This is a normal function of the tool. Do not attempt to prevent the recoil by holding the nailer against the work. Restriction to the recoil can result in a second fastener being driven from the nailer. Grip the handle firmly, let the tool do the work, and do not place second hand on top of tool at any time. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.
