Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Causes

Likely Solutions

Insufficient

fastener depth.

1. Incorrect tool depth setting.
2. Not enough air pressure.

3. Incorrect lubrication or not

enough lubrication.

4. Blocked air inlet screen (if

equipped).

5. Mechanism contaminated.

1. Adjust depth setting, if available.
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 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 in air supply

as stated in Initial Set Up: Air Supply.

Fasteners drive

too deeply.

1. Incorrect tool depth setting.
2. Too much air pressure.

1. Adjust depth setting, if available.
2. Reduce air supply pressure (PSI).

Tool cycles

without firing

fastener.

1. Jammed fastener.

2. Tool empty.
3. Incorrect fasteners used.
4. Canister dirty or not lubricated

properly.

5. Insufficient air flow.

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 canister 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 maximum air

pressure.

Frequent

jamming.

Incorrect fastener type.

Confirm fastener diameter, type, length, angle,

and collation type. Correct as needed.

Severe air

leakage.

(Slight air leakage

is normal,

especially on

older tools.)

1. Cross-threaded housing

components.

2. Loose housing.

3. Damaged valve or housing.
4. Dirty, worn or damaged valve.

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.

Follow all safety precautions whenever diagnosing or servicing the tool.

Disconnect air supply before service.
