2. If a fastener is not driven deeply enough, driving
power must be increased. Adjust the power regula-
tion wheel to the next higher setting. If a fastener is
driven too deeply, check to ensure that a supporting
member (e.g. a beam) is present at this point. Do not
drive fasteners into unsupported sheet metal. Check
to ensure that the metal sheets lie snugly against
the supporting structure or, respectively, that any
gaps beneath the sheets are kept to an absolute
minimum.
3. Drive a fastener.
4. Use the test gauge to check nail stand-off.
5. If the fastener is still not driven deeply enough or,
respectively, is driven too deeply, steps 2 to 4 must
be repeated until the correct depth is achieved. If
necessary, use a cartridge with a higher or lower
power rating.
