the magazine and push the whole part of pin nails toward

the firing opening.

Nose adapter

CAUTION:

Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hose before

loading the nailer. (Fig. 15)

To prevent the surface of workpiece from being scratched

or damaged, use the nose adapter. Before attaching the

nose adapter, remove two screws with the hex wrench

that are securing the contact top cover.

Attach the nose adapter so that its protrusion fit into the

groove in the contact element. (Fig. 16)

Store the nose adapter in place when not in use. The

place for storage is at the back of the slide door.

Open the slide door slightly and set the nose adapter onto

the holder with the slide door slightly opened, and then

close the slide door. Total two nose adapters can be

stored. (Fig. 17)

To take the nose adapter out of the holder easily, push it

out using a hex wrench from back of the slide door.

Connecting air hose

CAUTION:

• When connecting air hose, never place a finger on the

trigger.

Lock the trigger and slip the air socket of the air hose onto

the air fitting on the nailer. Be sure that the air socket

locks firmly into position when installed onto the air fitting.

A hose coupling must be installed on or near the tool in

such a way that the pressure reservoir will discharge at

the time the air supply coupling is disconnected.

OPERATION

CAUTION:

• Always be sure to first place the contact element

against the workpiece before pulling the trigger.

(Fig. 18)

To drive a nail, set the lock lever in the “FREE ”

position.

Place the contact element against the workpiece and

then pull the trigger. (Fig. 19)

Anti dry fire mechanism

This tool is equipped with an anti dry fire mechanism.

When facing a triggers undepressed position to prevent

the tool from being activated, load more nails to resume

operation.

Jammed nailer

CAUTION:

• Always lock the trigger, disconnect the hose and

remove the nails from the magazine before cleaning a

jam. (Fig. 20)

Open the slide door and remove nails from the magazine.

Press the short top end of the hex wrench and take it out

from the holder. (Fig. 21)

Remove two screws with the hex wrench that are securing

the contact top cover.

Take the jammed nails from the nail guide groove that has

appeared.

When it is difficult to take out the jammed nails, further

remove two screws with the hex wrench that are securing

the driver guide cover. Then take them out.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always lock the trigger and disconnect the hose before

attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Maintenance of nailer (Fig. 22)

Always check the tool for its overall condition and loose

screws before operation. Tighten as required. (Fig. 23)

With tool disconnected, make daily inspection to assure

free movement of the contact element and trigger. Do not

use tool if the contact element or trigger sticks or binds.

Draining the tool (Fig. 24)

Disconnect the hose from the tool. Place the tool so that

the air fitting faces down to the floor. Drain as much as

possible.

Cleaning of tool

Blow off dust by using an air duster.

Cap (Fig. 25)

When not in use, lock the trigger and disconnect the hose.

Then cap the air fitting port. (Fig. 26)

When the tool is not to be used for an extended period of

time, lubricate the tool using pneumatic tool oil and store

the tool in a safe place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight

and/or humid or hot environment. (Fig. 27)

Maintenance of compressor, air set and

air hose (Fig. 28 & 29)

After operation, always drain the compressor tank and the

air filter. If moisture is allowed to enter the tool, It may

result in poor performance and possible tool failure.

Check regularly to see if there is sufficient pneumatic oil in

the oiler of the air set. Failure to maintain sufficient

lubrication will cause O-rings to wear quickly. (Fig. 30)

Keep the air hose away from heat (over 60°C, over

140°F), away from chemicals (thinner, strong acids or

alkalis). Also, route the hose away from obstacles which it

may become dangerously caught on during operation.

Hoses must also be directed away from sharp edges and

areas which may lead to damage or abrasion to the hose.

(Fig. 31)

To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,

any other maintenance and adjustment should be

performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always

using Makita replacement parts.
