Temperature Protection Mode
When the tool is turned on at extreme Cold/Hot
temperature ranges the tool will enter temperature
protection mode to avoid damage to the tool. The
tool will not function in this mode and the LED will
illuminate blue (cold) or red (hot). Once the tem-
perature is suitable, the tool and LEDs will return to
normal operation.
Reload Indicator
To indicate that the magazine is almost empty of
staples (about 4-5 left), the workpiece contact will
not compress, preventing operation under usual
pressure. Install more staples to continue working.
WARNING
NEVER wedge or hold back the
workpiece contact mechanism
during operation of the tool. Never attempt to
clear a jammed workpiece contact by grasping
the discharge area of the tool. Doing so could
result in serious injury.
To avoid serious injury, do not attempt to prevent
the recoil by holding the tool too rmly against
the work. Keep face and body away from the
tool. During normal use, the tool will recoil im-
mediately after driving a staple. This is a normal
function of the tool. Restriction to the recoil can
result in a second staple being driven when the
tool is in Contact Actuation mode. Grip the handle
rmly, let the tool do the work, and do not place
a second hand on top of the tool.
Setting the Depth of Drive
The depth of drive can be adjusted to account for
the size of the staple and the workpiece material.
WARNING
Know what is behind your
workpiece. A staple could travel
through the workpiece and out the other side,
striking a bystander and causing serious injury.
Lower the depth of drive to prevent the staple
from being pushed all the way through the
workpiece.

2. Remove battery pack.
3. WARNING! Always point
the tool away from yourself
and others when making
adjustments. Failure to do so
could result in injury.
4. Turn the depth selector left or right to increase or
decrease the driving depth.
5. Repeat until desired depth is reached.
Clearing a Jammed Staple
Most jams are caused by a staple or part of a staple
wedging between the driver blade and the staple
guide. Staple strips with an incorrect collation angle
or the wrong staple gauge may cause continuous
jamming. To clear the jam:
1. Remove battery pack.
2. WARNING! Always point the tool away from
yourself and others when installing or removing
staples. Failure to do so could result in injury.
3. Remove staple strip from magazine.
4. Pull down on the jam latch and pull away from the tool.
5. Remove the staple and other debris (use needle-
nose pliers if necessary).
6. Close jam latch.
7. Follow the steps under "Required Daily Testing"
before restarting the work.
