Clearing a Jammed Pin (Fig. A, K)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, disconnect battery pack from tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
servicing, or moving the tool. Such preventative
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
toolaccidentally.

CAUTION: When removing a jammed pin, DO
NOT orient the nailer with the nose up or with
the battery foot up. Positioning the nailer this way
makes the jammed pin or pieces of the pin more likely
to be ingested into the nailer. If any portion of a pin is
ingested into the tool, the pin should be retrieved by
removing the topcap.
If a pin becomes jammed in the nosepiece, keep the tool
pointed away from you and follow these instructions
toclear:
1. Remove battery pack from tool and engage trigger
lock-off.
2. After laying the tool on its side, slide the spring-loaded
pusher latch
15
to the base of the magazine to lock it
into place and unload pinstrip.
3. Rotate the magazine release lever
14
and rotate the

CAUTION: If any portion of a pin is ingested into
the tool, the pin should be retrieved by removing the
topcap.
5. If the driver is in the down position, rotate the stall
release lever on the top of thenailer.
NOTE: If the driver will not reset after rotating the stall
release lever, manually resetting the blade with a long
screw driver may benecessary.
6. Rotate the magazine back into position under the nose
of the tool and close the magazine releaselever.
7. Reinsert batterypack.
NOTE: The tool will disable itself and not reset until the
battery pack has been removed andreinserted.

1. Keep tool as warm as possible prior touse.
2. Actuate the tool 10 or 15 times into scrap lumber
beforeusing.
Hot Weather Operation
Tool should operate normally. However, keep tool out of
direct sunlight as excessive heat can deteriorate bumpers
and other rubber parts resulting in increasedmaintenance.

injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start-up can causeinjury.
DAILY MAINTENANCE CHART

is not recommended as they tend to attract
debris and/or damage the plastic parts of
the tool.

and fasteners are tight and undamaged.

toolparts.
HOW Tighten loose screws using the appropriate
hex wrench or screwdriver.
