Installing black trigger with new f28ww bostitch nailer

check the safty shaft and see if something could be under trigger safty causeing it to fire.

Your nailer is one of many bostitch nailers that use the TVA6 trigger valve. With time, this triggering valve will wear and act as you describe. Some TVA6 valves have a green plastic pin that wears and becomes shorter. (some have a metal pin) The safety foot and trigger can also cause problems. Try the following to determine the problem:
Remove the roll pin that holds the trigger in place to expose the tva6 valve pin. Remove the nails from the gun and connect airline. Place the nose of the gun against wood or hard rubber and with a very quick motion depress the trigger pin all the way in. If the gun fires then the problem is that the safety and the trigger are not depressing the tva6 pin all the way in. Check for worn parts and replace as necessary.
If gun does not fire remove the head from the gun and check headvalve for worn orings or very tiny scratches where orings contact surfaces. Use a magnify lense to check surfaces if necessary. Use very fine sandpaper to remove scratches (300 grit). Lube orings with silicone paste (looks like vaseline, sold at Lowes in plumbing department it is used to lube faucet orings) and re-assemble. This will make your nailer regain lost power.
Finally, when the tva6 valve fails, air will leak out valve at a high rate, however as the valve wears it will become troublesome if you have a plastic pin. To replace remove trigger then remove roll pins that retain valve. Use a thick glove to catch the valve as you connect to air supply. Use caution because it will come out with force. You may want to reduce pressure to gun when you do this. Good luck with your repair and email if you have question.

Yes your nailer will drive other sizes of nails. For info and parts go to www.bostitch.com and look for the support tab then select service parts. Here you will find parts list and manual. To remove the tva11 trigger valve remove the retainer pin (the pin is 3mm) for the trigger and remove trigger. Next remove roll pin/pins that retain trigger valve. Use heavy glove to catch trigger valve as you apply air pressure to gun. The valve could pop out with great force so try lowering the pressure to gun. Before installing the new valve, check the opening for sharp edges which will cut orings. Good Luck and email if you have more questions.

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
