remove pressure on the tool while holding the muzzle
against the work surface. Again press the tool firmly against
the work surface and pull the trigger. If the tool still fails to
fire, hold the tool firmly against the work surface for another
30 seconds before unloading and carefully discarding the
misfired power load into water or oil.
