If the graphite inserts on your Ridgid R175RNE nosepiece have worn out, then follow this guide to know how to replace them by taking off the nosepiece. All you'll need is a small pry tool to remove a single C-clip.
The nosepiece is what centers the nails that are fired, and keeps it from firing off in a different direction.
In Step 1, be sure to remove the C-clip in a well-lit, enclosed space. Otherwise, once you have it may fly off to parts unknown.
Caution: As noted in Step 1, disconnect the nailer from any air supply before starting this guide.
