features positive, quick action latch. Safety feature disables
toot unless contact trip is pressed against workpiece. Tapered
nosepiece provides operator with greater visibility for precise
fastener placement. Rigid nosepiece reduces jamming. The 18

OPERATION

Refer to Figures 2 & 5 (pages 3 and 6).

Refer to Figures 3 & 5 (pages 3 and 6)

WARNING:
Disconnect toot from air supply. Always toad with
nose of tool pointing away from you and others. Always wear
safety goggles that comply with United States ANSI Z87.1.

WARNING:
Never operate tool unless contact trip is in contact with workpiece. Do not operate tool without fasteners or
damage to tool may result. Never fire fasteners into the air
because fasteners may injure operator or others and damage
to tool may result.

NOTE: For best results, use Sears fasteners only.
•

Depress latch (Fig. 5, No. 51) and slide magazine cover
(Fig. 5, No. 49) backwards (see Figure 2). Insert fasteners
into magazine. Position nails at bottom of magazine with
heads toward top of tool (see Figure 2A).

•

Position staples crown at top of magazine with tips toward
bottom of tool (see Figure 2B)

•

Do not toad nails and staples together when driving fasteners.

•

Slide magazine cover forward over magazine until latch
snaps into place, locking magazine cover.

•

The air tool is equipped with a contact trip safety mechanism (see Figure 3) that disables tool unless contact trip is
pushed against work. Hold body firmly and press contact
trip on workpiece where fastener is to be applied. Pull
trigger to drive fastener into workpiece.

•

The tool can also be operated by holding trigger
depressed and pushing contact trip against workpiece.
This operating procedure provides rapid-fire fastener
driving. Never operate tool unless contact trip is in
contact with workpiece.

The tool is equipped with a push-button switch that can
change the operating mode from rapid-fire to single fire.
When the red stop button (Fig. 5, No. 31) is pushed in from
the fastener loading side, the tool will fire one fastener only.
To fire the next fastener, the trigger (Fig. 5, No. 29) must be
released.
OPERATING
•

•

Refer to Figure 5 (page 6).
LUBRICATION
Lubricate tool daily with quality air tool oil. If no air line lubricator is used, place five to six drops of oil into air inlet cap
(Fig. 5, No. 38) of tool every day.

PRESSURE

Use only enough air pressure to perform the operation. Air
pressure in excess of that which is required will make the
operation inefficient and may cause premature wear or
damage to the tool.

MAGAZINE
•

Determine minimum air pressure required by driving some
test fasteners into the workpiece. Set air pressure so that
test fasteners are driven down flush with the work surface.
Fasteners driven too deep may damage workpiece.

EXHAUST

AND

PISTON-RAM

Keep magazine and nose of tool clean and free of any dirt,
lint or abrasive particles.

The tip of the ram (Fig. 5, No. 13) can become dented or
rounded over time.
•

DEFLECTOR

Refer to Figures 4 & 5 (pages 4 and 6).
• Exhaust deflector can be positioned to point in any direction
(full 360° movement). Reposition deflector (Fig. 5, No. 1) by
grasping firmly and rotating to the desired position.

Square off the tip of the ram with a clean, fine hand file to
extend the life of the ram and tool. Fastener firing wilt be
more consistent if the ram tip is kept clean and square.

SAFETY

MECHANISM

Inspect contact trip safety mechanism daily for proper operation. Do not operate tool if mechanism is not operating
properly.
With the red push-button switch in the rapid-fire mode, perform the following procedures to test safety mechanism:

Rotate Deflector

•

Leave trigger untouched while pushing contact trip into
workpiece. Tool must not fire.

•

Pull trigger while contact trip is clear of work and pointed
away from operator and others. Tool must not fire.

•

Depress and hold trigger. Push contact trip against work
where fastener is needed. The tool should drive only one
fastener each time the contact trip is pushed against
workpiece.

If contact trip mechanism does not operate properly,
repair tool immediately through Sears Service Center.
Replace any damaged or missing parts. Use the parts list to
order parts.
REBUILD

KITS

Rebuild kits are available as spare parts, (see page 7). Tools
should be rebuilt if tool fails to operate properly after extended
use. See troubleshooting to determine required replacement
parts.
