Additional Safety Instructions for Nailers
1. HAND INJURIES: Do not place your
hands near the nail point of entry. A
nail can deflect and tear through the
surface of the workpiece, puncturing
your hand or fingers.
2. COMBUSTIBLE GASES: Never con-
nect the nailer to pressurized oxygen
or other combustible gases as an air
source. Only use filtered, lubricated,
and regulated compressed air.
3. SAFE HANDLING: Never point the
nailer at others! Do not keep the trig-
ger pulled when loading fasteners,
carrying, or holding tool. Carry the
nailer only by the handle, never by
any other part. Do not carry the nailer
by the air hose. Disconnect the nailer
from the air hose when going up and
down ladders.
6. HOSE USAGE: Make sure your air
hose is designed for the tool in use, is
in good condition, and is long enough
to reach your work without stretching.
However, an overly long air hose in
the work area may be a tripping haz-
ard.
7. OPERATING QUESTIONS: If you
are not sure about the intended oper-
ation, stop using the nailer. Seek
formal training.
8. CLEANING: Never use gasoline or
other flammable liquids to clean the
nailer; vapors in the nailer will ignite
by a spark and cause it to explode.
9. MAINTENANCE: Always disconnect
air from the nailer when servicing or
installing nails. During maintenance,
a nailer connected to air may fire acci-
dentally, causing serious personal
injury.
4. MODIFICATIONS: DO NOT modify
this tool or bypass the safety nose
mechanism.
5. CHECK VALVE: Do not use a check
valve or any other fitting that allows
air to remain in the tool.
10. COMPRESSED AIR RATING: Do
not connect the nailer to compressed
air that exceeds 120 PSI.

Never point these nailers at yourself
or another person! Always pay atten-
tion to the direction these nailers are
pointed. Use these tools with respect
and caution to lessen the possibil-
ity of operator or bystander injury.
Ignoring this warning may result in
serious personal injury.
Read the manual before operation.
Become familiar with these nailers,
their safety instructions, and their
operation before beginning any work.
Serious personal injury may result if
safety or operational information is
not understood or followed.
Nailer accidents routinely happen
while moving the gun to another
location, such as up ladders, to
another room, or even another job
site. Always disconnect the gun
immediately after use and never
transport the gun while connected
to the air—even if the air compres-
sor is disconnected from its power
source!
No list of safety guidelines can be
complete. Every shop environment
is different. Always consider safe-
ty first, as it applies to your indi-
vidual working conditions. Use this
and other tools with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result
in serious personal injury, damage to
equipment or poor work results.
Operating these nailers can propel
objects into the air, causing imme-
diate eye damage. To protect your-
self, always wear American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) approved
safety glasses or goggles when
operating this equipment. In addi-
tion, these nailers discharge at up
to 85-90 decibels. To protect your
hearing, always wear ANSI approved
ear protection when operating these
nailers.

Compressed Air
System
The Model H8232 is designed to be oper-
ated at the following air pressures using
clean, dry, regulated, compressed air:
Nailer
Operating Air Pressure
Framing ................................... 80–110 PSI
Finish....................................... 60–100 PSI
Palm ........................................ 70–100 PSI
Exceeding the maximum permissible
operating pressure may damage the
nailers and cause them to malfunc-
tion. To protect yourself from per-
sonal injury, DO NOT allow the air
pressure to exceed the recommended
pressure for these nailers!
DO NOT exceed the 120 PSI maximum
operating pressure for your nailer.
Before using your new nailers, regulate the
air pressure to find the optimum setting
within the specified operating range. Start
by testing the nailer at a low setting, then
increase the air pressure as needed for
satisfactory results.
Check the current Grizzly catalog for avail-
ability of this unit. If you plan on install-
ing a filter/lubricator/regulator unit in your
compressed air system, always follow the
connection instructions that come with
the unit.
An in-line filter/lubricator/regulator unit can
be installed, as depicted in Figure 2.
This filter/lubricator/regulator unit will
protect your tool from damaging water
build-up, allow you to adjust and maintain
constant air pressure to your tool, and
save you the inconvenience of having to
manually lubricate your tool every time
you use it.

