Warning: Safety Precautions
The following pages contain detailed warnings, cautions, and rules of safe operation.
Read carefully and become familiar before operating to avoid serious injury. We
expressly disclaim any liability for any injury to persons or damage to property which result
from your failure to take the precautions contained in this manual.
!
WARNINGICON G001
WARNING: This tool is designed only for use by qualified operators. Qualification
is obtained through a thorough understanding of the Safety Warnings and operating
instructions as defined in this operating manual. NOTE: The labor regulations of many
states require that the operator of this tool on a job site be thoroughly trained and certified
for competence prior to operating this tool. For certification procedures, call: DESA
Technical Services Department, 1-800-626-2237.
!
WARNING ICON G 001
2. ALWAYS inspect to make sure the tool is working properly. If the tool does not work properly,
remove from service and tag DEFECTIVE. DO NOT use the tool again until it has been properly
repaired.
BEFORE USING
1. ALWAYS handle the tool as if it were loaded. Before starting work, check that the tool is
unloaded and the muzzle is clear. NEVER load a tool unless it is going to be used.

Safety Precautions
1. ALWAYS know the thickness and type of base material into which you are fastening. NEVER
GUESS. Test the base material by using the Center Punch Test. The Center Punch Test is
performed by using a hammer to test drive the particular power fastener to be used into the
material. If the point penetrates easily, the material is too soft. If the point becomes blunt, the
material is too hard. If the material fractures, cracks or shatters, the material is too brittle. Test
fastenings can be made if the material shows a clear fastener impression and the fastener point
is not blunted. ALWAYS start with the lowest power load (Gray-Level 1) and proceeding with
the order shown in the lower right-hand figure above. Always wear approved goggles.

Safety Precautions
3. NEVER make fastenings in spalled or cracked areas.
2.NEVER attempt to drive power fasteners into very hard or brittle materials including, but not
limited to cast iron, glass, tile, stone, brick, or hardened steel. Materials of this type tend to
shatter and create hazard from flying particles.
4. NEVER drive power fasteners into thin or easily penetrated materials unless it is backed by
concrete or steel. When in doubt, such as when base material is concealed, conduct a Center
Punch Test (See page 6). Check continually to avoid fastening into unsuitable material,
especially in older buildings.
5. DO NOT fasten through or within 1/2" of predrilled or pre-punched holes.

Release the trigger and remove pressure on the tool while holding the muzzle against the
work surface. Again press the tool firmly against the work surface and pull the trigger. If the
tool still fails to fire, hold the tool firmly against the work surface for another 30 seconds before
unloading and carefully discarding the misfired power load into water or oil.
POWER LOADS AND FASTENERS
1. NEVER leave unfired power loads on floors or work surfaces.
4. NEVER use a powder actuated tool in an explosive or flammable atmosphere or when non-
sparking tools are required.
3. ALWAYS use the spall shield when driving directly into concrete or steel. Always wear
approved goggles.

7. NEVER use common nails or other materials as fasteners. Remington Power Fasteners are
manufactured from special steel and heat treated to produce a very hard yet ductile fastener.

8. NEVER pry a power load out of the tool. Prying can discharge the load causing serious injury
(see
Troubleshooting Guide
, page 16).
9. ALWAYS insert the power fastener first, then the power load. If work is interrupted for any
reason, ALWAYS remove the power load before removing the power fastener (see page 15,
item 7).
12
101437
WHY A POWER FASTENER HOLDS
IN CONCRETE
The compression bond of the concrete to the power fastener
accounts for the majority of the holding power. The fastener dis-
places the concrete which tries to return to its original form causing
a squeezing effect.
Maximum holding power is achieved when the depth of penetration
produces a bond on the power fastener equal to the strength of the
concrete. As a general rule, penetration should be approximately 1"
to 1 1/4" into the base concrete. Make sure the concrete is at least
three times as thick as the intended fastener penetration. NEVER
have the power fastener point protrude through the concrete.
NOTE: Concrete needs to cure for 28 days before maximum
fastening holding power will be achieved.
WHY A POWER FASTENER HOLDS IN STEEL
Holding power in steel depends on the elasticity of the steel. The
steel pushes back on the shank of the power fastener.
Drop a marble into water; the water parts, the marble continues
down, the water closes back. This is similar to the reaction when a
power fastener penetrates steel.
In steel, the point of the power fastener must penetrate completely
through for highest holding power. If the fastener does not penetrate,
the spring action of the steel pushes back on the point and tends to
force the fastener out.
Recommended applications are between 3/16-3/8" steel.
NOTE: When fastening in steel be sure the point goes through the
steel.
482-64
Why A Power Fastener Holds
482-65
13
101437
FASTENING INTO CONCRETE
The proper power fastener length can be determined by adding the
thickness of the material to be fastened and the amount of fastener
that will actually penetrate the concrete. The concrete must be three
times as thick as the intended fastener penetration. In most cases,
penetration should be approximately 1" to 1 1/4" into the base
concrete material.
482-85
Wood or Non-Metals
To Concrete
POWER LOADS
Always start with the lowest power level (gray-level 1). If the first test
fastener does not penetrate to the desired depth, move to the next
highest power level (brown-level 2). Increase until a proper fastening
is made.
IMPORTANT: Damage to the tool will result if the above instructions
are not followed (see illustrations to right and lower right).
Piston Extended
Out of Muzzle
OVERDRIVEN POWER FASTENERS
AND PISTON
An overdriven power fastener results when too strong of a power load
is used causing the piston to extend past the muzzle. Move to the next
lightest power load. Repeated overdrive will damage your tool. By
avoiding overdrive, you can extend the life of your tool considerably
and avoid costly repairs.
NOTE: NEVER fire the tool without a power fastener. This can
damage the tool and/or cause possible injury to the operator.

FASTENING INTO STEEL
The proper fastener length can be determined by adding the thickness
of the material to be fastened and the thickness of the steel. The point
of the power fastener must go completely through the steel.

Operation
1. Grasp muzzle and slide barrel forward rapidly until it stops. This sets piston into firing position
and opens the chamber.
4. Push barrel into housing to the closed position.
3. Select the proper Remington Power Load and insert into the chamber until it stops (see
Application Chart
on page 23).
482-70
2. Insert power fastener into muzzle of tool, head end first. Push the fastener until point is even
with end of tool. ALWAYS load the fastener first, then the power load.

NOTE:
Failure to start with
the lowest power
level can result in

Operation
5. Place the muzzle of tool perpendicular to work surface without tilting the tool. Push tool against
work surface until sliding action of barrel stops.
8. Should the tool fail to fire, hold the muzzle firmly against the work surface for 30 seconds.
Release the trigger and remove pressure on the tool while holding the muzzle against the
work surface. Again press the tool firmly against the work surface and pull the trigger. If the
tool still fails to fire, hold the tool firmly against the work surface for another 30 seconds before
unloading and carefully discarding the misfired power load into water or oil.
7. After fastening is made, slide barrel forward rapidly. This motion ejects the spent power load
and resets the piston for the next fastening. Make sure spent load has ejected from tool.
6. Squeeze trigger to set power fastener. Be sure to keep pressure on tool during this operation.

IMPORTANT: This tool is equipped with a
piston buffer. The buffer stops the piston before
it makes contact with the muzzle cap. This
protects the barrel and muzzle cap. Inspect and
replace the buffer on a regular basis.
