Abstract
A driving tool includes a feeder that successively loads a driving member to a loading position. A driver moves downward in a driving direction to drive the driving member loaded to the loading position. A plurality of driving members are combined in parallel by a flexible member. A lifter engages the driver to move the driver upward in a direction opposite to the driving direction. A position detection sensor detects a rotation position of the lifter to detect a position of the driver. A controller determines that a tip end of the driver is positioned above the loading position according to a signal from the position detection sensor. The controller loads the driving member via the feeder.
