LINE
Refer to Figure

DANGER:
Do not use oxygen,
carbon
dioxide,
high-pressure
compressed
gas or bottled
gases
as the power
source
for this
tool. The tool wii] explode
and serious
personal
injury could
result.
•
The air tool operates
on compressed
air at pressures
from
60 to 100 PSI.
•
Never connect
the tool to air pressure
which
could
poten-
tially exceed
200 PSI. Use only clean,
dry, regulated
air
within
rated range as marked
on tool.
Air Delivery
Required:
1.865
SCFM
@ 90 PSi
(30 shots
per minute).
WARNING:
Keep
hands
and body away from discharge
area
of tool when
connecting
air supply. Always
disconnect
tool
from air supply
when servicing
or adjusting
tool and when
tool
is not in use.
•
Air operated
tools
require
clean,
dry, lubricated
com-
pressed
air to ensure
top performance,
low maintenance
and long
life.
•
Dirt and abrasive
materials
present
in all air lines will dam-
age tool O-rings,
valves
and cylinders.
•
Moisture
will reduce
tool performance
and life if not
removed
from compressed
air.
•
A filter-regulator-lubricator
system
is required
and should
be
located
as close to tool as possible.
A distance
of less than
15 feet is recommended.
•
Keep air filter clean. A dirty filter will reduce
the air pressure
to the tool causing
a reduction
in power
and efficiency.
•
The air supply
system
must be able to provide
air pressure
of 60 to 100 pounds
per square
inch at tool.
•
All hoses and pipes in the air supply
system
must be clean
and free of moisture
and foreign
particles.
Hoses
must be
rated for a maximum
working
pressure
of 150 PSi or 150%
of maximum
system
pressure,
whichever
is greater.
•
Do not mount
swivel
connector
in air supply
line.
•
The air pressure
should
be properly
regulated.
•
Different
workpiece
materials
and different
fastener
lengths
will require
different
operating
pressure.
•
Be sure
all connections
in air supply
system
are sealed
to
prevent
air loss.
•
Never connect
a female
quick-disconnect
coupling
to the
tool side of air line connection.
A male, free-flow
coupling
should
be connected
to the tool side of air line connection
(see Figure
1).
WARNING:
The female
coupling
provides
a seal preventing
loss of compressed
air from compressor
tank when
discon-
nected
from male
coupling.
If connected
to tool side of air
supply,
the female
coupling
could seal a compressed
air
charge
in the tool which
could discharge
if the tool trigger
is
actuated.

LOADING
Refer to Figures
2, 3 & 4 (page 4).
WARNING:
Disconnect
tool from air supply.
Do not load tool
until you are ready
to use it. Do not pull trigger
or depress
contact
trip while loading
tool. Always
load with
nose of tool
pointing
away from you and others.
Always
wear safety
gog-
gles that comply
with United
States ANSI
Z87.1.
NOTE:
For best results,
use Sears
fasteners
only.
