SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Always use approved SAFETY GLASSES and EAR PROTECTION when operating this Nailer. The operator and others in the work area should always wear approved FRONT and SIDE eye protection when operating this Nailer. Eye protection will help guard against flying nails and debris, which could cause severe eye injury.

EYE AND EAR PROTECTION should be used to prevent hearing damage when there are high noise levels in the work area.

ALWAYS use ear plugs with a noise reduction rated at 29 db or higher at a construction site.

Nailer noise ratings are at LPA-1sd=90.6,

LWA-1sd=99.3 and LPA-1s,1m=86.3.

Nailer vibration rating: m/s2=3.05.

Always DISCONNECT THE AIR SUPPLY before making any adjustments, repairing, clearing jams or when the Nailer is not in use. Do not use on scaffolding or ladders and disconnect nailer from air supply when transporting between installation areas.

Never attach the female end of a quick disconnect to the Nailer. This will trap air inside the Nailer and permit it to be discharged. Only the unrestricted male connection should be attached to the Nailer.

Nailer requires an air source that can continuously deliver 80 to 110 psi at 3-1/2 cubic feet of air per minute for operation.

Normal air pressure should not exceed 120 psi or damage to the Nailer and seals may occur. Excess air pressure can cause the Nailer to explode.

To prevent fire or explosion, use only regulated compressed air—do not use bottled gases of any kind (no oxygen or combustible gasses) to power this Nailer.

Nailer is intended for use installing wood flooring and is not to be used for purposes not specified in the operations manual.

Do not use any nails other than Powernail Powercleats Nails which are specifically designed for use in any Powernailer. Powercleats Nails are available in various lengths. Contact your Powernail Dealer for Powercleats Nails.

Use only Powernail replacement parts in the repair or maintenance of this nailer. Parts or repair services are available from the manufacturer or from agents authorised by the manufacturer. Repairs should be carried out only by trained service personnel in the field of fastener driving tools who will observe proper safety controls while performing maintenance. Service personnel should be qualified to to assess the safe working condition of fastener driving tools.

Never place any part of the body in the discharge path of the Nailer when air is connected to the Nailer. Always make sure Nailer is empty of cleats before connecting air hose so as to prevent any accidental discharge from occurring.

Never leave the Nailer unattended while it is connected to an air supply.

Whenever air is connected to the Nailer, keep body parts away from the nail discharge path. Disconnect the air line before making adjustments or repairs on the Nailer. Only connect air to an unloaded Nailer so as to prevent accidental discharge.

Nailer is activated by striking the plunger. Do not work on scaffolding, ladders, elevated or uneven surfaces where the nailer could fall and self-activate. Do not leave air attached to the Nailer when moving from one install location to another.

OPERATION

Read these instructions carefully before you use the Nailer.

To use the Powernail Flex, adjust the nailer FLEX foot to a sample of your flooring (see instructions below).

When the nailer foot is adjusted to your flooring, simply place the nailer on the floor and pull nailer back so the triangle & 9mm roller (Figure 2) catch the edge of the floor above the tongue. Hit the plunger with the rubber-capped mallet-end to let the Nailer drive and set the nail at the correct 45 degree angle.

FLEX Foot Adjustment:

Wood varies from one manufacturer to the next. The different wood profi les may be due to height and length of the fl ooring tongue and whether or not there is a nail pocket.

First, loosen the two hex bolts under the FLEX foot with the Allen Wrench supplied with the nailer. (Figure. 1.)

Using 2-3 sample boards of your flooring, set the nailer on the boards with the 4 large rollers flat on the floor and the triangle & 9mm roller sitting on or above the tongue.

Use the FLEX adjustment lever (Figure 1) at the back of the nailer foot to raise the triangle & 9mm roller above the flooring tongue. There should always be a gap between the tongue and the triangle & 9mm to avoid unnecessary wear (Figure 2).

When the setting is correct for your wood sample, tighten the two hex bolts to lock the FLEX foot into place.

Always test-nail a wood sample to ensure the nail is driving into the nail pocket at the back of the flooring tongue.

Figure 2.

Raise the nailer foot to leave a small gap between the triangle & 9mm roller and the fl ooring tongue.

Loading Top Load Channel:

To Load the Powernail Flex:

Pull back the spring loaded nail pusher towards the end of the channel until the pusher plate locks (Figure 3). Place up to one stick (100) of Powercleats® (18-gauge) nails, 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2" or 1-3/4" long into the nail feed slot located on the top of the channel (Figure 4). Release nail pusher from locked position and gently guide it down until it meets the end of the cleat strip (Figure 5.

To Unload

Pull back the spring loaded nail pusher towards the end of the channel until the pusher plate locks. Then turn the nailer over so so that the nails slide out of the top nail feed slot.

Figure 1. FLEX Adjustment Lever Hex Allen Wrench

1. Loosen 2 hex screws.
2. Raise or lower the FLEX to your wood sample.
3. Match the triangle & 9mm roller to the nail pocket.
4. Tighten 2 hex screws.
5. Test wood sample with new adjustment.

WARNING: It is not necessary to hit the Nailer hard to activate it. Never hit the Nailer with excessive force or with the metal end of the mallet, this will damage the Nailer.

Before each use check all screws to be sure they are tight. Shock and vibration can loosen screws. Do not over tighten any screw.

AIR SUPPLY:

The air must be clean and dry. Dirty and/or wet air will damage the Nailer. A combination fi Iterregulator-lubricator is required for proper Nailer performance and should be placed close to the Nailer per manufacturer's recommendations.

The air source must continuously deliver 80 to 110 psi at 3-1/2 cubic feet of air per minute to operate the Nailer. Connect a clean air hose and air regulator to the Nailer.

Check for air supply leaks that waste air and starve the Nailer of air thereby reducing its performance.

LUBRICATION:

If you do not use an in line lubricator, you must lubricate the Nailer manually. The frequency of lubrication is dependent upon the duty cycle of the Nailer. Continuous duty requires more frequent oiling than intermittent duty.

At least every eight (8) hours place two to four drops of Pneumatic Light Air Tool Oil into the disconnected air line male connector attached to the Nailer. WARNING: Detergent oil is not recommended and may damage the seals.

WARNING: Do not over lubricate the Nailer, excess oil mist or drops will be vented with spent air when over lubricated. Excess oil could stain the wood flooring, walls or furnishings. Dry fi re the Nailer, without nails, to purge excess oil, before you begin to nail down flooring. We will not be responsible for oil stains. Before storing the Nailer, lubricate and cycle the Nailer in insure internal parts are oil protected from corrosion.

PARTS & SERVICE:

When ordering parts include the part number, part description, Powernailer model and serial number. Be sure to state the quantity of the part(s) required. Contact your Powernail Dealer for the necessary parts or service.

WARNING: Never work on the Nailer if the air line is attached. Always disconnect the air line from the Nailer first.
