Hi Scott, you have to keep the trigger pulled in constantly if you try and pull the trigger for each screw the rpm’s are not high enough which causes misfires. Also you need to use good screw strips, cheap ones have thinner plastic which also causes misfires. Hope this helps.

I had the same issue with mine, what I found was set it to the next size screw up from the one you are using then adjust the depth to as deep as it will go and works like a dream and finishes the screw about 2mm under the surface.

I've had similar issues with with different tools. My dewalt 20v framing nailer will sink its max diameter nail all day. But the min diameter nails(like paslode nails) misfire all the damn time. Those skinny paslode nails are engineered to be fired at a much higher velocity I think.

This addition to my tool kit is great and I can get a lot done without all the pain and annoyance. The battery last's a long time and I have yet to run out of power when doing a small project (granted I am saying small project because I'm no construction worker). The only thing that I wish it had was an LED or pair of LEDs to indicate when it was charging and whether or not the charge was complete (or full).

Hi Scott, I have the same gun (mains powered). and had exaxctly the same problems. I took the whole collated mechanism apart, used some dry PTFE on all the moving parts, stopped using generic colleted screws and started using Senco screws. The difference is night and day, I used to get a jam at least once in every two strips, just drywalled the whole of my brothers extension and didn't suffer any jams. Thoroughly enjoying your channel, keep up the good work and keep safe and sane.

I got the 2500rpm standard style Makita drywall drill, battery with the auto power function, and paired it with the senco system. Gives you the option of normal pouch of screws or auto strips. Got the 2500rpm so I can comfortably drive 3" screws for decks, or put up drywall, cement board, etc. No real complaints, works well, and I love the versatility. The auto power really makes a battery last a looooong time.

You are right about that screwgun being rubbish, I've been boarding for over 20 years and used most of the big brand screwguns (Hilti, Senco, Makita, Dewalt) never had any trouble with any of them and the 110v makita screw gun was awesome but the cordless one was useless even from brand new, always spitting screws and skewing them to the side! I fixed it in the end putting a shorter head and bit off an older version onto it.

@Aladinscave 4 года назад

A sds is NOT a drill contrary to believe, it is a chisel that is why it has such a unique chuck system, it is designed to have the ability to bounce back and forth while retaining the ability to keep the fluted chisel("drill bit") spinning to clear the material...it also is a mistake putting excessive pressure on the drill because it is not needed it just over heats the chisel the only pressure required is just enough to activate the hammering action, as a tradesman it amazes me how many people do not know this some working with this tool for years....

@billybobjoe198 3 года назад

Impacts are better at putting screws in mostly because the impacting action helps reseat the bit in the fastener. It's really an anti cam out action for screws. It's not like the impact force helping to remove machine fasteners.

Maintenance. That dirty gun needs it. If it still doesn't work after cleaning and lubing, it needs to be serviced like your paslode gas gun.

They are peerless for fastening hangers and brackets.

@phil-1477 4 года назад

I've seen other youtube drywall installers using the same makita drywall screwdriver. & they would scrape the grey lead of a pencil and put the dust in the front frame of the drywall gun as dry grease to help is slide better, as those guns are usually used on drywall & plaster dust can jam the mechanism up. Haven't used that trick yet but I do have a Milwaukee drywall screwdriver that works well, but you absolutely need to get the exact size of screw required & its metric where the makita is imperial, so finding the right size of screws that will perform well can be difficult. But my number 1 cause of jam has been because the screw size doesn't match the screw adjustments on the tool. So set the depth to match your screws on the tool & you should be good to go. Also, I have a feeling that for the screwdriver to start screwing well, it needs to start on drywall. If you're going directly into wood, it can't initiate fast enough & it's jam city again. Or at least that's my experience with the Milwaukee. But when it works, it's fabulous

The key to getting the best out of these tools is lubrication. Must be a dry lube we use GT85 spray maybe twice a day its a ptfe spray lube (basicly electrical component cleaner) don't use anything oil based. Also the gates at the front stick thats what causes the screw to kick off to the side usually ( we keep plenty of spares ) . Clean it , lube it all up , change the gate if needed and you'll be golden . I go through one maybe every year , they never same to be the same after you change the brushes on them so i just buy a new one . The makita DCO180Z rotary drywall cutter is a god send for cutting out sockets, switches ,windows etc. i would definitely recommend one.

I found that when using same string gun, if you spray the track where screw strip slides in with something very greasy (wd40 or better) it works much better.
