How to release the follower button on paslode

With the old IM250 (900400) you remove the lower probe, open the nose release, the upper probe will turn slightly and come out.
With the newer models you have to disassemble the tool and separate the handle halves to remove the probe.

Paslode imct 900420 follower button... how to remove to replace spring?? Punch out the button stem from inside..

Ok the only thing that keeps it from riding over the top of the nail is your quick release on the front of the tool. I bet when you go to latch the front that it is not very tight. you need to replace the whole door. This should take care of you problem. # 900759 front plate assemblyhttp://www.paslode.com/cleaning-procedures.html

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.

I know this post is old, but nothing worked for me until I tried the following.

little plastic triangle pin that fuel cell tip plugs into was somehow plugged in to far. pull that out, plug in gently, retry nailer.

Have you got the safety OFF?

sounds like the trigger m8 the only way to cure it is to replace the molded circuit assembly 900475. but try cleaning the trigger switch and make sure the spring is seated properly. hope this helps m8

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
