Sequential Firing
The S200BN typically operates in sequential firing mode, meaning the safety contact must be depressed against the workpiece before the trigger can be pulled to drive a fastener. This enhances safety by preventing accidental firing.
Eliminació d’embús
If a brad jams in the tool:
- Immediately disconnect the tool from the air supply.
- Open the magazine and remove any remaining fasteners.
- Locate the jammed brad in the nosepiece. Use pliers or a small screwdriver to carefully remove the brad. Do not force it.
- Inspect the nosepiece for any damage before reloading and reconnecting the air supply.

- Use only non-detergent pneumatic tool oil. Do not use motor oil or other lubricants.
Neteja
- Keep the tool clean and free of debris. Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior.
- Periodically clean the magazine to ensure smooth feeding of fasteners.
Air Filter and Regulator
- Ensure your air compressor system has a functioning air filter and regulator to prevent moisture and debris from entering the tool.
- Drain moisture from your air compressor tank daily.
