Air compressor won't cut off after it reaches max psi
Most pressure cut off switches have an adjustment screw on them where you can dial in the cut off/turn on pressures. Take a look and see if you have the adjustment screws. If you have the switch model, you can try looking up online to see how to make these adjustments.
Just bought a Hyundai HHC2GNK nailer, and the nails jam seemingly every second nail. Very frustrating! Any hints on how to solve this problem?
Assuming the nailer is in good order the problem is likely with the nails - the type, style, quality of nail you are using might not suit the nailer.
Some nails are poorly made and although I haven't personally measured them I suspect some nails purporting to be a particular gauge are either under or over the size. If they are imported, for instance, from a country using the metric system, they will probably be produced from sheet steel of a convenient metric dimension that is a near equivalent size, but not an exact match - 1.2 mm sheet is a tad smaller than 18 gauge while 1.3 mm is midway between 17 and 18 gauge.
Just a theory you understand.
Some nailers will be a little more roomy than others, especially those that have been worn in.
In addition it is equally possible the nailer was designed for metric nails but exporting to a country where metric nails would be unobtainable the manufacturer specifies a near equivalent, sometimes opting for the higher number and sometimes for the lower number - we see this a lot with imported clothes and shoes.
