When you put air to it, the unit is energized. Stand the nail on end like normal and slide the barrel over the head of the nail.
Once it bottoms out on the head of the nail, just put the palm of your hand on the large flat surface that is now facing up. Apply pressure with your hand and the fun starts. When you push hard enough it will start pounding. Just a couple warnings. You have to hold the nail in place with the other hand until it starts pounding. Don't hold it real tight or it will sting for a while. And it only takes about 2 seconds to drive a 16 penny nail completely into a 4 by 4. So it will go fast. Remember to start the nail as straight as possible or it will bend just like it was hit wrong with a hammer, only faster. Nails with heads aren't so hard to work with. Finish nails take a special tip or they will walk to the side and get stuck inside the barrel.
