STAPLER OPERATION

Read section titled "SAFETY" (pages 4-7)
DANGER
•
WARNING
•
Keep fingers AWAY from trigger when not driving Staples to avoid
•
accidental operation.
Never place your face, hands or feet closer than 8 inches (200 mm)
•
from discharge area when using. The Stapler may bounce from the
recoil of driving a Staple and an unwanted second Staple may be
driven possibly causing injury.
Check operation of the safety mechanism frequently. Do not use the
•
Stapler if the safety is not working correctly as accidental driving of
a Staple may result. Do not interfere with the proper operation of
the safety mechanism.
Never clamp or tape the trigger or contact trip in an
•
actuated position.
Do not drive Staples on top of other Staples or with Stapler at too
•
steep of an angle; Staples can ricochet and hurt someone.
Do not drive Staples into thin boards or near corners and edges of
•
work piece. Staples can be driven through or away from work piece
and hit someone.
Do not overdrive Staples. NOFMA states that one reason for split
•
tongues is overdriving.
Never use Stapler which is defective or operating abnormally.
•
Do not use Stapler as a hammer.
•
Disconnect air hose from Stapler when:
•
1) It is not in use;
2) Leaving work area;
3) Moving it to another location; and
4) Handing it to another person.
Wear safety glasses and safety shoes for protection against foreign
•
objects.
Use only Staples from Hitachi.
•
Air supply hoses should have a minimum working pressure rating of
•
150 psi or 150 percent of the maximum pressure produced in the
power source, whichever is higher.
Check all hoses before connecting to ensure that they are free from
•
dirt, grit, or particles that could alter the
performance of the Stapler.
An airline Filter and In-Line Air Regulator adjustable to 125 psi max
•
are required.
NEVER use a defective Stapler. Replace worn or damaged parts
•
immediately. Be sure that the Safety Trigger and
operating mechanisms operate correctly and that all screws and
seals are securely tightened at all times.
Operators and others in work
area MUST wear safety glasses
with side shields which
conforms to ANSI Z87.1
specifications.
NEVER point Stapler at
yourself or others in work
area.

METHODS OF OPERATION

The Stapler is equipped with the push lever and does not operate
unless the push lever is depressed (upward position).
SEQUENTIAL TRIP SAFETY OPERATION
The model N2503AF Flooring Stapler operates on a sequential
trip system. The sequential trip system requires the operator to
hold the Tool against the work before pulling the trigger. This
makes accurate fastener placement easier. The sequential trip
allows exact fastener location without the possibility of driving a
second fastener on recoil.
SEQUENTIAL TRIP OPERATION:
1) Press the contact trip against the work surface, without
touching the trigger.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
2) Hold the Tool off the work surface and pull the trigger.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
Release the trigger. The trigger must return to the trigger stop on
the frame
3) Pull the trigger and press the contact trip against the work
surface.
THE TOOL MUST NOT CYCLE.
4) With finger off the trigger, press the contact trip against the
work surface. Pull the trigger.
THE TOOL MUST CYCLE.
DUAL TRIGGER OPERATION (PATENT PENDING)
The dual trigger feature gives you multiple options for hand
orientation and trigger actuation to allow you to choose the
actuation method that works best for you for a given application.
The following illustrations are two examples.
WARNING
Keep your finger off the trigger except during stapling
•
operation, because serious injury could result if the push
lever accidentally contacts you or others in the work area.
Keep hands and body away from the discharge area. The
•
Stapler may bounce from recoil of driving a fastener and
unwanted subsequent fastener may be driven, possibly
causing injury.
Some types of loaded Staples can spark out of the muzzle
•
during a driving operation.
Exercise caution!
