Stanley Bostitch Air Nailer Trigger N60 Fn Questions & Answers
The spring in my trigger flew out. how do i put
The n60fn uses two triggers, rapid fire trigger (black metal) is pictued with your post and does not need a spring. Just replace the 3 mm roll pin that holds trigger to the body of the gun and you should be good to go. The other trigger is the white plastic sequential. The sequential trigger uses a fine spring between the trigger and centered on the tva6 trigger valve. Parts and breakdown at
www.toolpartsdirect.com. Good luck
When using n60 nailer, one
Worn orings in gun and the trigger valve can/will cause problems as you describe. Remove the nails and leave open the latch. Lighty tap the nose of the gun against coiled rubber hose. The driver/piston should stay in the top position (if the driver is down or comes down after test, replace driver oring). Now push the nose against the rubber hose and activate/hold trigger, while holding the trigger/gun in this position, the driver will /should stay down under pressure. At this point no air should leak out of the nose of the gun. If air leaks out of the nose, examine the lower bumper for cracks ( replace as needed ). Finally remove the trigger and examine the firing valve pin. If it has a plastic pin, looks worn and wobbles from side to side, most likely needs to be replaced. If however it has a metal pin and it seems to fit snugly, do not change unless it is leaking air. Good luck
I have a N60FN Bostitch nailer. It's loosing air
Your nailer uses a trigger valve part # tva6 (or tva1, but use tva6) (cost about $20) and is sold at www.bostitch.com or ebay for generic. If you have a source for orings, you could try to repair the valve. Remove the roll pin that holds the trigger to expose the tva6 valve. There are roll pin/pins that hold the valve in just above the valve in the body (Use punch for 3mm hole). Remove these pins and apply air pressure to gun to pop-out the valve. Use caution when you do this. Remove nails, lower pressure to gun and use glove or rag to catch valve because it could come out with force. Note the two grooves on the side of the valve where retainer roll pins hold valve. Remember to insert the valve with these two groves aligned with path of roll pins. With tva6 valve in hand remove two pins that hold valve together and remove inner plunger. The middle oring/seal on plunger is cause of leak. Try using an oring with smaller inside diameter than the broken or loose fintting seal that is present. It must fit pretty tight and be slightly thicker than 1/16" to work. Remove the outer orings to valve and clean and re-use same. Clean the valve port in body of gun and check for sharp edges to prevent cutting orings before inserting the valve. Use silicone lube or oring lube on the orings and the valve port (Danco silicone paste sold at Lowes in the plumbing department). Good Luck on your repair and email if you have other questions
My Bostitch N12 won't advance nails
It could be the o-rings for the feed piston but a bad feed spring will
also cause problems. that would be the easiest place to try if you can
find a spring. Many of the parts for these are becoming NLA (no longer
available) from Bostitch. One problem they had in the feed piston area
was chipping the nose where the orign seals the piston stem. There is a
small bumper on the inside of the feed piston cap that goes bad and
allows the piston to travel to far back which slams the feeder against
the lower housing and can chip it where the piston goes through.
Have a stanley air compressor worked fine but now the air won't come through the tip of the hose even when I put it on the tire?
Talking in the past tense about compressor working fine before.
Is it working fine now"
If it is, pumping the air tank full, and air not coming from the end of the hose, the end tool valve maybe jammed, or the hose plugged. (sometimes the inner lining of the hose separates from the reinforcing mesh and clogs the hose)
To test this theory, take the hose off from the tank (when no air is in the tank), start the compressor and see if the air is pumping out freely. If it is then the compressor is indeed fine.
Take the tool of the end of the hose, then reconnect the hose and restart the compressor. This will tel you if either the hose or the end tool is at fault.
