LOADING
Depress the magazine lock. The magazine can
then be pulled out. After loading, push home the
magazine. The magazine will then be automati-
cally locked in its home position.
STAPLING
Rapid 90EC staples automatically when the object
to be stapled is entered in the machine jaws and
actuates the trigger. The stapling depth, i.e. the
position in which the staples are inserted, can be
adjusted by moving the trigger. Depress the control
on the lefthand side of the machine and move it to
the desired position on the scale.
The scale presents the distance between the
staple and the edge of the paper. To change the
anvil to outword stapling:
Press the pin just under the anvil on the bottom of
the stapler and turn 180°.
OPERATIONAL DISTURBANCES
Rapid 90EC is designed to withstand intensive
and lengthy operation. Should operational distur-
bances occur despite this, the cause must be
investigated.
