Minigraf 4 problem

Post by picturemaker »

Just wondered if anyone could help. I'm having a problem with our minigraf 4 , when we fire a v-nail the hammer takes a while to go back down so if we press the pedal quickly it doesn't stack another v-nail on top. The machine was working ok last week. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know the minigraf machines but is it something basic like the hammer physically being held back in it needs greasing?

it's either:
Sticky control valve
Foot pedal faulty
Kinked pipes from foot pedal to machine.
