Battery Indicator Light
Your Spear and Jackson nailer is fitted with a battery indicator light. The light not only indicates the
state of charge of the battery, it also indicates the operation of the cooling fan and if the nailer is
overheating.
Note: If the nailer is left unattended with the battery fitted for more than 75 seconds, the nailer will
enter sleep mode and the indicator light will stop flashing. This is to conserve battery power.

Fasteners/Nails
Your Spear and Jackson nailer uses clipped head 34 degree paper collated framing nails from 2.87mm
to 3.33mm in diameter and 50mm to 90mm in length. Using the incorrect nails will damage the tool
and cause the nails to jam. (Not covered under warranty)
An anti-dry fire feature is incorporated in this tool. When there are only 3~5 nails left in the
magazine, the tool will cease to fire until more nails are loaded. This prevents firing the tool with
no nails fitted which could damage the nailer.
1. Slide the nail strips into the magazine. Ensure that the nails are loaded correctly. 80 nails can be
loaded at a time.
2. Pull the magazine actuator firmly downwards until the end of the magazine is reached.
3. Slowly release the magazine actuator until the actuator contacts the loaded nails.

3. Squeeze trigger.
4. The spark plug ignites the fuel/air mixture driving the piston assembly down on the fasteners.
5. Lift tool, then release trigger and the combustion chamber opens. The fan exhausts the hot
gases and cools internal components.
Warning: remove the battery from the nailer before making a drive depth adjustment
The Spear and Jackson nailer features an adjustable drive depth. This means that you can adjust
how deep the nailer will finish the nail in the work surface. In order to change the drive depth
adjust the drive depth wheel as indicated in the below diagram.
