FASTENER POSITIONING ADJUSTMENT
The fastener positi on can be adjusted to accommodate 1/4” - 7/16” thicknesses
of fl ooring by way of the adjustment knobs located on the positi oning shoe. The
shoe adjustment feature provides close control of the fastener positi oning to reduce
occurrence of split tongues or dimples in the fl ooring surface.
First set the air pressure for consistent drive in the specifi c work as described on
page 4, then use the shoe adjustment knobs to set the desired positi on of drive. The
fastener should be positi oned so that it enters the verti cal face of the fl ooring at the
point where the tongue meets the verti cal face.

1. Loosen both Knobs until the Foot and Front Guide move freely.
2. Engage the Nose with the Tongue of Flooring.
