disconnect battery pack from tool and remove nails from magazine
before making adjustments.
Each DeWALT nailer is equipped with a trigger lock-off 2 which when pushed to
the right as shown in Figure G, prevents the tool from firing a nail by locking the
trigger and bypassing power to the motor.
When the trigger lock-off is pressed to the left, the tool will be fully operational.
The trigger lock-off should always be locked off (Fig. G) whenever any adjustments
are made or when tool is not in immediate use.
NOTICE: Do not store tool with battery pack installed. To prevent damage
to the pack and to ensure best battery life, store battery packs out of the
tool or charger in a cool, dry location.
