Ukuxazulula inkinga
| Inkinga | Imbangela Engenzeka | Isixazululo |
|---|---|---|
| Nailer does not fire or fires weakly. | Low air pressure; no nails in magazine; jammed nails; worn O-rings. | Increase compressor pressure; load nails; clear jam using quick-release; inspect and replace O-rings if necessary. |
| Nails jam frequently. | Incorrect nail size; damaged nails; low air pressure; dirty magazine. | Use correct 18-gauge nails (3/4" to 2"); inspect nails for damage; increase air pressure; clean magazine. |
| Compressor runs continuously or does not build pressure. | Air leak; faulty pressure switch; drain valve open. | Check all connections for leaks; ensure drain valve is closed; contact customer support if pressure switch is suspected. |
| Compressor does not shut off automatically at max pressure. | Iswishi yokucindezela enephutha. | Immediately turn off the compressor manually. This is a safety concern. Contact customer support for repair or replacement of the pressure switch. |
