A:  I have not stored mine in a shed,but it has been in my garage not heated during the winter and it works just fine.i live in northeast ohio.hope that helps you.

    A:  Yes you can store it outside in a NY winter. Make sure you open up the valve on the bottom of the tank to drain any moisture and leave it open until again in use.

    by|Oct 25, 2020

    A:  Yes just drain the water in the tank.

    by|Oct 25, 2020

    A:  As long as you drain out any water that might be in the tank. Look for a valve on the bottom to see if it'll release condensation. If not, keep it inside. A new one that hasnt been used much should be okay in outside storage.

    Q:Can I use clipped head nails
    by|Aug 19, 2020
    3 Answers
    Answer This Question

    A:  NO.

    by|Oct 6, 2020

      A:  No, because the clipped head nails are closer to each other than the full round head ones any therefore they will shoot two at a time, which can and will jam the gun. But, one could use full round head nails in a clipped head nail gun as the nailer would simply drive one nail at a time.

      by|Jan 4, 2021

        A:  Yes I do believe you can use clipped nail head nails, just make sure you get the proper angle for the gun.

        A:  No.

        by|Oct 26, 2020

        A:  No. There is no fitting that goes over the intake to allow this. The intake is buried under a considerable amount of covering grid material.

            Q:so this will shoot 16d nails? so I need to buy 21 degree 16d nails??

            Answer This Question

            A:  Not sure on the 16d nails but make sure they're framing nails and yes they have to be 21 degree nails. The ones I bought are 2 3/8 in length and I also picked up 3" nails. Have fun.

            by|Jul 21, 2020

            A:  16d nails are 3½" so yes, this gun will shoot them. You will need to buy 21 degree nails because they come in strips which are set at the correct angle for the gun. Anything else would jam.

            by|Jul 21, 2020

            A:  This Tool is excellent for the price . Reliable and user friendly. Light and easy to handle. I have mine almost two years and would buy again .

              A:  Yes it can. I used 3 1/2” Nails just fine. It’s all about your regulator on your compressor. Just adjust your PSI to a higher range with longer nails and oil up when you’re done.

                    A:  There are 3 nail guns in the package, actually 2 nail-guns and a stapler. There is a small sample of each of the nails for each of the guns. Enough for a small project, but not enough to do more than get things moving.

                    by|Aug 16, 2020

                    A:  No it does not. But it fully satisfies all that I have used it for.

                    A:  No

                    A:  It comes with a small number of nails

                    by|Jul 1, 2020

                    A:  No, it doesn't come with nails. You'll need the correct gauge for each nailer.
