CLEARING A JAM
A typical problem you may encounter is having a
jammed fastener. Because of the unique design of
the GypFast (G2) tool, clearing a jammed fastener
is easy. Damage to parts and/or excessive
accumulation of dirt are principle causes of
jams. If a jam should occur, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the battery and
fuel cell.
2. Open the magazine, and
remove all fasteners.
Jammed fasteners should
be clearly visible; check
inside the nose for wedged
fasteners and remove.
3. Clean the magazine, nose
and all associated parts.
4. If the tool continues to jam, or you cannot clear
a particularly difficult jam, have it serviced by
an Authorized Ramset distributor.
If you find that the tool’s Fan does not operate
after clearing a jam:
Check the condition of your Battery.
If the Handle LED indicator emits a constant
red glow when depressing the tool, recharge
the Battery.
MAINTENANCE
COLD WEATHER OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
Keep the tool in a warm area until you are ready
to use it. If the tool is already cold, bring it into a
warm area, and allow it to warm up before using it.
DO NOT OPERATE THE TOOL WHEN IT IS COLD
UNLESS FASTENERS ARE BEING DRIVEN INTO
A WORKPIECE.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
The external parts may be cleaned as follows:
1. Remove the battery and fuel cell.
2. Open the magazine and remove all fasteners.
3. Remove all dirt and grit from the magazine and
nose of the tool.
4. Clean the outside of the tool using a soft cloth
and a mild degreasant like paraffin.
CAUTION
Never use highly volatile solvents such as gasoline
to clean the tool. Do not allow any solvent to
enter the interior of the tool. Solvents may cause
O-rings to deteriorate, and possibly swell, causing
a tool to malfunction, and creating a possible
safety hazard.
5. Important: It is extremely important for safety
reasons that all dirt and foreign materials be
removed from around the safety yoke, and the
safety yoke compression spring. The safety
yoke must be free to move in and out without
sticking or binding. The spring must positively
return the safety yoke to its starting position
whenever the safety yoke is released from
being held in its position.
EXTERNAL LUBRICATION
Lubricate the areas where the adjustable nosepiece
slides with General Electric Company “VERSILUBE”
silicone lubricating grease G-322L or an equivalent.
Do not use WD40.
MALFUNCTIONS
Be alert for tool problems. A malfunctioning tool
must be immediately withdrawn from use and
not used again until it has been repaired by a
qualified service technician. Operating a tool
which malfunctions is unsafe. Stop using the
tool, and have it repaired.
