      Answer This Question

      While the nailer does contain a warning not to use on extremely hard woods, cedar is considered to be a soft wood and safe for use.

          To reduce the risk of damage to the tool, only use DeWALT pneumatic tool oil or a non-detergent SAE 20 weight oil. Oil with additives or detergent will damage tool parts

            Hello Ron Thank you for your contact. We apologize for any trouble or inconvenience in finding information. To reduce the risk of damage to the tool, only use DeWALT pneumatic tool oil or a non-detergent SAE 20 weight oil. Oil with additives or detergent will damage tool parts.

              Oil like any other air tool. Before and during use occasionally as well as during storage time. You are just trying to keep any moisture from the compressor air line from ill effects in the tool.

                Not sure about, but it does contact nail for speed. I own this gun and works really nice. Light not heavy and great for fast and accurate nailing

                Very, very disappointed......
                Almost all my tools are Dewalt. I bought this nailer in July of this year because my Bostitch went south on me. Rushed to Depot and bought the only one they had. They advertise ten shots per second, I'm lucky I get two. The recoil just isn't there. I re oiled, re adjusted the pressure and nothing makes it work like it should. I've owned over 30 nailers ( framers, siding and roof ) in the 25 years of building storage sheds and never have I had one perform soooo poorly.

                  Double fires
                  Nail gun double fires--or triple fires--nearly every time. I got it to roof my shed. I have consulted the user manual to troubleshoot, adjusted the air pressure many times, and played with the depth adjuster. It still double fires!! Terrible product that burns through your nails and does a bad job, too.

                    junk
                    The day i bought it, I can't get one correct fire. It either fires two nails (how is that even possible?), fires zero nails, or fires one and leaves it 3/4" too high. Also it jams. I'm absolutely using the correct nails. I've tried a range of pressure from 70-120 PSI. I'd you examine how the nailer operates, you'll realize that it must fire a nail and then advance to the next nail (in that order). When it intermittently fires two nails, it must be mixing up the order of operations.

                      great powerful nailer
                      I’ve used many different types of roofing nailer‘s and I own a few different brands. And so far out of all the ones I’ve used this Dewalt is my favorite. It’s powerful but it’s easy to adjust on the depth with just a turn of the knob so nails don’t go to far in or too far out. I’ve used it for several roofs already and it’s holding up just fine. But my definite favorite feature of it is the way it sets the nails. I don’t know if it’s how the barrel is set or what but out of all my nailers this one drives them in the straightest. And to me that is very important for proper installation. I literally have hardly any nails go out of whack. I have also had no problems with any jamming. I think I’ve had one jam throughout my entire time owning it. And I’ve literally shot thousands of nails with this gun. I would definitely recommend this nailer to anybody because of the way it performs and any contractor would love it. For a DIYer it’s good also but is is faster but with bumpfire anyone with some quick practice can use it

                      don't buy this one.
                      my wife bought me this coil nailer with nails to redo the roof on our home. Sofar I'm half way done and the coil nailer keeps jamming, double and triple nails at a time, and had fired nails while no one is touching it. Than God it was pointing at the garage and not my daughter or I who were the ones on the roof when that happened.

                        will not jam, I really tried.
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sceptical of the nailing speed. At the speed they say this BMF shoots I was sure it would jam every time it dubble fired. I forced the nailer to dubble fire and even triple fire. It only jambed once but open two doors unjamed hassal and tool free. wow. I'm going to put this thing to some work. I think it will out work me though .

                          The Porter-Cable RN175C The product is packed in a double wall cardboard box with large staples holding the top closed. The instructional pamphlet has instructions written in English, French, and Spanish. The manufacturer needs to add more side protection for shipping purposes. If the box is jostled abruptly the 1/4" air nipple can break through the side of the package. See the pictures I have added to the review. The pneumatic nailer weighs 5.3 pounds and is very compact compared to others I have used in the past. This should allow you to work longer without getting the tennis elbow or fore-arm strain that can arise from long term use. It has been more than 30 years since I used a pneumatic roofing nailer and I need to practice more. I bought a box of the 1-¼" electro-galvanized Grip-Rite. Straight out of the box I drove 98 nails and 26 of them were double fire. I seemed to have better luck using the method where you hold the trigger and bump the tip to fire the nail. I also experienced about 6 blank fires but there were no jams. I do like the fact that they have included a rubber strip on the side of the coil drum to help keep the gun from sliding off the roof. All the guns I have used before had metal coil drums so I am not sure how well a plastic drum will last. Although having a plastic drum should be less expensive to replace if it ever breaks. The large knob to adjust the depth is another thoughtful feature. In my opinion this nail gun is a good value product that designed and built for the DIYer or someone that doesn't want to swing a hammer all day.

                          I'll be using this to make a dog house and chicken coop a little later this summer. I fired a few nails through it no problem. If you're new to air tools, always be sure to oil your tools before use and they'll last you a long time. I like the adjustable depth for this gun, which is a nice feature. The bump fire option is there as well, which is pretty much required for any legitimate nailer like this. In my picture below, you can see the whole nailer and magazine opened up for easy loading of the coiled nails. My only concern is that the coil holder is plastic, perhaps an ABS or something like that. It undoubtedly helps with weight since this nailer would be fairly hefty with the full roll of nails in there. I'm pleased so far and would certainly recommend.
