Abstract
A driving tool includes a driver driven by an electric motor, a driver guide for guiding a movement of the driver, and a magazine for housing driving members. The driving tool also includes a feed pawl for loading the driving members from the magazine to the driver guide, and a power transmission member being interlocking with a movement of the feed pawl. The driving tool also includes a solenoid for moving the feed pawl via the power transmission member. The solenoid is arranged in a main body housing outside of the magazine.
