1. Took out the hinge pin for the trigger, saved the rubber retainer washer that holds the pin.
2. Set the trigger and spring aside.
3. Use a straight punch OR take a nail the diameter of the two spring pins that hold the valve in place, grind the end of the nail flat. Gently tap the two pins out, NOTE they are different lengt hs.
4. Pull the trigger valve assembly out of the gun frame, Mine separated and required long nose pliers to pull the second half of the assembly out.
5. Inspect the empty hole for dirt and or debris, clean as needed.
6. Take the new valve assembly and use a light touch of Vaseline on the two rubber \"O\" rings just to help them insert in the frame. Caution do not block the air gaps in the valve system, just a light touch of lube to help assembly.
7. Orient the gray safety lever in the correct position and insert the valve assembly into the gun frame. align the two notches so the spring pins will slide in place.
8. Insert the spring pins Long and Short in the correct holes, tap them in until evenly seated. (same amount showing on both sides)
9. Place the trigger and spring back into position and push the hinge pin in making sure it engages the safety bar (this should not have moved but if it did make sure it is back where it belongs so the hinge pin keeps it in place).
10. Place the retaining rubber washer on the end of the hinge pin and you\'re back in business

I tapped out the 2 roll pins with the hammer and a long shank punch, I think it might have been a 1/8 or just a tad bit smaller, used the dental pick to pry the grommet off the trigger pivot pin. Removed the pivot pin and the trigger then pulled out one part of the trigger valve, it had separated and part of it was still down inside. I us ed the pick to remove it, all the pieces came out pretty easy. Placed the new trigger valve in, started to insert the roll pins but the valve assembly wasn\'t seated far enough, it kind of snapped into place when I applied a little more pressure. Replaced the roll pins and the trigger pivot pin, this was a little tricky at first, then I realized I needed to depress the trigger plunger to get the thin wire safety spring back into place, popped on the grommet and it was done.

After finding an exploded diagram online of the nail gun, I was able to see how the trigger assembly was removed from the body of the gun by knocking out 3 small pins with a hammer and small nail. Once the assembly was out, I noticed 2 small O-rings appeared to be damaged. I ordered a replacement trigger assembly and slipped it back into the nailer by reversing the process and now it works fine. Simple fix, very easily ordered part, text book repair.

THANKS!!
Blair H.
