Abstract
A powered fastener driver includes a driver blade, a lifter, a nose piece, a magazine, and a light. The driver blade is configured to be movable between a top-dead center position and a bottom-dead center position. The lifter is operable to move the driver blade from the bottom-dead center position toward the top-dead center position. The drier blade is extendable through the nose piece when moving from the top-dead center position to the bottom-dead center position. The magazine is configured to transfer individual fasteners into the nose piece. The magazine has a front side configured to face the workpiece during driving of the fastener, an opposite rear side, and a lateral side extending between the front side and the rear side. The light is positioned adjacent the lateral side of the magazine closer to the front side than the rear side.
