5. OPERATION
WARNING:Make sure you have read all safety
instructions. This tool comes completely assembled.
There is no assembly required. Make sure tool is
powered off before any of operations.
5.1 Operation
1. Make sure tool is powered off.
2. The power tool has a bottom load staple magazine.
Turn tool upside down and squeeze pusher
assembly (Fig 2).
3. Pull pusher assembly out until it stops to reveal the
staple magazine (Fig 3).
4. Place stick of staples in bottom channel so legs are
pointing up(Fig 4)
For brad and pin nails,place only on left side,push
slide closed,making sure the latch engages.
5. For brads, Be sure nail heads are pointing down.
For pin, be sure the flat end are pointing down, and
the sharp tip are pointing up. Push slide closed,
making sure that latch engages. (Fig 5).
STAPLES: Place staples into magazine from
STAPLE LENGTH GUIDELINES
Can be used on window screens & shades, light draperies, shelf papers, closet lining, etc.
Can be used on light upholstery and other relatively thin materials.
Can be used on insulation, weather stripping, wire mesh, carpet pads, canvas and other
materials of moderate strength where material thickness is up to about 3/16'' maximum.
Can be used where thickness of material being stapled is substantial, for example,
foam insulation board or heavy folded draperies(about 1/4''(6.3mm) to (9.5mm) thick).
(For cable 6mm max wire dia 50 V max voltage)

5.2 Firing your tool
1. To fire your tool, make sure tool is powered on.
place down on your workpiece depressing the
contact safety on the front of the tool. Once the
contact safety is depressed, push the trigger to fire
your staple. You must pick up the front of the tool and
reactivate the contact safety for each shot. The tool
will operate in low temperatures down to 32°F (0°C)
and in higher temperatures up to 104°F (40°C).
5.3 How to determine proper staple leg size
In choosing the proper staple leg length for a job,
there are two basic things to consider:
1. Thickness of material to be stapled.
2. Hardness of the wood.As a general rule, in
hardwood, approximately 1/4"penetration into the
wood is sufficient...and for softwood, up to
approximately 3/8"should be sufficient. The staple
should be flush with the underlying surface, as
shown in (Fig 8a). However, if the staple used is not
flush with the underlying surface, as shown in (Fig
8b)– this means that too long a leg length has been
used.In that case, we recommend the next shorter
leg length for desired results.
