I am using 1.5 inch nails in 3/4 inch quarter round, but the nails will not go all the way in to the quarter round. I keep the gun firm against the trim and hold it for a couple seconds after firing, and I hold the gun as straight as possible. Any thoughts?
Is there an adjustment setting for different powers? Maybe you need to increase the power that the nail is being put in with.
Testimonial: "Thank you for your feedback. I should have mentioned I have the power on the highest level ie. 6, and no luck."
The nail is going through the quarter round without a problem. Is it being stopped from travelling into the backpiece (what you are trying to nail it to)as that is too hard? Try driving a nail into the backpiece only and see if that travels in the same distance. If it only just goes in then it is too hard for the nail gun. If it drives in the same amount then possibly a nail gun fault. Also try nailing a piece of quarter round into some soft wood. Basically it is trial and error to eliminate a problem with the gun and going from there. Hope that helps.
Oddly enough the nail goes through the back space without any problem. Perhaps it's an issue with the gun. Thank you anyway Steve.
