FAQs

What type and size of nails does this nail gun use?

The Paslode IM65 F16 uses 16-gauge straight brads ranging from 16mm to 64mm in length.

How long does the battery last on a full charge?

A full charge provides up to 10,000 shots. A quick charge can provide 200 shots in just 2 minutes.

Do I need to use specific fuel cells with this tool?

Yes, this is a cordless gas nailer and requires Paslode Impulse gas fuel cells for operation.

How do I adjust the depth of the nails?

The tool features a tool-free depth adjustment mechanism. Simply turn the dial located near the nose of the gun to set your desired nail depth.

What is the 'last nail lock-out' feature?

This feature prevents the tool from firing when the magazine is empty. It helps to avoid blank fires, which can damage the work surface and the tool.

Can I use this nail gun for interior and exterior trim?

Yes, the cordless nature and precision make it suitable for both interior and exterior finishing applications, provided the materials are compatible with brad nailers.

How do I clear a nail jam?

Engage the quick-release front clip to access the magazine, then carefully remove the jammed nail. Ensure the tool is not powered and the battery is removed before attempting to clear a jam.

Troubleshooting

Nail not firing

Check if the battery is charged and properly inserted. Ensure a gas fuel cell is installed and not empty. Verify that the magazine is loaded correctly and that the last nail lockout is not engaged. Ensure the nose is pressed firmly against the work surface.

Nails not driving fully

Adjust the depth of drive using the tool-free adjustment. Check the gas fuel cell level; a low level can reduce driving power. Ensure you are using the correct length and gauge of brad for the material.

Tool jams frequently

Clear the jam using the quick-release front clip. Ensure you are using the correct Paslode brads and that they are properly seated in the magazine. Avoid forcing the tool or firing without a nail present.

Inconsistent firing or power

Check the gas fuel cell level and replace if low. Ensure the battery is fully charged. The cooling fan may need a brief rest if the tool is overheating during continuous heavy use.
