Used for fiber cement siding June 14, 2007 Mark L (Boson Area) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
It is expensive but it is a first class tool, I have used it to side a house with HardiPlank siding, It drives the stainless steel nails that I am using just fine,it is balanced and lightweight. It is highly recommended. . I just wish it came with a case and an air fitting
Light, but no power February 16, 2007 Steve Kiss 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The gun is easy to handle and gets into tight spots, but does not have to power to drive and set a 3" nail.
Hitachi - simply the best November 8, 2006 Brian Burtenshaw (Northern CA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The Hitachi NV75AG is a terrific coil nailer. Because it shoots sheathing thru framing nails the 75AG could be the only framing nailer in your toolbox. The real advantage of this gun is the (lack of) weight. Compared to any gun that will do the same, this gun is light. It may seem a little heavy when it's loaded with a full coil of 3" framing nails but it's not long before the coil gets shorter and then the gun is really nice to use. Everything about the 75AG is well designed and manufactured. Hitachi simply makes the best nail guns. I have owned and still own, Senco, Paslode, Makita, DeWalt and Max guns and I'm convinced Hitachi is the best. If I had to get down to just one it would be the NV75AG, the most versatile and comfortable gun I have used.
Good for overhead work July 23, 2006 Paul M (central new jersey) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Been using it for a few months now and am overall happy. The gun does fine for toenailing, subfloor/sheathing and with new doug fir. It is a bit underpowered for old wood and engineered lumber. The gun shines for doing some akward overhead work like drops, which is why I got it. If you are going to get one gun, get the 83, but the 75 is a nice gun to have if you are having more than one.
Easy nailer to use March 30, 2006 Bob S 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought this nailer to hang fiber cement lap siding on my home. This nailer is very easy to operate and comfortable all day in your hand. I've put about 2500 nails through it so far with only a few jambs, usually only when I come to the end of a coil of hit something underneath. Very easy depth adjustment and loading. Using this with the Malco FCG2 Fiber Cement Siding Plank Gauges for 4" exposure works like a charm. Easy guages lets you hang by yourself. Although I use them maily to hold the piece in place while I remove the guide and place a wood guide I make to ge the "exact" exposure. I'm very fussy on this. I highly reccomend this nailer. It's also great for nailing exterior wood trim, lots of power.
