To Next PageTo Next PageWhy is my DeWalt Power Tool overdriving fasteners?
Fastener overdriving with your DeWalt Power Tool can occur if the power level is too high, the pin is too short, or the base material is too soft. To fix this, use a lower powder load level number or a longer pin. Also, check the base material suitability section to ensure it's appropriate for the tool.
What to do if my DeWalt P3600 Power Tool does not fire?
If your DeWalt Power Tool isn't firing when you pull the trigger, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, ensure the tool is fully depressed. If the tool is fully depressed, the firing pin might be damaged and may need replacement.
Why won't my DeWalt P3600 Power Tool fire even when fully depressed?
If the load will not fire even when the DeWalt Power Tool is fully depressed and the trigger is pulled, the load might already be fired, so cycle the tool. Alternatively, there could be a load misfire, so follow the safety procedure. Also, the firing pin may be broken and needs replacement by qualified personnel.
Why is my DeWalt Power Tool losing power?
If your DeWalt Power Tool is experiencing power reduction or inconsistent fastener penetration, it could be because the barrel is not pulled fully forward when cycling the tool; ensure the barrel is fully extended. Another possible cause is a worn or damaged piston or piston ring, which would require replacement.
How to fix a DeWalt P3600 that won't open?
If your DeWalt Power Tool cannot be opened or cycled, it might be due to a lack of proper cleaning, so ensure the tool is thoroughly cleaned. Another cause could be a damaged or bent piston, which would need to be removed and replaced. In the event of broken or damaged parts, tag the tool as 'Defective - Do Not Use', place it in a locked container, and contact your DEWALT Authorized representative for service.
Why can't I insert the load strip into my DeWalt P3600?
If the load strip cannot be inserted into the DeWalt Power Tool, it might be due to improper loading. Make sure to insert the strip from the bottom of the tool handle. Also, ensure you are using the correct caliber strip for the tool.
Why won't my DeWalt P3600 Power Tool fire when I pull the trigger?
If the load will not fire when the trigger is pulled on your DeWalt Power Tool, it could be that the tool is not fully depressed. Follow the safety procedure for a misfired load, then attempt to fully depress the tool before pulling the trigger.
How to unstick a piston in a DeWalt Power Tool?
If the piston is stuck in the forward position on your DeWalt Power Tool, it may have been overdriven and jammed against the piston reset pin. Try tapping the piston against a hard surface to dislodge it.
Why won't the load strip advance in my DeWalt P3600 Power Tool?
If the load strip will not advance in your DeWalt Power Tool, the advance lever guide might be worn. Replacement of the advance lever guide should be performed by qualified individuals.
What causes a chipped piston in a DeWalt P3600?
If your DeWalt Power Tool has a chipped or damaged piston, it could be because the tool was not held squarely on the work surface, allowing the piston to slip off the head of the pin. The piston can be machined as shown on page 14, #7, but this should only be done by qualified individuals.
