Rather than try to repair it or look into it, call the dealer or take it back to him as you will invalidate your warranty if you do anything to the unit, and that is not worth it. Let the dealer worry about it.

SOURCE: My braid nailer will not fire. I can hear air when I pull trigger but it will not fire, almost like it has a brad jamed in it but do not see one?

Most likely stuck driver or headvalve. Easy fix. Remove the head, pull out the driver and check for bent shaft, if ok, lube and reinstall. Next remove the valve within the head, lube and reinstall. Replace parts as meeded. Retest. If it still does not fire, could be that the safety foot is not pushing the firing pin all the way up into the valve. Easy to check. Remove the nails, remove the trigger to expose the firing valve pin. Dry fire the gun by quickly depressing the valve pin with finger. If it fires, adjust safety foot as needed.

Brand new and leaks all of the air our the top, no power to shoot brad.

hi Philip, if pressing the gun down on timber and pulling the trigger doesn't release the switch to close the valve spray a little lubricant down the inlet connector with the trigger pressed then release. apply air and keep trying and if all else fails I think its time to return for a replacement or refund.

When my Senco SLP 20 brad nailer is connected to air hose, air will blow-by through the exhaust. After you fire a couple of pins blow-by stops

Most problems with this gun centers around the firing valve part # Bao119 . This part must not get any oil because it will swell and begin to fail as you describe. That being said, the trigger valve does need some type of lubrication or it will become sticky causing problem that you describe. If you have been using oil in the gun, most likely inner trigger parts will be lubricated and failure is firing valve. If no oil has ever enter the gun, suspect the trigger valve. It will need to be removed from the gun and lubed with white grease or silicone lube. Good luck

Nailer is shooting air out of trigger, is not releasing brad

Sounds like the head valve. Remove the head cap take out the head valve, clean, re-fit and give it a few drops of air line oil. Then give it a try. Good luck.

Porter cable brad nailer only fires brad on second trigger pull

The dent in the wood is not caused by the air. It's caused by the set that drives the brad. Are you oiling it consistenly? Are the brads the right manufacturer for your porter cable brad nailer? From the information you give it appears that the brads are not advancing correctly or that the air pressure is not sufficient to dislodge the brad from the brad strip on the first strike - it takes an additional strike to break it free. The standard for adding oil is to add ten drops of air tool oil for every hour of operation. That seems like a lot, but the correct amount of oil is a sure way to prevent most air tool problems.

Air leaks arond trigger when depressed, but no nail fires.

Where does the air leak out from? If it leaks from the trigger DeWalt makes a trigger valve assembly part # 641006-00 list 8.89 BUT if it leaks from other areas we have to look into it deeper. If it is just the trigger valve let me know and I will give you instructions how to remove and install the new one.

Nails won't shoot

18 guage nailer has a very thin driver and plastic cylinder which bends or breaks easily. Remove the head noting all the parts in the head and remove the piston which should be at the top of the cylinder. Check for broken or bent shaft. Most likely broken and jammed in cylinder. Parts are not expensive. Check WWW.toolpartsdirect.com for diagram and parts
