Keeps repeating itself

Most nailers have a two position setting on the trigger to allow for single fire or bump fire. If set on bump fire, the gun will work better when you bump fire the gun instead of placing the gun on the work then depress trigger. Bump fire works best when safety spring has good tension. Easy test. Make sure that the safety spring is in place (with air hose removed, contact foot should spring back quickly when pushed against work). With air connected, hold trigger and quickly bounce the gun against the work. If the gun does not fire when you bump, the trigger is most likely set to single fire. With trigger set to single fire, you must place the gun against the work, then depress trigger. If the gun shoots two nails while set to single fire, most likely worn trigger or worn out trigger valve. These parts are not expensive and are easy to replace. Good luck

Nail gun will not shoot a nail

Check the safety trip make sure it is pushing back far enough. If it doesn't then it won't do anything. When it was fine just moments earlier.

Hi the gun wont fire

Had the same problem with mine. Remove the 3 screws on top and remove the lid. on mine the firing pin assembly was jammed. If the roller seems to be holding the pin carriage too tight then you need to prise up the spring mechanism over the carriage. To do this go to the end at the back of the machine and insert a screwdriver between the top carriage and the frame. prise gently and it should pop up. the firing pin should now move freely

Dewalt 51488. Air leaks around trigger and won't fire nail.

Go to Dewaltservicenet.com and download a breakdown of the tool before starting. I would recoment changing all the O rings and make sure that you get a good grease to lube them first. Its not that hard.

Nail Gun Problem

Professional-grade varieties are automatic, and fire a nail directly upon pulling the trigger. A semi-automatic nail gun is more appropriate for beginners, since it requires a two step process: pull the trigger and then tap the barrel against the wood. This safety feature protects the user from accidentally firing a nail gun and injuring himself or others.
