Warning: Safety PrecautionsIMPORTANT: Read these operating instructions carefully and com-pletely before trying to operate or service this tool. Improper use ofthis tool can cause serious injury or death from firing fastener intobody or from flying debris. We expressly disclaim any liability for anyinjury to persons or damage to property which result from your failureto take the precautions contained in this manual.
WARNING: This tool is designed only for use by qualified operators.Qualification is obtained through a thorough understanding of the SafetyWarnings and operating instructions as defined in this operating manual.NOTE: The labor regulations of many states require that the operator of thistool on a job site be thoroughly trained and certified for competence priorto operating this tool. For certification procedures, call: DESA Tool Division,1-800-626-2237 (USA) or 1-905-826-8010 (Canada).
1. Always handle the tool as if it were loaded. Before starting work, check that thetool is unloaded and the muzzle is clear. Never load a tool unless it is going tobe used.
2. Always inspect to make sure the tool is working properly. If the tool does notwork properly, remove from service and tag “DEFECTIVE.” Do not use the toolagain until it has been properly repaired.
3. Operators and bystanders must ALWAYS wear goggles and ear protectionwhich meet or exceed the accepted standards for adequate protection in yourcountry. In the USA, refer to ANSI standards. In Canada, refer to CSA standards.

KNOW YOUR FASTENING BASE MATERIAL

482-26
CENTERPUNCH TEST482-27
1. Always know the thickness and type of base material into which you arefastening. 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 theparticular power fastener to be used into the material. If the point penetrateseasily, the material is too soft. If the point becomes blunt, the material is toohard. If the material fractures, cracks or shatters, the material is too brittle. Testfastenings can be made if the material shows a clear fastener impression andthe fastener point is not blunted. Always start with the lowest power load(Green-Level 3) and proceeding with the order shown in the lower right-handfigure above. Operators and bystanders must always wear goggles and earprotection which meet or exceed the accepted standards for adequate protec-tion in your country. In the USA, refer to ANSI standards. In Canada, refer toCSA standards.

Safety Precautions
3. Never make fastenings in spalled or cracked areas.
2. Never attempt to drive power fasteners into very hard or brittle materialsincluding, 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 isbacked by concrete or steel. When in doubt, such as when base material isconcealed, conduct a Center Punch Test (See page 6). Check continually toavoid fastening into unsuitable material, especially in older buildings.
5. Do not fasten through or within 1/2" of predrilled or pre-punched holes.

2. Should the tool fail to fire, hold the muzzle firmly against the work surface for30 seconds. Release the trigger and remove pressure on the tool whileholding the muzzle against the work surface. Again press the tool firmlyagainst the work surface and pull the trigger. If the tool still fails to fire, holdthe tool firmly against the work surface for another 30 seconds beforeadvancing the power load strip. Use remaining loads in strip. Discard powerload strip into water or oil.

Safety Precautions
6. Power fasteners are a permanently installed fixture. An act of demolition isrequired for their removal. Appropriate safety precautions must be taken.
9. If work is interrupted for any reason, remove the power load strip beforeremoving the power fastener.
8. Never pry a power load out of the strip. Prying can discharge the load causingserious injury (See Troubleshooting Guide, page 24). Never attempt to reloadused strips.

Why A Power Fastener Holds
WHY A POWER FASTENER HOLDSIN CONCRETEThe compression bond of the concrete to the powerfastener accounts for the majority of the holding power.The fastener displaces the concrete which tries to returnto its original form causing a squeezing effect.
Maximum holding power is achieved when the depth ofpenetration produces a bond on the power fastener equalto the strength of the concrete. As a general rule, pene-tration should be approximately 1" to 1 1/4" into the baseconcrete. Make sure the concrete is at least three timesas thick as the intended fastener penetration. Never havethe power fastener point protrude through the concrete.
NOTE: Concrete needs to cure for 28 days beforemaximum fastening holding power will be achieved.
WHY A POWER FASTENER HOLDS IN STEELHolding power in steel depends on the elasticity of thesteel. The steel pushes back on the shank of the powerfastener.
Drop a marble into water; the water parts, the marblecontinues down, the water closes back. This is similar tothe reaction when a power fastener penetrates steel.
In steel, the point of the power fastener must penetratecompletely through for highest holding power. If thefastener does not penetrate, the spring action of the steelpushes back on the point and tends to force the fastenerout.
Recommended applications are between 3/16-3/8"steel.
NOTE: When fastening in steel be sure the point goesthrough the steel.

G 018
Selecting Power Fastenersand Power loads
FASTENING INTO CONCRETEThe proper power fastener length can be determined byadding the thickness of the material to be fastened and theamount of fastener that will actually penetrate the con-crete. The concrete must be three times as thick as theintended fastener penetration. In most cases, penetrationshould be approximately 1" to 1 1/4" into the base concretematerial.
FASTENING INTO STEELThe proper fastener length can be determined by addingthe thickness of the material to be fastened and thethickness of the steel. The point of the power fastenermust go completely through the steel.
POWER LOADSAlways start with the lowest power level (green-level 3). Ifthe first test fastener does not penetrate to the desireddepth, move to the next highest power level (yellow-level4). Increase until a proper fastening is made.IMPORTANT: Damage to the tool will result if the aboveinstructions are not followed (see illustrations to right andlower right).
OVERDRIVEN POWER FASTENERSAND PISTONAn overdriven power fastener results when too strong ofa power load is used causing the piston to extend past themuzzle. Move to the next lightest power load. Repeatedoverdrive will damage your tool. By avoiding overdrive,you can extend the life of your tool considerably and avoidcostly repairs.
NOTE: Never fire the tool without a power fastener. Thiscan damage the tool and/or cause possible injury to theoperator.

3. Select the proper power level of power load strips. Always insert power loadstrips through bottom of handle. Push power load strip in until even with bottomof handle.
NOTE:Failure to start withthe lowest powerlevel can result inoverdrive conditionand will result indamage to tool (See page 13).

Operation
5. Squeeze trigger to set power fastener. Be sure to keep pressure on tool duringthis operation.
7. Should the tool fail to fire, hold the muzzle firmly against the work surface for30 seconds. Release the trigger and remove pressure on the tool whileholding the muzzle against the work surface. Again press the tool firmlyagainst the work surface and pull the trigger. If the tool still fails to fire, holdthe tool firmly against the work surface for another 30 seconds beforeadvancing the power load strip. Use remaining loads in strip. Discard powerload strip into water or oil.

6. Grasp muzzle cap and slide barrel forward rapidly until it stops. Push barrelassembly back into tool to the closed position. This advances the power loadstrip and resets the piston for the next fastening.WARNING: Do not depress barrel assembly past the closed positionwhen loading new power fastener. Live power load is in firing position.
