Notes

A framing nailer for structural wood framing where reliability impacts productivity. Repair is often justified for driver, feed, and ignition-related service when the tool body is solid and parts are available.

Replace when repeated misfires persist after service, critical housings crack, or the cost of maintaining consistent driving performance approaches the value of a dependable tool.
