INSTALLATION

Selecting compressor

The air compressor must comply with the requirements

of ANSI B19.3.

Select a compressor that has ample pressure and air

output to assure cost-efficient operation. The graph

shows the relation between nailing frequency, applicable

pressure and compressor air output.

Thus, for example, if nailing takes place at a rate of

approximately 60 times per minute at a compression of

7.0 kgf/cm

G (100 PSIG), a compressor with an air out-

put over 2 CFM ( ft

/minute) is required.

Pressure regulators must be used to limit air pressure to

the rated pressure of the tool where air supply pressure

exceeds the tool’s rated pressure. Failure to do so may

result in serious injury to tool operator or persons in the

vicinity.

Selecting air hose

Use an air hose as large and as short as possible to

assure continuous, efficient nailing operation. With an air

pressure of 5.0 kgf/cm

G (70 PSIG), an air hose with an

internal diameter of over 6.5 mm (1/4”) and a length of

less than 20 m (6.6 ft.) is recommended when the inter-

val between each nailing is 0.5 seconds. Air supply

hoses shall have a minimum working pressure rating of

10.7 kgf/cm

G (150 PSIG) or 150 percent of the maxi-

mum pressure produced in the system whichever is

higher.

CAUTION:

• Low air output of the compressor, or a long or

smaller diameter air hose in relation to the nailing

frequency may cause a decrease in the driving

capability of the tool.

Lubrication

To insure maximum performance, install an air set (oiler,

regulator, air filter) as close as possible to the tool. Adjust

the oiler so that one drop of oil will be provided for every

50 nails.

When an air set is not used, oil the tool with pneumatic

tool oil by placing 2 (two) or 3 (three) drops into the air fit-

ting. This should be done before and after use. For

proper lubrication, the tool must be fired a couple of

times after pneumatic tool oil is introduced.
