This sounds like one of the O-rings has failed. Yes it can be fixed. Check to see if HD has an O-ring kit for these guns. That kit will contain all of the O-rings as well as the lubricants for a total rebuild. That should resolve your problem.

Look for a jam in the gun.Sounds like a brad is "hung up" in it, probably right at point where it feeds into the mouth of the firing point. Be sure you unplug it before you do this.
Stanley Bostitch has been sold to Dewalt. The link below has all the information and parts for your gun. Good luck with your projects.

SOURCE: My brad nailer shoots staples without any problem
Shoots staples fine but brads jam or bend. Check that the part called "guide bar", #35 on the parts diagram isn't getting stuck in the channel of part #30.
The guide bar retracts into the channel when driving a staple and springs out of the channel to guide brads.
The guide bar can get stuck in the channel if it's bent or gummed up. (Bent is likely the result of driving a brad into an obstruction.)

The big, dial-like adjustment on the back of the tool just allows you to control the direction of the blast of oily air that comes out when you fire the thing.
The depth adjustment you're looking for is a smaller wheel, the top of which is exposed near the front of the tool, on top of the barrel (so to speak).
You can confirm that you're turning it in the right direction to drive brads deeper by seeing the metal end (where the brads come out) move closer to the plastic guard (that you press against the work). Less deep is, of course, the other way.
