Frequently Asked Questions - NT1865DSA HiKOKI

How do I turn on the NT1865DSA nailer?

Press and hold the power switch (marked with a circle) for more than 1 second. The green power indicator will light up. The tool will automatically turn off after 30 minutes of inactivity.

What type of nails does this nailer use?

It uses 16-gauge straight finish nails with lengths from 25 mm to 64 mm. Only use nails specified in the manual to avoid malfunction.

How do I select between full sequential and contact actuation?

Press the nailing operation switch (located on the operation panel) to toggle. The indicator lights solid blue for full sequential and blinks blue for contact actuation. Note: New Zealand models only support full sequential.

What should I do if the nailer jams?

First, remove the battery and all nails. Then open the guide plate by releasing the lock lever. Use a slotted-head screwdriver to remove the jammed nail. Close the guide plate and ensure the push lever slides smoothly.

How can I adjust the nailing depth?

Turn the adjuster (located near the firing head) in half-turn increments. Turn towards the shallow side if nails are too deep, or towards the deep side if too shallow. Test after each adjustment.

How do I charge the battery?

Insert the battery into the UC18YSL3 charger. The charge indicator lamp will blink blue during charging and light green when fully charged. Charging time for a 5.0 Ah battery is about 32 minutes at 20°C.

Why does the nailer stop firing even though nails remain?

The empty-firing prevention activates when 10 or fewer nails are left. Reload with a fresh strip of at least 10 nails to continue. If the problem persists, check for a jam or contact service.

Can I use the nailer on both sides of a wall simultaneously?

No, never drive nails from both sides of a wall at the same time. Nails may pass through and cause injury to persons on the opposite side.

How do I attach or remove the nose cap?

First, remove the battery and all remaining fasteners. Then press the nose cap onto the tip of the push lever. Extra nose caps are stored under the magazine. The nose cap may reduce nailing depth, so readjust if needed.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.

A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation.

If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer.

A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

b) Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs.

Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

6) Service

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

PRECAUTION

Keep children and infirm persons away.

When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach of children and infirm persons.

1. Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Careless handling of the nailer can result in unexpected firing of fasteners and personal injury.

2. Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone nearby. Unexpected triggering will discharge the fastener causing an injury.

3. Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected away from your target.

4. Disconnect the tool from the power source when the fastener jams in the tool. While removing a jammed fastener, the nailer may be accidentally activated if it is plugged in.

5. Use caution while removing a jammed fastener. The mechanism may be under compression and the fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting to free a jammed condition.

6. Do not use this nailer for fastening electric cables. It is not designed for electric cable installation and may damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing electric shock or fire hazards.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

1. Safe operation through correct usage.

This tool was designed for driving nails into wood and similar materials. Use it for its intended purpose only.

1. Be careful of ignition and explosions.

Since sparks may fly during nailing, it is dangerous to use this tool near lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, gas, adhesives and similar inflammable substances as they may ignite or explode. Under no circumstances should this tool therefore be used in the vicinity of such inflammable material.

1. Always wear eye protection (protective goggles).

When operating the power tool, always wear eye protection, and ensure that surrounding people wear eye protection too. Eye protection should not be inferior to the specification set in AS/NZS 1337 Eye protectors for industrial applications.

The possibility of fragments of the nails that were not properly hit entering the eye is a threat to sight. Always wear eye protection while operating this tool. Use either eye protection or a wide vision mask over prescription glasses.

Employers should always enforce the use of eye protection equipment.

1. Protect your ears and head.

When engaged in nailing work please wear ear mufflers and head protection. Also, depending on condition, ensure that surrounding people also wear ear mufflers and head protection. Hearing protection equipment should be of a reputable make and manufactured to an acceptable standard, for example AS/NZS 1270 Acoustics-Hearing protectors.

1. Pay attention to those working close to you.

It would be very dangerous if nails that were not properly driven in should hit other people. Therefore, always pay attention to the safety of the people around you when using this tool. Always make sure that nobody's body, hands or feet are close to the nail outlet.

1. Never point the nail outlet towards people.

Always assume the tool contains fasteners.

If the nail outlet is pointed towards people, serious accidents may be caused if you mistakenly discharge the tool. When connecting and disconnecting the battery, during nail loading or similar operations, be sure the nail outlet is not pointed towards anyone (including yourself).

Even when no nails are loaded at all, it is dangerous to discharge the tool while pointing it at someone, so never attempt to do so. No horseplay. Respect the tool as a working implement.

