TOOL OPERATION Fasteners Depth of Drive Adjustment The Paslode T250S-F16P Finish Nailer drives Paslode® 16 gauge fasteners designed to be used with the tool. The use of fasteners that do not meet Paslode standards could cause tool damage and will void all warranty claims. Disconnect the air supply.

TOOL OPERATION Trigger Methods: Unload Nails: To unload nails, simply pull the follower to the rear of the magazine and press the center lock button on the follower. The lock will move the follower out of the way and allow nails to slide past the follower and out of the rear of the magazine. To release the lock simply pull the follower back and the lock button will release and allow the follower to move forward.
MAINTENANCE Paslode® tools are built for ease of maintenance. A few simple details will assure trouble-free operation and long tool life. Anyone who uses or maintains the tool must read the safety and maintenance instructions. Study the schematic drawing before starting any repairs on the tool. Testing the Tool After Servicing After replacing any part or parts, it is important to check the tool for proper operation.
MAINTENANCE ACTION Drain air line filter (daily). WHY Prevent accumulation of moisture and dirt. HOW Open manual petcock (most air supply systems have such a valve). Clean filter element, then blow air through filter in direction opposite to normal flow. Prevent clogging of filter with dirt. Wash with soap and water or follow manufacturers instructions. Check that all screws on tool are tight. Prevent air leakage and promote efficient operation. Check screws daily.
OPERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION Adjust the depth of drive adjustment (retract length). Fasteners will not drive completely into wood. Increase air pressure (do not exceed 120 psi). Increase air flow to tool -- use larger air lines (3/8 inch ID minimum). Fasteners penetrate properly during normal operation, but won't drive fully at faster speeds. Adjust the depth of drive adjustment (extend length). Fasteners drive too deeply into wood. Reduce air pressure.
