6. Operation

6.1 Operation/Operating pressure

• Connect the pneumatic stapler/nailer to the compressed air connection (Fig. 1/Item B).
• Set the swivel air outlet (Fig.1/Item K) to the desired position.
• Before starting the stapler, switch on the compressor and set the operating pressure on the pressure reducer to 4 bar.
• The knurled screw (Fig. 6/Item G) for precision adjustment must be approximately in the middle position between Item 1 and 2. To do so, turn open the knurled screw three revolutions, starting from Position 1.
• For the purpose of setting the operating pressure it is advisable to use a test workpiece which is similar in structure and material thickness to the workpieces to be joined.
• To staple/nail, place the pneumatic stapler/nailer against the workpiece. Pull the trigger lever (Fig. 1/Item A) once and release it again after each shot.
• If the nail or the staple goes in too deep, reduce the operating pressure on the pressure reducer by 0.5 bar.
• If the nail or the staple does not go in deep enough or projects, increase the operating pressure on the pressure reducer by 0.5 bar.
• Place the stapler/nailer against the test workpiece again and fire.
• Depending on results, keep changing the operating pressure in 0.5 bar increments until the depth that the staples or nails are driven in is roughly correct. For precision adjustment (Section 6.2), use the knurled screw.
• The equipment also has an automatic mode. If you keep the trigger lever pressed, the staples/nails will be shot automatically when the pneumatic stapler/nailer is placed against the workpiece.
  • To prevent faults, make sure that you do not staple at the same point twice.

Danger!

If a staple or nail becomes jammed in the feed shaft, always immediately depressurize the equipment fi rst (remove the compressed air supply hose), open the magazine shaft and only then remove the cover plates (Fig. 8/Item I/J) by undoing the screws with the supplied hex key (Fig. 2/Item N) (Fig. 7/8). Remove the jammed staples, clean the shaft if necessary, and close again in reverse order.

6.2 Precision adjustment

• The equipment has a depth setting adjuster (Fig. 6/Item G) in the form of a knurled screw.
• If you screw it downwards (Fig. 6/Item 1), the staples/nails will be shot in deeper.
- If you want to reduce the depth that the staples/nails are shot in, you have to screw the knurled screw upwards (Fig. 6/Item 2).

Danger! To prevent triggering unintentionally, the depth setting must never be pulled back by hand in normal operation.
