How to Load 16ga C Brad Nails into Your Nailer

Before You Begin

• Use only 16-gauge C brad nails.

Safety First

• Disconnect the battery from the nailer before loading nails.

 
Loading Instructions

1. Release the Tension Latch

• Pull back the tension latch on the side of the magazine until it clicks and locks into place at the rear or bottom of the magazine.
   

2. Load the Nails

• Insert the nails into the rear of the magazine, past the tension latch.
• Ensure the nails are aligned as far forward toward the nose as possible.
   

3. Secure the Nails

• Press the release button to allow the tension latch to spring forward and hold the nails in place.
• Failing to do this will prevent the nails from being properly secured in the magazine.
