1. Open the magazine:

Pull down door latch and swing door/magazine cover outward. Fig.A

2. Check Adjustment:

The nailer must be set for the length of nail to be

used. Nails will not feed smoothly if the magazine

is not correctly adjusted. The magazine contains an

adjustable nail platform on which the nail coil rests.

The nail platform can be moved up and down to three nail settings.

To change setting pull up on the post and twist to the correct step. Fig.B

1-1/4” - 1-1/2” (32-40mm) nails - use upper step

1-3/4” - 2” (45-50mm) nails - use middle step

2-1/4” - 2-1/2” (55-65mm) nails - use bottom step

3. Load the coil of nails:

Place the coil of nails over the post in the magazine. Uncoil enough nails

to reach the feed pawl. Place the first nail in front of the front tooth on the

feed pawl, in the driver channel. The nail heads must be in the slot in the

nose. Fig. C and Fig. D

NOTE: Use only nails recommended by Bostitch for N66BC series nailers or

nails which meet Bostitch specifications.

4. Swing cover closed:

To aid in the feeding of plastic collated nails the tab on the cover should

be repositioned. To do so apply pressure to the top center of the tab and

simultaneously apply pressure to the bottom outer edge of the tab until

it rests on the top outer brim of the cover. Swing the door/magazine cover

closed. Check that the latch engages when released. (If it does not engage,

check that the nail heads are in the slot in the nose.)

5. Removal of plastic strip:

As nails are driven, the plastic strip will feed out of the tool. When sufficient

strip has been fed out, it can be torn away by pulling against the tear edge

in the nose. Fig. E
