1. If energy fluctuations occur (evidenced by irregularities in fastener penetration depth).
2. If cartridge misfires occur (the cartridge is not fired).
3. If the tool becomes noticeably less easy to operate.
▶
If the required contact pressure increases noticeably.
▶
If the trigger resistance increases.
▶
If the selector ring for driving energy has become difficult to turn.
▶
If the cartridge strip is difficult to remove.
4. If the fastener counter indicates that a tool service is necessary.

1. The piston must be replaced in the following cases:
▶
The piston is broken.
▶
The piston is badly worn or chipped (e.g. a segment of more than 90° of the circumferential
ring-shaped elevation at the piston tip broken away)
▶
The piston rings are cracked or missing.
▶
The piston is bent (check by rolling the piston on a smooth, flat surface).
2. The buffer must be replaced in the following cases:
▶
The metal ring of the buffer is loose or broken.
