manual abstract
Assembly The ACALN Allnailer® is packed fully assembled. Adjusting the depth of nail penetration 1. The depth adjustment dial can be set to 4 different positions in order to vary the depth of nail penetration as follows: Depth setting values (approximate only) Position Depth 1 Nail head underflush by 1mm 2 Nail head level with the surface 3 Nail head 5mm proud from surface and suitable for hanging heavy objects (ensure that the mounting surface is capable of taking the weight loading) 4 Nail head 10mm proud from surface and suitable for hanging lighter objects (ensure that the mounting surface is capable of taking the weight loading) 2. Press in then turn the depth adjustment dial (5) to the appropriate level (Fig. B). Installing the non- marking jaw protector The Allnailer® comes supplied with a non marking jaw protector (7) designed to protect the workpiece surface from the jaw hammer impacts. This is the ideal accessory when using the Allnailer® as a finisher nailer (i.e. on decking, when building furniture, fitting skirting boards or architraves). Installing the non marking jaw protector (7) is easy, just follow the following steps; 1. Slide the non marking jaw protector (7) directly over the nail gripping jaws (3). Make sure that the gripping jaws (3) line up with the non marking jaw protector (7) (Fig. C). 2. Secure the non marking jaw protector (7) by pressing and positively engaging the cover and locking it over the side ribbed section of the nail gripping jaws (3) (Fig. D). Note. When using the non marking jaw protector (7) the nail will not finish flush. Note. The nail depth adjustment gauge (5) has been set in accordance with the nail gripping jaws and not with the non marking jaw protector (7). Hence the depth adjustment dial gauge and pre set driving capacity does not apply when using the non marking jaw protector (7). We recommended that when using the non marking jaw protector (7) that you trial the depth adjustment gauge (5) settings on a test piece of timber prior to applying it to the workpiece, then set the depth adjustment gauge (5) accordingly. B A C D Operation WARNING. Make sure your finger is not on the trigger switch (1) when loading nails into the tool (Fig. E). Safety switch 1. The nailer is protected against accidental operation by the safety switch (6). When this switch is in its mid position the trigger switch (1) is inoperable (Fig. F). DANGER. Always set the safety switch (6) to the mid position when not actually using the nailer. Ensure that the safety switch (6) is pressed in. You can press this switch from either side. Loading a nail 1. Hold the nailer in the operating position and use your thumb to press the jaw release button (4) (Fig. G). 2. Insert the nail, head first, between the jaws (3) as far as it will go and then release the jaws by taking your thumb off the jaw release button (4) (Fig. H). Note. The nailer accepts nails from 40mm (1 5/8”) to 150mm (6”) long. The shank can be oval, round or serrated. The head must not be more than 10mm (3/8”) in diameter. You are now ready to use the nailer. Note. This product is designed for intermittent use. The recommended operational duration is 10 seconds on and 10 seconds off. Please operate accordingly. Driving a nail 1. Once the nail is inserted in the jaws and button (4) is released, the nail can be driven into the workpiece. 2. Hold the tool such that the nail is guided into the workpiece by the automatic hammering process (Fig. I). 3. Squeeze the trigger switch (1) (Fig. J). 4. When the nail has been driven to the required depth, release trigger switch (1) and either return the safety switch (6) to its mid position or use the release button (4) to open the jaws and insert another nail. Note. It is best to trial the depth adjustment setting using the same type of nail on a scrap piece of wood of the same type as the workpiece. It may be necessary to change the depth setting to suit the circumstances. Note. The nail can be driven between the perpendicular and 45°. WARNING. To avoid personal injury, keep your fingers away from the trigger switch (1) until you are ready to drive a nail. Do not point the nailer at anyone when a nail is loaded into the nailer. E I F J G H Variable speed The variable speed feature enables you to select the best speed for a particular application. The farther you squeeze the trigger, the faster the tool will operate. Use lower speeds for starting and when hammering large nails into hard wood. Increase the speed to suit the application (Fig. K). Note. It is recommended to use the variable speed feature for short periods at a time. Do not continuously operate the tool at different speeds. It may damage the switch. Maintenance and repair General Inspection Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time (Fig. L). Maintenance WARNING. Always ensure that the tool is switched off and that the power cord is removed from the power supply before making any adjustm...
