Remington power hammer manual

Then remove the tool, eject the load and safely discard the misfired load into water or oil. Page 12 4 being the high- est power level.

Always start with the lowest power level gray-level 1 and increase until a proper fasten- ing is made. Always use Remington powder loads or loads manufac- tured to specifications outlined in the P. NEVER use com- mon nails. Remington Power Fas- teners are manufactured from spe- cial steel and heat treated to pro- duce a very hard, yet ductile fas- tener. NEVER pry a load out of the cham- ber.

Move to the next lightest powder load. Repeated overdrive will damage your tool. Page Loading And Firing Grab the muzzle and pull forward until it stops. This sets the piston and opens the chamber area. Insert the proper Remington Pow- der Load into the chamber, while holding the muzzle downward. Be sure to keep holding the muzzle downward and away from you. Page Piston Overdrive Operation After the fastening is made, remove the tool from the work surface.

Grab the barrel and pull forward rapidly. This ejects the spent load and sets the piston in the firing position. Other types of powder loads will cause load-ejection problems.

Check continually to avoid fastening into unsuitable material, especially in older buildings. When fastening into masonry walls, always drive into horizontal mortar joints, NEVER into vertical mortar joints.

Should the tool fail to fire, hold the muzzle firmly against the work surface for 30 seconds. Then remove the tool, eject the load and safely discard the misfired load into water or oil. NEVER use a powder actuated tool in an explosive or flammable atmosphere or when non sparking tools are required.

NEVER leave unfired powder loads on floors or work surfaces. Remington Powder Loads are available in four power levels with gray 1 being the lowest power level and yellow 4 being the highest power level.

Always start with the lowest power level gray-level 1 and increase until a proper fastening is made. Always use Remington powder loads or loads manufactured to specifications outlined in the P. NEVER use powder loads in firearms. NEVER carry fasteners or other hard objects in the same pocket or container with powder loads. A color blind person must take extra precautions to prevent the chance of mixing the powder loads of various levels. Fasteners are a permanently installed fixture.

An act of demolition is required for their removal. Appropriate safety precautions must be taken. G G 13 Safety Precautions 7. NEVER use fasteners longer than NEVER use common nails. Remington Power Fasteners are manufactured from special steel and heat treated to produce a very hard, yet ductile fastener. NEVER pry a load out of the chamber. Prying can discharge the load causing serious injury. Make sure the concrete is at least three times as thick as the intended fastener penetration.

Never have the fastener point protude thru the concrete. NOTE: Concrete needs to cure for 28 days before maximum fastening holding power will be achieved.

STEEL: In steel, the point of the fastener must penetrate completely through for highest holding power. If not, the spring action of the steel pushes back on the point and tends to force the fastener out. Move to the next lightest powder load. Repeated overdrive will damage your tool. By avoiding overdrive, you can extend the life of your tool considerably.

Insert the proper fastener into the muzzle, round metal head first. Push fastener until the point is even with the end of the muzzle. Grab the muzzle and pull forward until it stops. This sets the piston and opens the chamber area. Insert the proper Remington Powder Load into the chamber, while holding the muzzle downward.

Be sure to keep holding the muzzle downward and away from you. The powder load will not seat fully. Push the barrel into the housing until it stops and hold in the closed position keeping the muzzle pointed down. This keeps the powder load from falling out of the chamber. Hold the grip with one hand and push down, compressing the spring. The groove around the barrel and outside of the housing at the chamber area MUST line up as shown for the tool to operate properly.

Hold the hammer as close as you can to the tool head to improve your accuracy. For best results, work at a level below shoulder height. If the powder load does not fire with the first blow, wait 30 seconds, eject the powder load and start over again. After the fastening is made, remove the tool from the work surface.

Grab the barrel and pull forward rapidly. This ejects the spent load and sets the piston in the firing position. Place the muzzle end of the tool against wooden work surface and hold grip with one hand.
