Here is the operation manual for that model.
It tells you how to adjust the depth of your cut.

My Senco Coil nailer, shoots one nail then shoots double nails

If your Senco coil nailer is shooting one nail followed by double nails, it could be due to several reasons:
  1. Jammed Nail: The first nail may have gotten stuck or jammed in the coil, and when the driver blade pushes down, it forces two nails to come out. You can try removing the jammed nail and reloading the coil.
  2. Depth Adjustment: The depth adjustment on your nailer may be set too deep, causing the driver blade to push down too far and shoot two nails instead of one. Try adjusting the depth control to a shallower setting.
  3. Worn Parts: The driver blade or nose piece may be worn out, causing it to push down unevenly and shoot double nails. In this case, you may need to replace these parts.
  4. Air Pressure: The air pressure on your compressor may be too high, causing the nailer to shoot double nails. Check the air pressure gauge and adjust it accordingly.
If you are unsure about how to troubleshoot or fix the issue, it's always best to consult the user manual or contact the manufacturer for assistance.

Depth adjuster is stuck

The dust from routers will get into everythnig and do it's best to keep it from working properly. Try using compressed air to blow out all around the ring and work it back and forth to get everything out. If that doesn't completely free up the ring, you may have to take it apart to clean it all out.

Greetings: How do you read the adjusting ring?

First, set the bit to where you want to measure from. This is usually done by setting the router on a flat surface and raising or lowering the bit until the end just touches the surface, Then set the zero on the ring to line up with a line on the router motor body. Each mark equals 1/64". The 1-8 marking means 1/8" and so on. Don't move the ring, rotate the router motor body to set the depth. Read the new depth where the line now meets the ring.

I just received a 693 plunge router via internet order. As soon as i took out the plunge part out of the case and moved the lever it pupped up and now will not move up or down > Is there something I am...

The plunge base is spring loaded. When you move the lever is springs to the up position. To lower it place the base on a flat surface, press and hold the lever down and push down on the handles. The router bit height should be set on the depth rod with the base in the down position. Then release it to the up position. When you have positioned the bit where you want it on the work piece, press the lever and "plunge" the bit down into the workpiece. The depth rod setting will stop the bit at the depth you set it for.

Having difficulty seting bit depth

I'm not familiar with that brand, but no, normally you need only loosen the lock so the router can move up and down, and either twist it or plunge it into the correct position, lock it, check the depth, repeat.
If it's a plunge router you'll have a depth stop rod that you can use in conjunction with the stop nuts to dial in the correct height of the bit. If it's a conventional router you just have to twist it into the correct height and lock it in place without moving it.
If your router table is fairly light and portable, sometimes its easier to turn the whole thing upside down on a pair of sawhorses to adjust, then flip it back over. Otherwise, you just have to crouch down under there, aim a work light so you can see what you're doing, and adjust away.
Make sure you unplug it first!
Also be aware that you might need a fence for your work to ride against, that you may need to make your cut in successive passes rather than trying to hog off too much at once, and that even routers can grab the work and kick it, so be cautious and feed from right to left as you face the bit, (with the work closest to you).

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.
