Clearing Jammed Nails
The most frequent situation with any type of nailer is a nail jam. A jammed nail must be cleared before using the nailer again.
Always disconnect air from nailer whenever clearing a jammed nail!
To clear a jammed nail from the discharge area with the Model G6049:
1.Disconnect the nailer from the air supply!
2.Push the finger tab inside the maga- zine pusher, pull the pusher back slightly to clear it from the nail stick and allow it to come all the way for- ward, near the nose.
3.Push down the backstop inside the magazine and slide the nail stick out of the back of the magazine.
4.Flip up the quick release latch located on top of the nailer nose assembly as shown in Figure 5.
5.Remove the driver guide cover.
6.The jammed nail should now be visi- ble; remove it from the discharge area with needle nose pliers.
7.Replace the driver guide cover and snap the quick release latch back into operating position.
