Review on DEWALT DCN650D1 Portable Cordless Nailer Kit with Enhanced SEO by Shawn Xayamonty

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great 15GA finisher gun but can't easily adjust driving depth

The Dewalt DNC650 nailer seemed like a good buy from the start. The device was fairly compact, light and easy to charge, but the device was returned for exchange after consulting a Dewalt service representative. The wheel that adjusts the depth of the nail head cannot move in any direction. The result was a driven nail that was flush with the trim strip, which then had to be nailed in by hand. I wanted to get rid of this handset requirement with the DCN650. Since I was unable to set the nail depth on this particular tool, I decided to send the tool in for a replacement in the hope that the replacement tool would be set correctly. Addendum: The replacement device has the same problem with the nail depth adjustment wheel. I plan on taking the nail gun to a DeWalt service center to see if they can find a way to change the dial so I can properly set the nail depth if needed. Apart from the adjustment problem, the nail gun works great!
