Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Hitachi Koki U.S.A. is recalling two models of 3 ¼ inch strip pneumatic nailers with depth adjustment: model numbers NR83A2(Y) and NR83A3.

Units bearing both a letter "R" decal next to the model number and an engraved "R" near the serial number are excluded from this recall.
According to the recall notice, affected consumers should immediately stop using the recalled nailers and contact Hitachi Koki U.S.A. for instructions on returning the product for a free repair.
