I have a Paslode 6512 nailer that I bought new in '98 that, at that time, cost $1200.00+. I haven't used it in years and when I needed it this last summer it only shot two nails before failing. Most internal parts are obsolete and no longer available anywhere.
What I am looking for is a tutorial that describes EXACTLY, MECHANICALLY, how a pneumatic strip nailer works. All I can find is a general blah blah blah description written for a first grader. I hesitate to completely disassemble the unit until I know what I'm doing.
This gun shoots 5-1/8" nails of which I have a goodly supply and nothing else on the market (that I can find) will shoot these clipped head nails. Any help or advice would be appreciate...
