flash continually if a nail becomes jammed in the nosepiece
(see Clearing a Jammed Nail).
Stall Release (Fig. A)
If the nailer is used in harder wood where all available energy

proceed to Clearing a Jammed Nail. If the unit continues to
stall please review the material and fastener length to be sure
that it is not too rigorous an application.
