Loading the Gun (a) Press in the plate (J), against spring pressure, dislocating the tab (H) from its slot, and with slight downwards movement, remove the pressure rod and spring assembly (G) from the back of the gun. (b) Ensure there are no old or disfigured staples or nails in the gun, as these could cause it to jam (see Maintenance section). Slide the appropriate staples into the carriage as shown below (c) Replace the pressure rod assembly against spring pressure ensuring the end plate tab (H) is correctly located in the slot in the gun body.
- Operating the Gun The gun is operated by first placing it directly over the point to be stapled and holding down firmly with the palm of one hand, on the pressure screw (C) whilst pressing down firmly and progressively on the handle (B), until the gun ‘fires’ and the staple or nail is inserted. To assist in positioning the staple correctly, the front face of the gun has a notch at its base, to indicate the place at which stapling will occur. The notch should be centered over the point to be stapled. If you are using nails, then the edge of the notch is similarly placed over the point to be nailed, (which side, depends upon which carriage rail the nails are located). The pressure screw (C) may be adjusted so that it will apply the appropriate force to the staple or nail, depending upon the material being stapled. Note: The softer the material, the less force will be required to drive in the staple or nail. Excessive force may damage the material being stapled. It is advised therefore, that where necessary, you should slacken off the pressure screw and test its action, progressively increasing the pressure by turning the screw until you determine the pressure required to correctly staple the material without it being damaged. If you are stapling fabric, take care not to use too great a pressure as this may cause the staple to go right through, tearing the fabric. NOTE: A hole is provided in the body, shown at ‘D’, through which the staples may be viewed. By keeping an eye on this,it is possible to determine when a reload is required. MAINTENANCE In the event the gun jams, and/or staples become enmeshed within the gun, proceed as follows: (a) Remove the pressure rod and spring assembly (G). (b) The carriage (E) is held in place by two lugs on its front end, which locate into two slots in the front edge of the gun. Holding the gun firmly, pull back the carriage against spring pressure, using the finger grips (F), on its sides. This will dislocate the lugs from their slots. Apply a downwards pressure on the carriage and release it, allowing it to swing on its hinge as illustrated. NOTE: If difficulty is encountered in pulling back on the lugs, it may be necessary to use a tool (e.g. plyers) to grasp the open end of the carriage and pull back in order to dislocate the lugs. Any damaged material may now be carefully removed using a pair of pliers or similar. When replacing the carriage, ensure it is completely forward and the lugs are fully engaged in their slots. Failure to comply with this rule may cause the gun to jam. IMPORTANT: Always remove the Pressure Rod and Spring Assembly BEFORE dislocating the carriage. Failure to follow this rule could result in personal injury. When you have finished using the gun, always remove any unused staples or nails, and relieve the pressure on the spring by unscrewing the pressure screw (C). Secure the handle with the safety catch (A).
