Unscrew the 4 Allen bolts from the top of the nail gun. The offending part, a seal, was directly under the cap and the original one had deteriorated to the point it was in pieces. I removed all the pieces, cleaned up the entire area and replaced the seal with the new one. Then it was just a matter of putting the head back on and se curing it with the 4 Allen bolts. Plugged it into the air hose and all was right with the world once again. Total time------maybe 15 minutes and easy as pie.

The piston stop had hardened and crumbled. I removed the top of the gun by removing the four hex screws. Then the top of the gun comes off and you can take out the piston stop. I also replaced the head valve seal because it is made out of the same kind of plastic. Pretty easy and now the gun works again.
