ABSTRACT:
A connector (10) for positioning fasteners (16) in a preformed opening (24) in a wall (12). Tabs (18) formed on the front surface (13) of the wall (12) guide the nail gun (22) and trip a trigger mechanism to cause the fastener (16) to be driven through the wall (12) and into an abutting structural member.
The system further includes a nail gun (59) having a follower plate (94) pivotally mounted in channels (89) formed on each side of a foot (79). Each follower plate (94) is guided into contact with a tab (116) that pivots the follower plate (94) into contact with a mounting plate (75) attached to a linking arm (68) that enables activation of a pneumatic nail driving device (62) and the ejection of a nail through a predetermined position on the connector (118).
