Malfunction
Possible cause
Action to be taken
The fastener is not driven
flush
A rebar is located just below the
concrete surface.
▶
Drive the fastener at a different
position.
Hard material (steel, concrete).
▶
Turn the selector ring for driving
energy to increase driving
energy.
▶
Use a shorter nail.
▶
Use a nail with a higher
application limit.
▶
For concrete: Use the DX-Kwik
method (predrilling) → see the
'Direct Fastening Technology
Manual'.
Concrete spalling
Hard and/or large aggregates in
the concrete.
▶
Use the DX-Kwik method
(predrilling).
Damaged fastener head
Too much driving energy.
▶
Turn the selector ring for driving
energy to reduce driving energy.
The wrong piston has been fitted.
▶
Make sure that the correct
piston / fastener combination is
used.
The piston is damaged.
▶
Change the piston.
The nail doesn’t penetrate
deeply enough
Driving energy too low
▶
Turn the selector ring for driving
energy to increase driving
energy.
▶
Use an extra-strong cartridge.
The application limits have been
exceeded (very hard material).
▶
Use a nail with a higher
application limit.
The system is unsuitable.
▶
Use a more powerful system ,
e.g. DX 76 (PTR).
The fastener doesn’t hold in
the base material
Thin supporting steel (45 mm)
▶
Use a different energy setting.
▶
Use a nail suitable for thin
supporting steel.
Fastener breakage
(shear breakage)
Driving energy too low
▶
Turn the selector ring for driving
energy to increase driving
energy.
▶
Use an extra-strong cartridge.
The application limits have been
exceeded (very hard material).
▶
Use a more powerful system,
e.g. DX 76 (PTR), with corre-
sponding suitable fasteners.
Fastener breakage
(with deformation)
Driving energy too low
▶
Turn the selector ring for driving
energy to increase driving
energy.
▶
Use an extra-strong cartridge.
The application limits have been
exceeded (very hard material).
▶
Use a more powerful system,
e.g. DX 76 (PTR), with corre-
sponding suitable fasteners.
