I'm gonna be driving some hanger nails... so I picked up a used palm nailer. the rest of my senco guns are oilless, but I don't know about this thing. it didn't come with a case or any kind of documentation. anybody here have one and know whether to oil it or not?

Have you tried
Mike O.
I don't see the user manual listed for the palm nailers (Senco calls them "hand nailers" A9, A20) but you can try contacting their tech support at:
I think it was snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com who stated:
YES.
I got one for putting together a shed last summer and the manual sez "Squirt Senco pneumatic oil (1 to 2 drops) into the air inlet twice daily (depending on frequency of tool use)." I'm guessing any pneumatic oil would do . . . .

Got one. Oil it.
Oil away! Just use Air Tool Oil. Should be able to get it at any local hardware store or stores that sell air tools. Brand of oil probably doesn't matter as long as the oil is for air tools :-)
Have fun!
SFWIW, you can use tranny fluid to oil.
I use the red one.

thanks, all... oil it is.
