(Fig. F)
WARNING: Always
wear proper eye [ANSI
Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3)]
and ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
hearing protection when
operating tool.
The DeWALT cordless
nailers are assembled in
accordance with the
ANSI Standard SNT-101-
2002. The framing nailer
is capable of firing nails
using bump actuation or
sequential actuation. If
you would like
to have the
bump actuation
mode disabled,
have the tool serviced
by an authorized
DeWALT service center.
Before operating this
tool, look at the selector
switch to determine the
actuation mode. Read all
instructions before
selecting actuation
mode.
WARNING: Keep fingers
AWAY from trigger
when not driving nails to
avoid accidental firing.
NEVER carry tool with
finger on trigger. In bump mode tool will fire a nail if contact trip is bumped while
trigger is depressed.
Sequential action
Use sequential action for intermittent nailing where very careful and accurate
placement and depth control is desired. The sequential actuation mode
provides the maximum delivery of power for driving the longest nails. To
operate the nailer in sequential action mode
1. Slide the mode selector switch 9 to the left.
2. Fully depress nosepiece against the work surface (motor will start).
3. Pull trigger (nail will drive into work surface).
4. Release trigger.
5. Lift nosepiece off work surface.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for next application.
NOTICE: The contact trip needs to be depressed followed by a trigger pull
for each nail followed by a release of both the contact trip and trigger
after each nail.
Bump action
Bump action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary surfaces and typically
most effective for applications that require driving shorter nails.
When using bump action, two methods are available: place actuation and bump
actuation.
Slide the mode selector switch 9 to the right. To Operate the Tool Using
the Place Actuation
Method
WARNING: A nail will fire each time the trigger is depressed as long
as the contact trip remains depressed.
1. Depress the contact trip against the work surface.
2. Depress the trigger.
To Operate the Tool Using the Bump Actuation
Method
1. Depress the trigger.
2. Push the contact trip against the work surface. As long as the trigger is
depressed, the tool will fire a nail every time the contact trip is depressed. This
allows the user to drive multiple nails in sequence.
WARNING: Do not keep trigger depressed when tool is not in use. Keep the
trigger lock-off in the locked position when the tool is not in use.
WARNING: When the tool’s motor is running, the next actuation, pulling the
trigger or depressing the contact trip, will cause a nail to fire.
