Cheers, Jim I don't have that gun, so the best I can do is offer some sort of vague advice in the form of: perhaps you could repair the knob by reaming it out and epoxying in a threaded insert... or maybe just replace it with a machine nut... |

Thanks for suggestion, but access to the depth adjuster knob resticted and
is very difficult. Secondly I'm not sure a machine nut would be any better strength-wise to absorb impact shock of nail gun. What I'm wondering is whether other users of this gun have a continuing problem with this or is this a one-time rare event, just like the "rare event" of the bad spark plug I had. IF this happens again and again, I'd just as soon cut my losses and move onto a different gun?
