GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE

CHANGING THE FASTENER GUIDE:
With the magazine attached, the GCN-MEP tool can re GDP series pins. The GDP pins have
a smaller head diameter than the single shot preassembled pins, which requires changing the
fastener guide. The fastener guide can easily be changed without tools, in seconds.
1. Remove the yellow plastic retaining clip
that hold the fastener guide.
2. Slide the single-shot fastener guide off,
and replace with the fastener guide for the
GDP pins (fastener guide for GDP pins,
is included in the magazine kit, model
number MEP-MAG1KT).
