Abstract
A fastener driving device includes a frame, a fastener driver reciprocally mounted in the frame, and a trigger assembly. The trigger assembly includes a trigger lever configured to be moved to an actuated position to actuate the fastener driving device, a mode selector rotatably mounted to the frame, the mode selector being configured to move to select a mode of operation of the fastener driving device, and a trigger lock mounted to the frame, the trigger lock being movable between a first position wherein actuation of the trigger lever is permitted and a second position wherein actuation of the trigger lever is prevented. In the first position, the trigger lock engages the mode selector to prevent the mode selector from moving. In the second position, the trigger lock disengages the mode selector to permit movement of the mode selector to select the mode of operation of the fastener driving device.
