FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

FOREWORD

Porter-Cable Model RN175 is a heavy duty, coil fed, pneumatic roofing

nailer. It is designed to install .120" diameter, 15° wire collated roofing nails

of various lengths from 7/8" to 13/4" long.

WARNING: Use approved Porter-Cable fasteners only.

POWER SOURCE

This tool is designed to operate on clean, dry, compressed air at regulated

pressures between 70 and 120 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch)

(4.8 to 8.3 BAR)

The preferred system would include a filter, a pressure regulator, and an

automatic oiler located as close to the tool as possible, within 15 ft/4.6 m is

ideal.

All compressed air contains moisture and other contaminates that are

detrimental to internal components of the tool. An air line filter will remove

most of these contaminates and significantly prolong the life of the tool. If an

in-line oiler is not available: place five or six drops of Porter-Cable Air Tool Oil

into the tool’s air inlet at the beginning of each workday.

The tool is equipped with a

" male “quick connector”. A

" male “quick

connector” is available from Porter-Cable and may be used in situations where

" supply line is not available. A

" supply line (and fittings) are required for

maximum tool performance. The tool must always be connected to the air

supply with a coupling such that all pressure is removed from the tool when the

coupling is disconnected.

DANGER: All air line components (hoses, connectors, filters, regulators,

etc.) must have a minimum working pressure rating of at least 150 PSI

(10.3 BAR) or 150% of maximum system potential, whichever is

greater

Do not connect tool to pressure which potentially exceeds 200 PSI

(13.7 BAR).

Only connect tool to air supply hose with a coupling that

automatically removes all pressure from the tool when the coupling

is disconnected.

Disconnect tool from air supply before performing maintenance,

clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area, moving tool to

another location, or handing the tool to another person.

PREPARING THE TOOL

1. After reading and understanding this entire manual, connect tool to

air supply (Fig. 18).

DANGER: Never point tool at yourself or others in work area.

Always connect tool to air supply before loading fasteners (Fig. 18).

Do not load fasteners with trigger or safety depressed.

Only use approved Porter-Cable fasteners.

Operator and others in work area MUST wear safety glasses with side

shields. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety glasses, and hearing

protection when preparing or operating the tool.

Never use a tool that is leaking air, has missing or damaged parts, or

requires repair.

2. Lift latch (A) Fig. 19, open feeder cover and magazine cover (see Fig. 20).

3. Adjust nail support (B) Fig. 21, for desired nail length: the nail support

can be lifted and rotated to three different positions that provide support for

different length roofing nails. The lowest position is used for 13/4" nails, the

center position is used for 11/4" and 11/2" nails, and the upper position is used

for 7/8" and 1" nails. Note: 3/4"nails are not available for this tool.

4. Observe fastener icon (A) Fig. 21A.

Insert fasteners (B) with points down.

IMPORTANT: Fasteners must point

in the same direction as they will be

driven.

5. Remove retainer from a coil of

roofing nails, uncoil approximately 3"

of nails, and position coil onto nail

support with the second nail (A) Fig.

22 in the feed fingers.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

USING THE TOOL WITH SELECTABLE TRIGGERING OPTIONS

Complete all steps of PREPARING THE TOOL before using the tool.

This tool is shipped from the factory with a selectable trigger set in the

“SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION” firing mode as described in number 1

below. The selectable trigger can be set for the “CONTACT ACTUATION”

firing mode as described in number 2 below;

1. To use the tool in the SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MODE

depress trigger lever pivot pin (A) Fig. 27, rotate arrow to position (B), and

release. Note: Trigger lever pivot pin is spring loaded and held in position by

locking tab (D) Fig. 27 to prevent movement during operation. To fire, grip

tool firmly to maintain control, position nose of tool onto work surface, push

tool firmly against work surface to depress safety, and then squeeze

trigger to fire a fastener, as shown at (S) Fig. 27A. This “single

sequential actuation” method provides the most accurate fastener

placement.

-OR-

2. To use the tool in the CONTACT ACTUATION MODE depress trigger

lever pivot pin (A) Fig. 27, rotate arrow to position (C), and release. Note:

Trigger lever pivot pin is spring loaded and held in position by locking tab (D)

Fig. 27 to prevent movement during operation. To fire, grip tool firmly to

maintain control, squeeze and hold trigger, push tool firmly against work

surface to depress contact safety and fire a fastener, as shown at (S)

Fig. 27A. Allow tool to recoil away from work surface as fastener is driven. If

safety element is allowed to recontact work surface before trigger is released

an unwanted fastener will be fired. The tool will fire a fastener each time the

contact safety is depressed. This method is known as “contact actuation”

and allows very fast repetitive fastener placement.

Fig. 27A

Fig. 27

IMPORTANT: A“single sequential actuation” trigger, which will limit the

tool to method number 1 only, is available free-of-charge by calling 1-800-

321-9443 in the United States and Canada or 001-731-660-9374 outside the

United States and Canada, and providing tool model number, type, serial

number, etc. For identification purposes: the single sequential actuation

trigger is red.

904461 - 09-04-02.qxd 9/23/02 8:24 AM Page 9

DANGER: Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving

fasteners to avoid accidental firing. Never carry tool with finger on

trigger: tool will fire a fastener if safety is bumped.

Never point tool at yourself or others in work area.

Never attempt to drive a fastener into material that is too hard, or at

too steep an angle, or near the edge of the workpiece. The fastener

can ricochet causing personal injury.

WARNING: Disconnect tool from air supply before performing

maintenance, clearing a jammed fastener, leaving work area,

moving tool to another location, or handing the tool to another

person.

WARNING: Clean and inspect tool daily. Carefully check for proper

operation of trigger and safety mechanism. Do Not use the tool

unless both the trigger and the safety mechanism are functional, or

if the tool is leaking air or needs any other repair.

The depth to which a fastener is driven is controlled by the depth adjustment

knob (A) Fig. 28. The depth of drive is factory adjusted to a nominal setting.

Test fire a fastener and check depth. If a change is desired, rotate the knob

(A) Fig. 28 clockwise to increase the depth of drive, rotate the knob

counterclockwise to decrease the depth of drive. The adjustment knob has

detents every 1/4turn. Test fire another fastener and check depth. Repeat as

necessary to achieve desired results.

The amount of air pressure required

will vary depending on the size of the

fastener and the material being

fastened. Experiment with the air

pressure setting to determine the

lowest setting that will consistently

perform the job at hand. Air pressure

in excess of that required can cause

premature wear and/or damage to

the tool.

CLEARING A JAMMED FASTENER

1. WARNING: Disconnect tool from air supply.

2. Open feeder cover and magazine cover. Remove any remaining fasteners

from the nailer.

3. Use a slender, soft steel rod to move the driver blade to its uppermost

position. Use needle nose pliers to

remove the jammed fastener (see

Fig. 29).

4. Follow instructions in

PREPARING THE TOOL to reload

fasteners.

5. Close the feeder cover, and

magazine cover, and secure with the

latch (See Fig. 23).
