It's just like Goldilocks: Too much air pressure and the nailer is too aggressive; too little and it doesn't function well; just the right air pressure and you have very good control  - you can readily do single controlled blows. Check out picture below - not one pin ever hit with a manual hammer.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT><IMG alt="" hspace=0 src="cid:003801c8a07a$d8b194b0$0301a8c0@DESKTOP" align=baseline border=0></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>Terry Farrell</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial>----- Original Message -----  <BR>> My experience with  a cheap air driven impact tool lead me to lower the air pressure for the last depth run over the pins. When you lower the pressure to the right number, you can get ultimate control on how fast the pins go down.<BR>> <BR>> Marcel Carey, <BR>> Sherbrooke, QC<BR>> _<BR>>> <BR>>> For me....Using the palm nailer doesn't eliminate ALL the conventional hammering completely as it would be extremely tricky to set the pin at the perfect height with the palm nailer.  All in all, though, it saves tremendous wear and tear....<BR>>> <BR>>> hope this helps  - Trix Erwin<BR></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