Framing/Finish
Nailer Safety Nose
Mechanism
Safety Check #2
A safety mechanism on the nose of the
framing/finish nailer protects against acci-
dental firing. When the trigger is pressed,
the nailer will not fire until the safety nose
mechanism is depressed.
1. Lift the nailer from the scrap piece of
wood so that the safety nose is not
depressed, point the nailer down and
away from yourself and others, then
pull the trigger.
Before you use your nailers for the first
time, perform these safety checks to
ensure the safety nose mechanisms are
operating properly.
— If the nailer does not fire when the
trigger is pulled without the safety
nose mechanism being depressed,
then the nailer is working properly.
Safety Check #1
— If the nailer does fire when you
do this, immediately disconnect the
nailer from the air supply and call
Grizzly Technical Support at (570)
546-9663 for help.
1. DISCONNECT NAILER FROM THE
AIR SUPPLY!
2. Make sure the magazine is empty and
contains no nails.
3. Make sure the trigger and the safety
nose mechanism move up and down
without sticking.
The safety mechanism is a mechanical
device that can fail. Never rely on this
mechanism as an excuse to point the
framing/finish nailer at yourself or any
bystanders. Serious injury may occur.
4. Connect the nailer to the air supply.
5. Without pressing the trigger, depress
the safety nose mechanism against a
scrap piece of wood that is clean and
free of any knots, nails, or other foreign
objects.
DO NOT attempt to modify or bypass
the safety nose mechanism to make
the framing/finish nailer fire without
pushing the safety nose down.
— If the nailer does not fire, then the
safety nose mechanism is working
correctly. Proceed to Safety Check
#2.
— If the nailer does fire when you
do this, immediately disconnect the
nailer from the air supply and call
Grizzly Technical Support at (570)
546-9663 for help.

3. Depress the safety nose mechanism
against your workpiece.
4. Before pulling the trigger, make sure
your free hand and other body parts
are positioned out of the way of a
potential path of a nail in case of deflec-
tion.
Note: Deflection is caused when
grain irregularities, knots, or foreign
objects inside the wood cause the
nail to change its path, resulting in
the nail puncturing the surface of the
workpiece, as shown in Figure 7.

(finish nailer).
Besides damaging your workpiece,
deflection can cause injury if your free
hand is in the path of the deflecting
nail.
4. Slide the nails all the way down to the
nose of the nailer.
5. Release the magazine pusher by pull-
ing back on the pusher and pushing in
on the catch lever.
Operating
If you have not read the safety instruc-
tions in this manual, do not operate the
nailer.

4. Hold the nailer in place until the sliding
depth guide is completely depressed
up into the nailer and the nail is fully
hammered into the workpiece.
3. Move the nose tip away from the nail-
er body to decrease penetration, and
toward the nailer body to increase
penetration.
Note: You can stop the nailer at any
time by simply lifting it away from
the nail. This is useful if you do not
want to countersink the nail into the
workpiece.
Note: The rubber nose tip can be
removed to increase nail penetration
even further.
If the nailer is allowed to continue
hammering until it stops by itself, it will
countersink the nail to an approximate
depth of 2mm or 5⁄64".

CLEANING & LUBRICATION
Cleaning
Lubricating
Use non-flammable solvent to clean the
nose assembly of the nailer. Always be
sure that the nailer is dry before using it
again.
Standard pneumatic tool oil has been
included with your new Grizzly nailer to
help maintain its useful life. Place two to
six drops of oil in the nailer air inlet (as
shown in Figure 12) before every use, or
after 2 hours of continuous use.
Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc. into
the air connectors or into the body of the
nailer; this may result in leaks and damage
to the nailer and the air couplings.
Wipe off any excess oil near the nailer
exhaust to avoid dust build-up. When the
oil that was included with the nailer has
been completely used, replace it with
Grizzly Model G2820 Pneumatic Tool Oil.
Another option to manual oiling would be
to install a lubricator in your air compres-
sor line. If your air compressor line already
has a lubricator, then regular lubrication
of your nailer will not be necessary. Just
make sure there is always oil in the lubri-
cator.
Never clean this tool with gasoline
or other flammable liquids. Vapors
in the tool may ignite, causing the
tool to explode. Ignoring this warning
may lead to serious personal injury or
even death!
