It won’t feed the nails, has worked great for years till today- this just started. I’ve got to dig out the manual, but anybody have any ideas. Gun is clean, fires strong every time just no nail. Using same Paslode brand nails as always. Thanks. Hot up on the roof in Arkansas.

Have you checked for a broken driving pin?
*Yeah, Ralph, the pin is good. I got a guy on the phone today who said the feed spring can get weak on them. He also said he closes early on Friday....had to drag out the hose.
*How about some jammed paper collating tape? Those strip nails are supposed to be free sliding and if you have any spring tension at all it should be enough. Especially when the spring tension is at its highest with a fully loaded magazine.How about the piston having some dirt at the top end, not allowing the driver to fully retract up past the head of the nail?
*Dirty or previously soaked nails seem to jamb easier in mine. Grab a new clean sleeve and see if it works any better. I notice at times I need to apply a little pressure to the feed spring.
