General Safety
Information (Continued)
Always assume the tool contains
fasteners. Respect the tool as a
working implement; no horseplay.
Always keep others at a safe dis-
tance from the work area in case of
accidental discharge of fasteners.
Do not point the tool toward your-
self or anyone whether it contains
fasteners or not. Accidental trigger-
ing of the tool could result in death
or serious personal injury.
Do not drive a fas-
tener on top of
other fasteners.
The fastener could
glance and cause
death or a serious
puncture wound.
Do not operate
or allow anyone
else to operate
the tool if any
warnings or
warning labels
are not legible. Warnings or warning
labels are located on the tool maga-
zine and body.
Do not drop or throw the tool.
Dropping or throwing the tool can
result in damage that will make the
tool unusable or unsafe. If the tool
has been dropped or thrown, exam-
ine the tool closely for bent, cracked
or broken parts and air leaks. STOP
and repair before using or serious
injury could occur.
Clean and check all air supply hoses
and fittings before connecting the
tool to an air supply. Replace any
damaged or worn hoses or fittings.
Tool performance or durability may
be reduced.
Air compressors providing air to the
tool should follow the requirements
established by the American
National Standards Institute
Standard B19.3-1991; Safety
Standard for Compressors for
Process Industries. Contact your air
compressor manufacturer for
information.
Operating The Tool
RECOMMENDED HOOKUP
The illustration below shows the
recommended hookup for the tool.
1. The air com-
pressor must
be able to
maintain a
minimum of
60 psi when
the tool is being used. An inade-
quate air supply can cause a loss of
power and inconsistent driving.
2. Use 3/8” air
hoses with a
minimum
working pres-
sure of 150
psi. Use 1/2” air hoses for 50’ run or
longer. For better performance,
install a 3/8” quick plug (1/4” NPT
threads) with an inside diameter of
.315" (8mm) on the tool and a 3/8”
quick coupler on the air hose.
Caution indicates
a potentially haz-
ardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate
injury.
Do not make any modifications to the
tool without first obtaining written
approval from Campbell Hausfeld. Do
not use the tool if any shields or
guards are removed or altered. Do
not use the tool as a hammer.
Personal injury or tool
damage may
occur.
Avoid long
extended peri-
ods of work
with the tool.
Stop using the
tool if you feel
pain in hands or arms.
Always check that the Work Contact
Element (WCE) is operating proper-
ly. A fastener could accidentally be
driven if the WCE is not working
properly. Personal injury may occur
(See "Checking the Work Contact
Element" Section).
Disconnect air supply and release
tension from the pusher before
attempting to clear jams because
fasteners can be ejected from the
front of the tool. Personal injury
may occur.
Notice indicates
important infor-
mation, that if not followed, MAY
cause damage to equipment.
Avoid using the tool when the mag-
azine is empty. Accelerated wear on
the tool may occur.
