Abstract
A combustion nailer configured for reducing intake of contaminated air during operation, includes a combustion engine having a cylinder with a piston reciprocating between a prefiring position and a fully extended position, and at least one air port in the cylinder below the fully extended position. The at least one air port is provided with a venting check valve configured so that the discharge volume from the cylinder out the at least one air port is greater than the inflow.
