WARNING:
Always keep your fingers away from the discharge area
of the tool when driving a fastener. Failure to keep fingers
out of the way can result in serious personal injury.
ALIGNING THE TOOL
See Figure 4, page 10.
Before using tool, check top alignment path that corresponds
with the type of fastener being used.
Side alignment indicator shows location of fastener ejection.
For staples:
„ Crown of stapler spans across entire path.
„ Driving will apply to both ends of the path.
For nails:
„ Driving will apply only to farthest right side of the path.
DRIVING A STAPLE
See Figures 5 - 7, page 10.
Drive a test staple in a scrap piece of the same material you
will be using for your project to test for desired drive force.
„ To test for desired depth, use a scrap piece of the same
material you will be using for your project.
„ Hold the handle firmly with the nose of the tool flat against
the workpiece at a 90° angle.
„ Press the activation foot of the tool down against the
workpiece. If fastening wire, ensure the wire is centered
in the notch at the top of the tool. The activation foot must
be depressed before pulling the switch trigger.
NOTE: Only use round staples when installing low voltage
wire.
„ To staple low voltage wire make sure no power is con-
nected to the wire being fastened. Align center notch in
order to avoid piercing wire.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other part could create a hazard or cause
product damage.

„ Pull the switch trigger to drive a staple.
„ The tool will drive another staple each time the trigger is
depressed as long as the activation foot is depressed.
„ Harder materials will require greater drive force.
NOTE: After stapling, ensure that the wire was not damaged
during installation. This can cause a short circuit leading to
electrical shock or a fire hazard.
DRIVING A NAIL
See Figures 5 and 8, pages 10 - 11.
Drive a test staple in a scrap piece of the same material you
will be using for your project to test for desired drive force.
„ To test for desired depth, use a scrap piece of the same
material you will be using for your project.
„ Hold the handle firmly with the nose of the tool flat against
the workpiece at a 90° angle.
„ Press the activation foot of the tool down against the
workpiece. The activation foot must be depressed before
pulling the switch trigger.
„ Pull the switch trigger to drive a nail.
„ The tool will drive another nail each time the trigger is
depressed as long as the activation foot is depressed.
„ Harder materials will require greater drive force.
REMOVING A JAMMED FASTENER
See Figure 9, page 11.
If there is a jammed fastener in the tool, you must remove it
before further use. Attempting to drive a fastener while the
tool is jammed could damage the mechanism.
„ Remove the battery pack.
„ Hold the tool upside down. Squeeze the magazine latch
and slide the magazine open.
„ Remove unused fasteners.
„ Remove the jammed fastener with needle-nose pliers.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and can be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
