WARNING: Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving fasteners to avoid
accidental firing. NEVER carry tool with finger on trigger. In contact mode tool will
fire a fastener if safety is bumped while trigger is depressed.
The DWFP71917 features a selectable trigger system that allows the user to choose
between the following modes of operation
Sequential Trip
The Sequential Trip requires the operator to hold the tool against the work before
pulling the trigger. This makes accurate fastener placement easier. The Sequential Trip
allows exact fastener location without the possibility if driving a second fastener on
recoil as described under Contact Trip. The Sequential Trip Tool has a positive
advantage because it will not accidentally drive a fastener if the tool is contacted
against the work surface - or anything else - while the operator is holding the trigger
pulled.
Contact Trip
The common operation procedure on “Contact Trip” tools is for the operator to contact
the work surface to actuate the trip mechanism while keeping the trigger pulled, thus
driving a fastener each time the work surface is contacted. This will allow rapid fastener
placement on many jobs. All pneumatic tools are subject to recoil when driving
fasteners. The tool may bounce, releasing the trip, and if unintentionally allowed to
re-contact the work surface with the trigger still actuated (finger still holding the trigger
pulled) an unwanted second fastener will be driven.
TO CHANGE OPERATING MODES (FIG. 1–3)
WARNING: Disconnect air line from tool and remove fasteners from magazine
before making adjustments or personal injury may result.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP ACTION
Use sequential action for intermittent nailing where very careful and accurate placement
is desired.
To operate the nailer in sequential action mode:
1. Rotate the trigger mode selector
FIG. 2
(B)
clockwise to the sequential action
position
, as shown in Figure 2.
2. Fully depress nosepiece against the work
surface.
3. Pull trigger.
4. Release trigger.
5. Lift nosepiece off work surface.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for next
application.
WARNING: The contact trip needs to be depressed followed by a trigger pull for
each fastener followed by a release of both the contact trip and trigger after each
fastener.
CONTACT TRIP ACTION
Bump/contact action is intended for rapid nailing on flat, stationary surfaces.
When using bump action, two methods are available: place actuation and
bump actuation.
Rotate the trigger mode selector (B)
FIG. 3
counterclockwise to the contact action position
, as shown in Figure 3.
To operate the tool using the
PLACE ACTUATION method:
WARNING: A fastener will fire each time
the trigger is depressed as long as the contact
trip remains depressed.
1. Depress the contact trip against the work
surface.
