Batteries and Battery Charging

Charge batteries before use. • A battery that is new or has not been used for a long period

does not charge to full capacity until after approximately 5 charge/discharge cycles. • Do not

recharge batteries after using them if they are not to be used for an extended period. • Recharge batteries

only as and when required. • If the battery is warm after use, allow it to cool before charging, otherwise it

may not fully charge. • Use only with the batteries and battery charger specified by the manufacturer. •

Batteries can explode in the presence of an ignition source, such as a pilot light. Never use any cordless

product in the presence of open ﬂame. Exploding batteries can propel debris and chemicals. • Do not use the

charger in wet areas or expose it to rain or water. • Ensure that the battery charger electrical cord is not

subjected to damage or stress. Do not operate the battery charger if it has a damaged electrical cord or plug.

• Do not open the battery – danger of short-circuiting and/or explosion. • Do not touch the battery terminals

with metal objects and/or body parts as short-circuit and/or personal injury may result. • For best results,

charge batteries in temperatures between 7°C (45°F) and 40°C (104°F). • Dispose of non-serviceable

batteries in an environmentally responsible manner and according to local regulations. Charging time varies

for different battery types depending on battery capacity and charger output etc. • To prolong battery life,

avoid leaving the battery pack on charge for extended periods (over 30 days without use). • During charging,

the battery may become warm and some noise may be emitted – this is normal.

Depth Adjustment

Depth adjustment helps protect work surface and allows proper setting of nail

heads – set the depth so the nail head sits just beneath the work surface.

Always hold the tool firmly against the work-piece to ensure consistent nailing

depth. To adjust nailing depth:

1. Remove the battery, fuel cell and nails from the tool.

2. Loosen (do not remove) the safety contact tip (A) locking bolt (B) using a

4mm Allen key.

3. Move the safety contact tip UP to INCREASE nailing depth or DOWN to

DECREASE nailing depth, as required.

4. Firmly tighten the locking bolt.

5. Test the tool to ensure correct depth adjustment. Re-adjust as required.

Removing Jammed Fasteners

You must remove jammed fasteners before using the tool any further, otherwise personal

injury and/or damage to the tool may result.

A fastener jam will prevent the tool from operating normally. To remove jammed fasteners:

1. Remove the battery, fuel cell and nails from the tool.

2. Unscrew and remove the nailing head (A) bolts (B) using a 4mm Allen key. Note that the bolts have a

lock washer and flat washer under the bolt head.

3. Swing the magazine away from the nailing head to access the jammed fastener(s).

4. For the jammed fasteners, attempt to remove them with pliers or similar, however, do not use excessive

force.

5. Re-install the nailing head bolts and washers. Note that if the collets (C) fall from the magazine, re-install

them with the collar-end (D) facing into the magazine.
