Paslode 5300/75S Framing nailer

If the new trigger valve leaks air when you connect the air supply, most likely defective valve or air is leaking past outer trigger valve orings due to debris in the slot or new orings were cut when the valve was pushed in. If air leaks when you depress safety to fire gun then most likely problem is in the head valve or safety foot is not pushing the firing pin all the way in. Easy test, remove nails and remove the trigger to expose the firing pin. Connect air and very quickly depress the firing pin all the way in. If the gun fires, adjust the safety foot as needed. If the gun does not fire, remove the head and check headvalve orings for good snug fit against the cylinder within the head. The surface were orings make contact must be very smooth and not too deeply worn. If you notice fine scratches remove with fine sandpaper. Reinstall head using plenty of white grease on all the orings within the head and retest. Good luck

make sure the safety is not bent what you can try and be careful is remove ALL nails and plug the tool into the air supply, find a small screwdriver and holding the nose up off work use the screwdriver to depress the trigger valve, if it works then you have a safety issue, if not then you have a trigger valve issue. Let me know if you need more help

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about the Paslode nailers and the problems that can come up with them.

I also have a link to the Paslode manuals which contain Paslode cleaning and troubleshooting guides.

If you need parts for your Paslode, there also is a link for a site that sells the Paslode nailer parts.

Simple. You have a leak you didn't have before. Either find it, or take it to someone who knows what they're doing. O-rings have a thickness, as well as a diameter. If you used generic rings, that's probably the problem. Use the repair kit by Paslode.

Paslode.com can tell you where your nearest dealer/repairer is.

Your o-rings are wore out. Paslode makes(made) a Tool Repair Kit, PN219235 and Trigger Valve Kit, PN219224 for your gun. Always use all of the o-rings in the kit and liberally lubricate them before installing them using grease in the kit or nail gun oil. If the kits are no longer available you'll have to get a breakdown of the gun, (www.paslode.com/uploadedFiles/PowerMaster_Plus_Parts_Diagram_Schematics.pdf) and order all of the o-rings. Be very carefull to put everythng back together properly, you are working with a gun.

if you have bought a new battery and charger , and it still will not hold a charge. you might have bought a bad battery or charger , also the fan dosent allways run so the fan going off is not a sign of a dead battery. depress the trigger or safety and the fan should start up again

Out of "gas", most likely Sometimes those things leak even when not in use. Try a new cartridge.

I have a Central Pneumatic Frame Nailer the driver will go down but not back up unless you disconnet air supply.

Hi,
Yes you need to oil driver blade piston.
You need to check for spark. With no nail or gas in it. Take of main cylinder(4bolts on top, 2 bolts on nose. And then put in battery. And then push upper switch(behind roller at top) and the fan will come on. And then pull the trigger. You should have spark.
Thanks,
Jeff

Here's what I found at the Paslode Troubleshooting Site:
Tool will not cycle - fan runs, indicator light
is solid green.

Lockout bracket is stuck in lockout position.
Work-contacting element is bent, or build-up of
debris in track restricts operation.
Follower is not behind fasteners.
Fuel Cell empty.
Spark wire out of spark plug.
Spark plug is dirty.
No spark is generated.
Check lockout.

Remove and inspect lower probe. Clean and
lubricate track with Paslode Impulse® oil.
Repair or replace lower probe as required.
Position follower behind fasteners.
Replace fuel cell.
Remove cap and check spark lead, insert in
spark plug and replace cover.
Clean tool cylinder head and spark plug.

If this doesn't work, I suggest contacting Paslode directly 800-222-6990
