Troubleshooting Guide
I.
The fastener is jammed inside the nosepiece.
A) If cycling the tool does not clear the jammed fastener, remove the
nosepiece completely. The jammed fastener can then be removed
from the other end.
B) DO NOT strike the tool against the substrate to dislodge the fastener.
C) If the fastener remains permanently jammed, please contact the
appropriate support personnel.
II.
The tool does not fire.
A) Check if you are fastening to the appropriate substrate material.
B) Check the nosepiece is free of debris and reset the tool.
C) Check if the correct adapter is being used (Refer to Adapter Usage
Table on Page 6).
D) Ensure the tool is assembled properly according to the manual and
instructions.
E) Before firing, make sure the nosepiece is perpendicular (right angle) to
the material surface. The tool is not designed to fasten at other angles.
F) Check if the firing pin is piercing the NITROSET pill. If it's piercing the
pill and not firing, then check for damage to the firing pin. Replace
firing pin if damaged.
G) If the tool still does not actuate after checking all the above, follow the
instructions (Page 14) and disassemble to check for broken parts.
