ABSTRACT:
A fastener-driving tool comprising a nosepiece, a mechanism for driving a fastener from the nosepiece into a workpiece, and a mechanism for feeding an elongate strip of collated fasteners, such as, for example, nails having heads. An elongate track admits the strip of fasteners and guides it so that a leading fastener is positioned so as to enter the nosepiece. A pusher is movable longitudinally along the track over a range of operative positions, between a retracted position and an advanced position, and laterally between the retraced position and an inoperative position. The pusher is biased longitudinally so as to push the strip of fasteners along the track, toward the advanced position, when the pusher is disposed within the range of operative positions. The pusher is biased laterally toward the inoperative position, at which it can be releasably latched. A button is arranged to be manually depressed so as to release the pusher.