1. Check push lever before use.

Make sure the push lever operates properly. Never use the Nailer unless the push lever is operating properly, otherwise the Nailer could drive a fastener unexpectedly. Do not tamper with or remove the push lever, otherwise the push lever becomes inoperable.

1. Choice of triggering method is important.

Read and understand section titled "HOW TO USE THE NAILER" on page 16.

1. Prior to using this product, make sure that it is operating properly in accordance with the content of "Testing the nailer" on page 15.

2. Use specified nails only.

Never use nails other than those specified and described in these instructions.

1. Be careful when connecting the battery.

When connecting the battery and loading nails in order not to fire the tool by mistake, make sure of the followings.

○ Do not touch the trigger.

○ Do not allow the firing head to contact with any surface.

○ Keep the firing head down.

Strictly observe the above instructions, and always make sure that no part of the body, hands or legs is ever in front of the nail outlet.

1. Do not carelessly place your finger on the trigger.

Do not place your finger on the trigger except when actually nailing. If you carry this tool or hand it to someone while having your finger on the trigger, you may inadvertently discharge a nail and thus cause an accident.

1. Press the nail outlet firmly against the material to be nailed.

When driving in nails, press the nail outlet firmly against the material to be nailed. If the outlet is not applied properly, the nails may rebound.

1. Keep hands and feet away from the firing head when using.

It is very dangerous for a nail to hit the hands or feet by mistake.

1. Beware of the tool's kickback.

Do not approach the top of the tool with your head etc. during operation. This is dangerous because the tool may recoil violently if the nail currently being driven in comes into contact with a previous nail or a knot in the wood.

1. Be careful of double fire due to recoil.

If the push lever is unintentionally allowed to re-contact the workpiece following recoil, an unwanted fastener will be driven.

In order to avoid this undesirable double fire,

○ Intermittent operation (Trigger firing)

1) Set the switching device to FULL SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM.

2) Pull the trigger rapidly and firmly.

O Continuous operation (Push lever firing) (New Zealand model of NT1865DSA specifications excluded)

1) Do not press the nailer against the wood with excessive force.

2) Separate the nailer from the wood as it recoils after fastening.

1. Take care when nailing thin boards or the corners of wood.

When nailing thin boards, the nails may pass right through, as may also be the case when nailing the corners of wood due to deviation of the nails. In such cases, always make sure that there is no one (and nobody's hands or feet; etc.) behind the thin board or next to the wood you are going to nail.

1. Simultaneous nailing on both sides of the same wall is dangerous.

Under no circumstances should nailing be performed on both sides of a wall at the same time. This would be very dangerous since the nails might pass through the wall and thus cause injuries.

1. Do not use the power tool on scaffoldings, ladders.

The power tool shall not be used for specific application for example:

- when changing one driving location to another involves the use of scaffoldings, stairs, ladders or ladder alike constructions, e.g. roof laths,

– closing boxes or crates,

- fitting transportation safety systems e.g. on vehicles and wagons

1. Remove all remaining fasteners and battery from nailer when:

1) doing maintenance and inspection;

2) checking proper operation of push lever and trigger;

3) attaching or removing the nose cap;

4) clearing a jam;
5) it is not in use;
6) leaving work area;
7) moving it to another location; and
8) handing it to another person.

Never attempt to clear a jam or repair the Nailer unless you have removed battery and all remaining fasteners from the Nailer.

The Nailer should never be left unattended since people who are not familiar with the Nailer might handle it and injure the themselves.

*2 Battery overheated. Unable to charge. Although charging will start once the battery has cooled down even when left in situ, the best practice is to remove the battery and allow it to cool down in a shaded, well-ventilated location before charging.

*3 Malfunction in the battery or the charger

– Fully insert the battery.

- Check to confirm that no foreign matter is stuck to the battery mount or terminals. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center.

When the battery charger has been continuously used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 5 minutes rest until the next charging.

NOTE

• The recharging time may vary according to the ambient temperature and power source voltage.
  ○ If charging takes a long time

- Charging will take longer at extremely low ambient temperatures. Charge the battery in a warm location (such as indoors).

• Do not block the air vent. Otherwise the interior will overheat, reducing the charger's performance.

• If the cooling fan is not operating, contact a HiKOKI Authorized Service Center for repairs.

• Disconnect the charger's power cord from the receptacle.

• Hold the charger firmly and pull out the battery. NOTE

Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use, and then keep it.

Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc.

As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and batteries that have not been used for an extended period is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when using them the first and second time. This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.

How to make the batteries perform longer.

(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
