User questions & answers

Question:	DOES IT COME IN A CASE
Answer:	Actually, it doesn't pull but rather it pushes. It has a shaft pushed by air and forces the air out. Place the tip of the gun over the sharp end of the nail. It will remove most nails easily. But, be careful and wear protective gear, as the strong force can cause the nail to exit hard and maybe ricochet. I love mine and highly recommend.
Question:	Is this easy to use
Answer:	I use Paslode 30° nails with this gun. I've shot 2 inch, 2 3/8 inch, and 3 inch nails and never had a misfire. This is a great gun.
Question:	What material is the body made of
Answer:	whereever you can get it, esp the one made by dwarfs......Drink Pepsi.....!!!!
Question:	Does this come with Manufacturers 3 year warranty
Answer:	It has a five year parts warranty.

Product description

Porter-Cable's coil roofing nailer is a rugged, lightweight piece of equipment that has the capacity to fasten a full bundle of shingles on a single load. The housing is designed to be as light as possible while still offering the durability you expect on a job site--which is nice, considering how unpleasant it is to lug a weighty tool around on a roof. The ergonomic handle and rubber grip are comfortable to hold, even over long periods of time. Because roofing nailers take a beating, no matter how careful the roofer, Porter-Cable souped this nailer up with steel protectors and rubber pads to keep it from sliding and/or falling. Features include a quick-click depth-of-drive adjuster; a powerful, high-performance motor with adjustable exhaust; a refined feed mechanism that includes double cams and guides; and quick-adjust support for all nail lengths. This Porter-Cable model accepts standard 15-degree wire-collated coil framing nails from 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 inches. The kit also comes with a 3/8-inch NPT air inlet and 1/4-inch male quick coupler (with dust cover), oil for the nailer, wrenches, and an operating manual. --Jonathon Tudor

From the Manufacturer

This rugged nailer is designed to withstand the harsh conditions encountered in roofing. Dual carbide inserts in the steel safety foot resist abrasion from shingles. Likewise, steel standoffs on the body of the gun with rubber pads protect against abrasion while preventing sliding. A vinyl cover protects moving parts from contamination by cinders and tar. Drives 7/8- to 1-3/4 inch long coil roofing nails. A convenient quick-click depth-of-drive adjustment allows setting of nail head height without adjusting the regulator on the compressor. Proper spacing of shingles can be assured by using the built-in, adjustable shingle guide on the magazine. Heavy-duty, yet lightweight at 5.1 pounds it can be used comfortably all day long. Includes nailer, 1/4-inch male quick coupler plug with dust cap, oil, Allen wrenches, and operator's manual.
