1. To drive a nail, you may place the contact element

against the workpiece and pull the trigger, or

(Fig. 14 & 15)

2. Pull the trigger first and then place the contact element

against the workpiece.

• No. 1 method is for intermittent nailing, when you wish

to drive a nail carefully and very accurately. No. 2

method is for continuous nailing.

CAUTION:

• However when the tool is set to the “Intermittent

Nailing” mode, WITH THE TRIGGER HELD IN A

HALF-PULLED POSITION, an unexpected nailing

could occur, if contact element is allowed to re-contact

against the workpiece or the other surface under the

influence of recoil. In order to avoid this unexpected

nailing, perform as follows;

- A. Do not place the contact element against the

workpiece with excessive force.

- B. Pull the trigger fully and hold it on for 1-2 seconds

after nailing.

• For No. (1) method, set the change lever to the

position.

For No. (2) method, set the change lever to the

position.

After using the change lever to change the nailing

method, always make sure that the change lever is

properly set to the position for the desired nailing

method. (Fig. 16 & 17)

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always disconnect the air hose from the tool before

attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Jammed nailer (Fig. 18)

CAUTION:

• Always disconnect the air hose and remove the nails

from the magazine before cleaning a jam.

When the nailer becomes jammed, do as follows:

Open the magazine cap and remove the nail coil. Insert a

small rod or the like into the ejection port and tap it with a

hammer to drive out the nail jamming from the ejection

port. Reset the nail coil and close the magazine cap.

Cleaning and removal of tar and dirt

Adhesion of tar and dirt to areas around the contact

element will prevent smooth movement of the contact

element (safety mechanism). Causing accidental

discharge. Periodically clean the areas around the contact

element. Use a solvent such as kerosene, #2 fuel oil or

diesel fuel.

Immerse only the contact element and the areas around

the ejection port in solvent and remove tar and dirt with

brush. Always wear waterproof gloves to protect your

hands. Never immerse the housing, magazine, etc. in

solvent. Malfunction of the tool may result. Always

dispose of the solvent used in a safe and prudent manner

and in compliance with all local and national code

requirement. (Fig. 19)

Dry off the tool before use. Any oil film left after cleanup

will accelerate the tar buildup, and the tool will require

more frequent recleaning. After drying off the tool, oil the

moving parts to prevent rusting and to assure good

lubrication and operation or moving parts.

WARNING:

• Never use gasoline or other similar highly volatile

liquids for cleaning. Vapors of such liquids may enter

the tool and could be ignited by sparks produced during

nailing and cause an explosion.

Drain tool

Remove 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

Iron dust that adhere to the magnet can be blown off by

using an air duster.

Cap

When not in use, disconnect the hose. Then cap the air

fitting with the cap. (Fig. 20)

Storage

When not in use, the nailer should be stored in a warm

and dry place.

Maintenance of compressor, air set and air hose.

(FIg. 21 & 22)

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. 23)

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. 24)

To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,

any other maintenance or adjustment should be

performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always

using Makita replacement parts.
