Operating Instructions

1. Powering On/Off

The tool is ready for use once the battery is installed. There is no separate power switch; the tool activates when the safety nose pin is depressed and the trigger is pulled.

2. Adjusting Fastener Depth

The Force Adjustment Dial (refer to Figure 1) allows you to control the depth at which fasteners are driven into the material.

• Turn the dial clockwise to increase driving depth (for harder materials or deeper countersink).
• Turn the dial counter-clockwise to decrease driving depth (for softer materials or flush finish).
• Always test on a scrap piece of material to find the optimal depth setting before working on your main project.

3. Firing Fasteners

1. Position the Tool: Place the safety nose pin firmly against the workpiece where you want to drive the fastener. The safety nose pin must be fully depressed.
2. Activate Worklight: If working in dark spaces, press the LED Worklight Switch (refer to Figure 1) to illuminate the work area.
3. Pull Trigger: While maintaining firm pressure on the tool against the workpiece, pull the On/Off Trigger (refer to Figure 1) to drive a fastener.
4. Release Trigger: Release the trigger after each fastener is driven.

The tool is capable of delivering up to 2000 shots on a full charge, depending on material and fastener type. The LED Battery Indicator (refer to Figure 1) will show the remaining battery life.
