gcN150/gcN-MEP gAS-AcTUATEd TOOL

CHANGING THE FASTENER GUIDE:

With the magazine attached, the GCN-MEP tool can fire GDP series pins. The GDP pins have 

a smaller head diameter than the single shot preassembled pins, which requires changing the 

fastener guide. The fastener guide can easily be changed without tools, in seconds.

1. Remove the yellow plastic retaining clip 

that hold the fastener guide.

2. Slide the single-shot fastener guide off, 

and replace with the fastener guide for the 

GDP pins (fastener guide for GDP pins, 

is included in the magazine kit, model 

number MEP-MAG1KT).
