The DEWALT 18V XR 16 GA Finish Nailer, models DCN660 and DCN661, is a professional power tool designed for nailing and tacking applications. It is a cordless, battery-operated tool, making it highly portable and convenient for various job sites. The tool is equipped with an 18V Li-Ion battery pack, ensuring reliable power for demanding tasks.
The finish nailer operates by driving fasteners (nails) into a workpiece. It features a magazine that holds a strip of nails, which are then fed into the firing mechanism by a nail pusher. The tool's contact trip must be pressed firmly against the workpiece, and the trigger switch actuated, to drive a nail. This two-step actuation helps prevent accidental firing.
The DCN660 model offers two operating modes:
The DCN661 model operates exclusively in sequential action mode.
Both models feature a depth adjustment wheel, allowing users to control the driving depth of the nails. This ensures that fasteners are driven to the desired depth, whether flush with the surface or slightly countersunk. A depth indicator provides a visual reference for the current setting.
The tool is equipped with worklights located on each side of the nosepiece. These lights illuminate upon activating the trigger or releasing the contact trip, providing visibility to the immediate work surface. The worklights also serve as indicators for low battery and jammed nails.
A trigger lock-off mechanism is integrated into the tool to prevent unintentional firing. This safety feature should be engaged when the tool is not in immediate use or during adjustments.
