The air tool is equipped with a trigger safety
lock.
- Before starting work, always check the safety and
trigger devices for perfect operation and ensure
that screws and nuts are firmly seated.
- The tool must not be manipulated, subject to
emergency repair or used in a non-specified
manner.
- Never disassemble or block parts such as the
trigger device of the stapler gun.
- Avoid all kinds of weakening or damage to the

6. Operation
6.1 Before using the tool for the first time
Insert plug-in nipple (12).
6.2 Connect to compressed air line
Empty the magazine (15) to prevent fasteners
from being ejected when connecting. (If, as a
result of repair, maintenance work or transport, inte-
rior parts of the stapler gun are not in initial position).
Only connect to compressed air lines after you
have ensured that it is not possible to exceed
the permissible operating pressure by more than
10% (e.g. using pressure reducers).
Only use quick-action couplings. Make the
connection such that the unlockable plug-in
nipple is fitted on the tool so that there is no more
compressed air in the tool after disconnection.
To benefit from the air tool's full performance,
always use compressed air hoses with an inner
diameter of at least 9 mm. Tool performance can be
significantly impaired if the inner diameter is too
small.
Caution. The compressed air line must not
contain any water condensation.
Caution. To preserve and extend the service
life of this tool, you must ensure that it is regu-
larly maintained with the pneumatic oil lubricator.
You can do this as follows:
– Use oiled compressed air by fitting an oil-fog lu- bricator.
– Without an oil-fog lubricator: manually apply oil
every day via the compressed air connection.
Use approx. 3-5 drops of pneumatic oil lubricator
for each 15 minutes of continuous operation.
If the tool has not been in use for several days, you
should manually apply about 5 drops of pneumatic
oil lubricator into the compressed air connection.

with empty magazine.
1. Turn the exhaust air aperture (6) (depending on
features) into the desired position.

actuation or contact actuation. To do this, press
in switch (8) from the right side and turn on the
left side. (For explanation, see Section 11.)
3. For sensitive workpiece surfaces, fit the protec-
tive cap (1).
4. Connect the air tool to the compressed air sup-
ply (see Section 6.2).
5. Fill magazine (15) (see Section 6.3).
6. Set the air pressure initially to the smallest val-
ue for the recommended operating pressure.
