Key specs: 18V Makita LXT battery powered, brushless motor, weight about 2.3 kg, depth adjustment dial, magazine capacity of 100 nails, continuous firing mode, no-mar tip, LED work light, battery voltage and capacity in the kit include two 5.0 Ah batteries plus a charger. It can drive nails from 15 mm to 35 mm in length, with up to 2,000 shots per charge.

1) Ensure the tool is off and the battery is installed. 2) Open the magazine by pulling back the follower and sliding in compatible 15–35 mm finish nails. 3) Release the follower to lock the nails in place. 4) Power on, set the depth dial appropriate for your material, and test on scrap wood to confirm depth and drive before starting your project.

The depth adjustment dial lets you control how far each nail is driven into the workpiece. For delicate trim, use a shallower setting to avoid sinking nails too deep; for cabinetry and harder woods, use a deeper setting to ensure a secure hold. Always test on scrap material to dial in the perfect depth before working on the actual piece.

The DFN350RTJ offers a continuous firing mode (bump fire) for rapid nailing tasks. If you need greater control for precise placement, switch to a sequential mode if the tool supports it or follow Makita’s instructions to set safe, controlled firing. Always start with a test on scrap to ensure you’re getting the desired results.

Always wear eye protection and keep hands clear of the nose tip. Use the no-mar tip to protect surface finishes. Remove the battery before clearing jams or performing maintenance. Only load nails that match the recommended 15–35 mm size. Keep the tool pointed in a safe direction when not in use and work on stable surfaces with good lighting.

Regularly wipe down the tool to remove dust and debris. Keep the magazine free of obstructions and clear nail jams promptly. Periodically apply a light few drops of pneumatic-grade oil if recommended by Makita for your model, and check for loose screws or damaged parts. Store in a dry place and avoid exposure to moisture.

Ideal for finish carpentry, trim work, cabinetry, picture framing, decorative mouldings, and other precision nailing tasks where surface protection and accurate nail placement matter. The LED light helps illuminate work areas in dim conditions, making it easier to nail precisely.
