Likely Solutions
1. Adjust depth setting.
2. Check for loose connections and make sure that air
supply is providing enough air pressure (PSI) to the
tool's air inlet. Do not exceed 120 PSI maximum
air pressure.
3. Lubricate using air tool oil and grease according to
directions.
4. Clean air inlet screen of buildup.
5. Have qualified technician clean and lubricate
mechanism. Install in-line filter to the air supply as
stated in Initial Set Up: Air Supply.
1. Adjust depth setting, if available.
2. Reduce air supply pressure (PSI).
1. Clear jammed fastener according to Clearing
Jams instructions.
2. Fill with correct fasteners.
3. Empty, then fill with correct fasteners.
4. Clean and lubricate magazine and pusher.
5. Check for loose connections and make sure that
air supply is providing enough air flow (CFM) and
pressure (PSI) to the tool's air inlet. Do not exceed
120 PSI maximum air pressure.
Confirm fastener diameter, type, length, angle, and
collation type. Correct as needed.
1. Check for incorrect alignment and uneven gaps. If
cross-threaded, disassemble and replace damaged
parts before use.
2. Tighten housing assembly. If housing cannot tighten
properly, internal parts may be misaligned.
3. Replace damaged components.
4. Clean or replace valve assembly.
