Wow!! Great SHOWING DIFFERENT STYLES OF HEADS ANYONE THOUGHT ABOUT DOING A YOU TUBE SERIES..ON HOME REPAIR OF YOUR WEED EATERS A TO Z THERES GETTING TO BE LESS AND LESS SMALL ENGINE OR WEED EATER REPAIR MEN..NONE HERE 😭 THEN ADVANCED COURSE DO ONE SMALL RIDING LAWN MOWERS..??WE NEED KNOWLEDGE GUYS OUT HERE SAVE US.. TEACH US TO FIX OUR WEED EATERS ..GAS AND BATTERY. THANK YOU GUYS THANK YOU YOU TUBE 😀🏡
16 seconds in and I found what I needed!!!! Absolute legend. I was sticking flat heads, Phillips skrewdrivers and Allen keys in there and couldn’t for the life of me figure it out. 🤟🏻🇬🇧
Dang! This guy is the Einstein of pneumatics! I was about to throw in the towel and junk my nailer, but I will definitely finish watching the video and give it another try tomorrow. Thank you for the best instructional video, probably in existence!
@@Allenr1967 The piston rod unscrewed from the plunger and a gasket was bad. Bought a $20 rebuild kit, followed your very detailed and easy to understand instructions, and back to new! Never could've done it without you. Thanks!!! Liked and sub'd
Hi, could you help me to find one of those metabo reduction valves no one has any stock of these anywhere. If not do you know what that small brass fitting is on the end of the hose? I'm thinking I could connect that directly into my tyre inflator which has an automatic shut off, dial it up to 110psi and re fill the tank. Thanks
Can I remove the original spool and put on a separately purchased no string one on a Radley Grass Trimmer? And THANK YOU for making this video. SOOO MANY videos say they are removing the spool head but they are only adding string. 🤨
This is just what I needed to see. Only the nail pusher didn't just set in there for me. I pushed it all the way up (with no nails) and that set it in place until I could put the bottom latch back on.
@playerzero0000 it's first generation tech for them. The first three models had their own regulators. 371208, 371209 and 371210. All models since 2015 have used one of these three regulators.
You have to just put in on the housing as evenly as possible and with smooth, steady, straight down medium force. Push it back in. If it starts to lean to one side. Stop, straighten it up and continue until it all the way down.
Thank you for the explanation of operation and tear down showing how it goes together and all the knowledge of what happens with these nailers. I dropped mine 9 feet right onto the concrete nothing appeared damaged but it wont fire anymore... Now I am certain my issue is the body was bent inward and the cylinder can't move.
With the regulator I removed the hose and put a 10 mm long socket over the screw and hooked up the hose again. Was much easier to screw it on. Saw this on another video.
What i mean is I needed to see the magazine disassembled because I had a jam, took it apart and cleared the bent nails, but when I put it back together a spring and the guide fell out unexpectedly so I thought surely, a video titled FULL DISASSEMBLY would be a full disassembly, including magazine.
The tool is filled with compressed air that drives the piston to apply fasteners. There are seals that wear out eventually, and that air begins to leak. This process refills it.
Thank younfor sharing this. Instructions for the NR85A(S) say just to slide the rod to engage contact actuation mode. I can not for the life of me get that rod in the trigger to move far enough. Worst instructions ever. Thanks Metabo. Any input?
You’re a life saver! I jammed my nail gun and took it apart to fix it and then forgot how to put it back together. Thank you for this video explaining how to do that and the other ones you made.
Life saver my man! Worked stopped when this magazine jammed and the guide that pushes nails came off the spring. Thanks to you in less than 30 min. I'm back to work! Thanks again!!❤😅
I'm having an issue with 2 guns, an 83aa and an aa5. Both guns fire every other nail. It seems that when it doesn't shoot a nail, it's because the driver doesn't come back all the way. It sounds different when this happens. On both guns I've replaced all cylinder o rings and driver/o ring, and it helped for an hour then right back to same problem. Please help! Edit: I'll add, if I try to fire them quickly (5 shots per second ish) they both sound like their running out of air, if that makes sense)
Yes. It makes sense. Let me go over some common things it might be. *If compress air tanks are not drained regularly. You could have built up water in them which could be pushed through the hose and into the nailer. Water in the passage ways could starve the nailer of air pressure. *In the same direction. If grease is used as lubrication in the nailer. You could have grease clogging the passage ways. Try cleaning those passage ways with pipe cleaners and use compressed air to blow directly through the passage ways. *Another possible thing. If the driver flops back and forth when the nailer is turned upside down. Take the driver out. Remove the oring and examine the slot the original goes in. Look at it as a cross section. The bottom of the slot should look square. If the bottom of the slot is rounded. It is worn out and the oring is not holding enough air pressure behind the driver to function correctly. *Check and make sure the driver travels through the nose without restrictions. Nose or driver could be bent. * Check the exhaust value in the cap for wear. If it's worn, it could cause abnormal cycling. * Last possibility, Check the ease of travel of fasteners going through the magazine. The clipped head magazines are created to a slightly tighter tolerance. So different manufacturers of fasteners can have different preference. If the magazine is dirty or bent. It could definitely cause stripes of fasteners to travel through the mag harder. I hope any of this helps. They are all just possible causes.
@Allenr1967 thank you so much for the response. I tried calling metabo, but it was a waste of my time. Tanks are drained twice a day, typically. We use kilfrost now in the winter to lube. It's happening to two guns that are fairly old, not to the new ones. You may be on to something with the pipe cleaner. Not sure which passageways exactly but I'll poke around. That definitely sounds like it could be the problem. Our jobs are muddy, icy, wet and overall shitty. The drivers and their o rings are both brand new, fit snugly and travel all the way with firm finger pressure. Magazines are feeding well (when the driver fully retracts). I really appreciate your time... these are the best guns ever made imo and I refuse to trash them!
Darn, i just ordered the valve kit 371208 and it will work with my framer but i wanted to recharge my 18g nailer NT1850de. I seen that you mentioned that this kit will work unoficially with the 18g, am i able to just set my compressor to 51psi and charge it like that?
How similar is this to the original / japan Nr83aa? I've been rebuilding them for years but the one I have now has me stumped. I've learned some things to try though. Great video!
Awesome video! I have the NT1865DM(S) finish nailer... ordered the regulator on Amazon and followed these excellently presented instructions. The gun is working great again, and now I'll be able to recharge it quickly whenever needed. Glad you made this video, because I was about to chuck the Metabo and go back to a Paslode.
