Thegraph shows the relation between nailing frequency,applicable pressure and compressor air output.Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate ofapproximately 50 times per minute at acompression of 0.59 Mpa (5.9 bar), a compressorwith an air output over 80 liters/ minute is required.Pressure regulators must be used to limit airpressure to the rated pressure of the tool where airsupply pressure exceeds the tool's rated pressure.Failure to do so may result in serious injury to tooloperator or persons in the vicinity.Selecting air hoseFig.1• Use an air hose as large and as short as possible toassure continuous, efficient nailing operation. Withan air pressure of 0.49 Mpa (4.9 bar), an air hosewith an internal diameter of over 6.5 mm and alength of less than 20 m (6.6 ft.) is recommendedwhen the interval between each nailing is 0.5seconds. Air supply hoses shall have a minimumworking pressure rating of 1.03 Mpa (10.3 bar) or150 percent of the maximum pressure produced inthe system whichever is higher.CAUTION:• Low air output of the compressor, or a long orsmaller diameter air hose in relation to the nailingfrequency may cause a decrease in the drivingcapability of the tool.Lubrication• To insure maximum performance, install an air set(oiler, regulator, air filter) as close as possible to thetool. Adjust the oiler so that one drop of oil will beprovided for every 30 nails.Fig.2• When an air set is not used, oil the tool withpneumatic tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three)drops into the air fitting. This should be done beforeand after use. For proper lubrication, the tool mustbe fired a couple of times after pneumatic tool oil isintroduced.Fig.3FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONAdjusting depth of nailingCAUTION:• Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hosebefore adjusting the depth of nailing.• To adjust the depth of nailing, turn the adjuster sothat the arrow above the adjuster will point to thenumber indicated on the adjuster. The depth ofnailing is the deepest when the arrow points to thenumber 1. It will become shallower as the arrowpoints to higher number. The depth can be changedin approx. 1.0 mm increments per graduation. Ifnails cannot be driven deep enough even when thearrow points to the number 1, increase the airpressure. If nails are driven too deep even when thearrow points to the number 9, decrease the airpressure. Generally speaking, the tool service lifewill be longer when the tool is used with lower airpressure and the adjuster set to a lower number.Fig.4ASSEMBLYLoading nailerCAUTION:• Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hosebefore loading the nailer.• Select nails suitable for your work. Depress thelatch lever and open the door and magazine cap.Fig.5• Lift and turn the coil support plate to set it to thecorrect step. When loading 57 or 65 mm long nails,use the bottom step. When loading 45 or 50 mmlong nails, use the middle step. When loading 32 or38 mm long nails, use the top step. If the tool is
