Troubleshooting
Nailer jams or misfires.
Check the nailer for obstructions. Clear any jammed nails. Ensure the nail strip is properly loaded and aligned. If the problem persists, consult your nailer's manual.
Nails not driving flush.
Increase the air pressure on your nailer (if applicable), or apply more pressure when driving the nails. Check for any obstructions preventing full nail penetration. For hard materials, consider pre-drilling.
