paslode framing nailer

[njallday]

I lent my paslode framing nailer to a friend and said it is jamming up more often then not so i figure its time for cleaning and lubricating the unit. I know paslode recommends using paslode brand de-greaser and lubricating oil but does it really make a difference? Can regular 3 in 1 oil, de-greaser and electric connection cleaner be used? Thank you in advance for the help.

If it just started jamming up more often than normal the problem may be the nails your friend is using.

I dont think its the nails, its a brand new box of paslode brand nails, but thanks for response. The unit has quite a few hours on it since its last service i really just need to know if its okay to use non paslode oil and de-greaser.

I use other brands of oil and degreasser

Ok cool thanks for the info. Those nailers are work horses, just keeps going and going. Probly one of my favorite tools, a lot of fun when you fix a spring to pull back the safety and have a little target practice haha
