- Locate the reload lever at the rear of the aluminum magazine.
- Pull the reload lever back to open the magazine.

Operating Instructions
1. Safety First
Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, when operating the tool. Ensure the work area is clear of obstructions and bystanders.
2. Adjusting Impact Force
The top rotating knob allows you to adjust the impact force to match the density of your material. Rotate the knob clockwise to increase shooting strength for harder materials, and counter-clockwise to reduce shooting strength for softer materials.

The rotary adjustment button on top of the tool allows for fine-tuning the impact force based on material density.
3. Firing the Tool
To fire a fastener:
- Place the tool's safety tip firmly against the workpiece. This action unlocks the safety mechanism.
- Apply firm downward pressure to ensure the tool is flush with the surface.
- Press the ON/OFF switch (trigger) to drive the fastener.
Pro Tip:
- Always use recommended nail/staple sizes. Avoid using over 1" crown staples or 1-3/8" brad nails to prevent issues.
- The integrated LED light illuminates the work area for improved visibility.
