) to direct the exhaust air away from the operator
Nail depth adjustment
IMPORTANT:
Always test the fastener will penetrate by the correct amount.
1. Fire a test nail into a piece of scrap material and examine the penetration depth of the nail
2. If necessary, adjust the air supply pressure to change the nail penetration depth: reducing the air
supply pressure will reduce the depth that the nail penetrates.
Clearing jams
WARNING:
Always disconnect the tool from the air supply before any adjustment or maintenance
is carried out.
Fastener jammed in magazine
1. Open Magazine Latch (4) and open the Magazine Cover (5)
2. Remove the obstruction using pliers
3. Reload magazine and close securely
Fastener jammed in plate area
1. Undo the retaining Screws (8) and then remove nose cover. The Safety Catch (6) can then be
removed. Undo the screws and remove the main plate
2. Remove the obstruction using pliers
3. Re-assemble the nose plates and check the operation of the Safety Catch (6) before using the tool
Maintenance
WARNING:
Always disconnect the machine from the air supply before carrying out any maintenance
or cleaning.
Note:
Two hex keys are provided with this air nailer that are suitable for partial disassembly of this
unit. These may be useful for cleaning, unjamming and replacing parts. Such disassembly is not
covered by this manual.
WARNING:
Never use third party spares with this product. Only use spares supplied by Silverline or
an authorised Silverline stockist or repair centre.
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and
could reduce its service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
• After each use, pour approximately 1.5ml of lubricating oil into the Air Inlet (2)
• If the tool stops working or only works intermittently, pour approximately 1.5ml of lubricating oil
into the Air Inlet (2), and connect to air supply. Operate the tool in short bursts. If this does not
free the tool mechanism, have the tool serviced at an authorised Silverline service centre
