PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
When the lever assy (1) is depressed, the pressurized air inside the tool is directed to the front side of the piston (3) thus moving it
to the rear of the head cylinder assy (2), forcing the air from the back side of the piston (3) to be exhausted from the standard
exhaust port on side of tool (see page 5). The internal components of the attached nose assembly are simultaneously moving with
the piston (3) to start the fastener installation. When complete, the lever assy (1) is released directing the air to the back side of the
piston (3) reversing the sequence.

AIR EXHAUST
Air is exhausted through the standard exhaust port on the side of the tool. To redirect air exhaust to rear of tool, remove set
screw (401816) from rear exhaust hole. If changing exhaust back to side, we recommend applying Vibra-tite® to set screw
(401816) before installation.
