FAQs
What type of nails does the GNH 18V-50 M use?
It uses 18-gauge brad nails with a thickness of 1.2mm, and lengths ranging from 16mm to 50mm.
Does this nail gun come with a battery and charger?
No, the Bosch GNH 18V-50 M is sold as a bare tool. Batteries and a charger must be purchased separately.
How many nails can the magazine hold?
The magazine has a capacity of 105 nails.
Can I use batteries from other brands?
Yes, it is compatible with the AMPShare battery alliance, allowing the use of batteries from participating brands.
What is the difference between single and contact activation?
Single activation requires pressing the contact tip and then pulling the trigger. Contact activation allows the tool to fire by simply pressing the contact tip against the surface after the trigger is held down, suitable for sequential nailing.
How do I clear a jammed nail?
The tool features a tool-free jam clearing mechanism. Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on how to safely access and clear the jam.
What is the warranty period for this tool?
Bosch Professional tools typically come with a standard warranty. Please refer to the official Bosch Professional warranty documentation for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Troubleshooting
Nail gun not firing
Check that the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Ensure the contact tip is pressed firmly against the work surface and that the dry fire lockout is not engaged (i.e., there are nails in the magazine).
Nails not fully driven or over-driven
Adjust the stepless depth setting. Increase depth for fuller driving, decrease for shallower sets. Ensure you are using the correct nail length and type.
Nail jams frequently
Ensure you are using the correct 18-gauge brad nails specified for the tool. Clean the magazine and the driving channel. Avoid forcing the tool; allow it to set the nail properly.
Tool makes unusual noises
Cease operation immediately and check for any obstructions in the firing mechanism. Refer to the user manual for troubleshooting steps or contact customer support.
