| The directions on the box say to use a 1-1/8" min. Would 1-1/4" work better? I wanted to use something a little bit longer than the min. Is it normal for the tongue to split from time to time? If not should I replace it if it splits? Its not splitting near as much now that I have the psi set @ 70. I had it 80 psi thinking that it would help push the staple in w/o kinking it. But after doing about a 1/4 of a room I noticed that if I put a lot a pressure on the back of the nail gun that it worked better and didn't kick back. My dad told me that if it split a little that it would be ok but i noticed walking on some spots that the floor would crackle and pop. So i then bumped the pressure down to 70 psi and it cracked a lot less but i have more staples that kink up. Anyway let me know what you think. I'm really worried that I may have messed up on that first 1/4 that the tongues were cracking more. Is that going to cause me problems in the future or will it be ok? Thanks again for any replys.  |
