16 gauge fasteners designed to be used
with the tool. The use of fasteners that do not meet
Paslode standards could cause tool damage and will
void all warranty claims.
Loading Fasteners
STEP 1: Align the heads of the Paslode 16 ga.Finish
nails to the brad channel in the rear of the magazine
and insert one or two strips. Push the nails strips
forward.
STEP 2: Next, while applying pressure to the release
lever, pull the follower toward the rear of the
magazine until the follower passes the last strip of
fasteners. Release the lever on the follower and let
the follower push the nails forward into the nose of
the tool.
When the follower reaches the reload area, marked
on the side of the magazine, you may insert a new
strip of nails. When the follower arrow reaches the
lockout area the tool automatically locks the tool to
prevent the tool from operating. To unlock the tool,
simply reload another strip of nails.
Depth of Drive Adjustment
Disconnect the air supply.
The depth of drive adjustment is done by turning the
adjustment wheel as shown by the arrows on the side of
the tool.
Clearing a Jam
An occasional problem you may encounter is a jammed
fastener. Because of the unique design of the Paslode
Finish Nailer, clearing a jammed fastener is easy:
1. Disconnect the air supply.
2. Pull the latch, releasing front guide. Pivot front guide
forward.
3. Clear jam, and push driver blade back up to its normal
position.
4. Close front guide and latch it. Check that work
contacting element moves freely.

Lockout Feature
The purpose of this feature is to prevent needless
blank cycling, which could mar woods and dam-
age tool components. Ten (10) nails will be left in
the magazine when the follower reaches the
lockout area. When changing fastener length or
loading at the beginning of the work day, you
should inspect the magazine and nose for any
fasteners left in the tool. These nails will not be
visible unless you open the nose of the tool.
