IF GUN JAMS & NO LONGER FIRES POINTS
• Keep 1” or higher stack of points in gun at all times
• Make sure you are using authentic Logan rigid or flexible points (F53, F54, F55, F56).
• Make sure points are loaded and seated correctly. Try removing and re-loading the point strip.
• To remove a point jammed in the nose piece, reference the instructions to remove the nose piece, clear
it and re-install it.
• If point does not leave the gun, try reducing or tightening tension.
• Check to see that main body screws holding two halves of the tool together are not loose. If necessary,
re-tighten with Phillips screwdriver.

• If flexible inserts are bending or not staying in the wood, try increasing the tension or switch to rigid
points.
• Try reducing the tension if handle is hard to pull.

Operating Instructions
Blade install: (Fig. 1)
1. Determine right hand or left hand usage.
2. Remove nut and three (3) blades.
3. Separate and install one blade, sharp edge down.
4. Slide cover to “safe” when not using and “blade” when ready to use.
Apply dust cover:
1. Using double sided tape , ATG tape or glue, apply continuous line around
back of frame about 1/8” from edge (Fig. 2)
2. Cut a piece of Kraft paper (30, 40, or 50 lb available at craft stores) that
is larger than overall outside of frame by a minimum of 1”.
3. Lay paper flat onto table and drop the frame straight down onto the
paper with taped side down and artwork side facing up. (Fig. 3)
4. Using water in a spray bottle, completely dampen Kraft paper evenly. As
water dries, the paper will shrink tight. (Fig. 4) NOTE: Use a hairdryer to
decrease drying time.
5. Crease paper along the edges of frames (Fig. 5)
6. Using trimmer, start beyond edge of a corner, hold on slight angle up
against frame edge. Draw trimmer along edge to trim. (Fig. 6)
7. Repeat for other three sides.

Several options exist for hanging your artwork, but the general method utilizes picture hanging wire because it provides the greatest ease and flexibility with artwork
of any size. In recent years, strap hangers with D‑rings have grown in popularity over screweyes, because they lie flat against the back of the dust cover and won’t
scratch the wall.
Installing D-Rings
To position D‑Rings, measure about one‑third down from the top of the frame and mark the location. Do this on both sides. Nylon‑coated hanging wire comes in
three strengths: 19 lb., 25 lb. and 43 lb. Each strength is a measure of the weight‑bearing capacity of the wire. If the framed piece is too heavy for the wire, the wire
will unravel, pulling free of the hangers, regardless of the complexity of the knots used.
To attach D‑Rings to soft or medium wood frames,
make a pilot hole in the back of the frame with a
scratch awl. Turn the screw into the wood with a
screwdriver (Fig. 1). To attach a D‑Ring into hard‑
wood frames, drill a hole with a power drill and attach
the screw with a power screwdriver (Fig. 2).

Installing Wire
To install the wire, insert one end
through the D‑Ring allowing 3‑5 inches
of wire to feed through, twist it around
itself and loop it through the D‑Ring
one more time. Pull tight and then coil
the excess around itself keeping the coil
tight and cutting away any excess after
finishing. (Fig. 3)
Stretch the wire across through the other
D‑Ring allowing 3‑5 inches of excess, use
a finger to pull up slightly in the center of the wire to create some slack in
the middle of the wire and repeat the tying and coiling process. (Fig. 4)
Attaching Bumper Pads
For a nice finishing touch, attach self‑adhesive bumper pads to bottom corners on the back of your frame.
These will prevent the frame from scratching the wall, allow air circulation behind the frame to help prevent
any condensation and allow some light behind the frame to help prevent fading of wall paint color. (Fig. 5)
