Loading nails in a nail gun is a simple task that can be done in a few easy steps.

Step 1: Gather your materials.

You will need:

- A nail gun

- Nails

- Safety glasses

Step 2: Prepare the nail gun.

Step 3: Put on your safety glasses.

This will protect your eyes from any flying debris.

Step 4: Turn on the nail gun.

- Plug in the nail gun and turn it on.

- Hold the nail gun firmly against the surface you want to nail.

Step 5: Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all of the nails are driven.

Tips:

- To avoid jams, make sure the nails are properly inserted into the magazine and that the magazine is closed properly.

- If a nail does jam, turn off the nail gun and unplug it. Then, use a screwdriver or other tool to remove the jammed nail.

- Be careful not to over-drive the nails. This can damage the surface you are nailing.

- Always wear safety glasses when using a nail gun.
