DCN6901 RETURN SPRING REPLACEMENT KIT (FIG. 8A-8E)
Over time - driver blade return springs will wear
and eventually need replacement. It will become
apparent that the springs will need replacement
when the driver blade does not return home after
every shot. To verify - open the magazine as in the
Clearing a Jammed Nail section and if the springs
have worn out you will be able to move the driver
backwards and forwards in the nail channel with
very little resistance.
The tool has been designed in a way that it is easily
possible for the return springs to be replaced in less
than 5 minutes on site using accessory DCN6901-XJ.
