Need some help... 1) Loaded the nail properly (plastic flanges just inside barrel, nail point facing down/out) 2) As far as I know, I loaded the bullet/charge correctly (in my case, green tip into cartridge hole, leaving a bit of the cartridge sticking out for the tool to finish setting). 3) Set tool onto wood (attaching sill plate to concrete) 4) Fully depressed tool (can see indentation in wood) 5) Struck strike plate on top of tool with hammer and winced, expecting loud noise... Nothing... Waited... Nothing... Opened barrel to attempt to dispose of what I assumed was a dud charge... No charge to be seen. No nail in wood (nail still in ramset), no visible cartridge in tool to dispose of (not going digging)... "Note: It is a good practice to fully extend the barrel and re-chamber the load after the tool is improperly struck causing a misfire, and after the misfire procedure has been followed." Tried to do that... Help? Tool is currently alone in my backyard, pointed at ground. I heard a pop a few moments ago, suppose it might have been it finally discharging? After I hit it a couple times with the hammer (figured I must not have hit it hard enough the first time and yes, this would be my initiation with the tool), I did smell a bit of something but it could have been saw dust on my light that was just warming up too... Help please. Ok, so I went out to see if the charge had perhaps gone off on a delayed schedule, and when I tried to open the barrel to dispose of the charge (not sure if I'm using the right terms here, but..), it did not slide (stuck). So, I reset the tool on a chunk of wood and tried again with the hammer. One strike, nothing. I'm a bit paranoid at this point.

For technical assistance or service information call 1-877-ITW-BRANDS (1-877-489-2726). Note: When overdrive occurs, the piston may jam into the front barrel. In this case be sure the tool is unloaded, turn the tool upside down and place on the work surface. Strike the exposed piston with a hammer until it moves downward into the barrel. Reset the piston. Wear safety goggles when performing this task." I would love to try this, but I can't "unload" either the nail or the charge.

Hello all, I have a Campbell Hausfeld Pro Air 5HP 20Gal upright Compressor. I love it, I swear buy it, but it is loud and driving me nuts, I need to be able to work in the night time around the house. But my compressor is so loud that I cannot, I need to know how to make it silent, I found a page on the net someone had made a conversion with some type of refrigerator line and I don't know what else. I need to know if their is any place out their that just sells a converter to convert my compressor to a silent compressor. This is an oilless compressor. Loki247 :(
