FAQs
What size staples does this tool accept?
This staple gun accepts standard T50 staples ranging from 4mm to 14mm in length.
Can I use this staple gun on hardwoods?
Yes, but you may need to use shorter staples and ensure the strength setting is adjusted to the maximum position for the best penetration.
Is this tool suitable for left-handed users?
Yes, the palm-squeeze trigger mechanism is symmetrical and functions equally well for both left and right-handed users.
How do I adjust the driving force?
Use the integrated 2-way control switch located on the top or side of the unit to toggle between high and low power settings.
What material is the body made of?
The body is constructed from robust A3 steel with a protective chrome plating for added durability.
Troubleshooting
Staples jamming inside the magazine
Check that you are using genuine or compatible T50 staples of the correct length and ensure the magazine channel is free of bent staples or debris.
Staples are not driving fully into the material
Adjust the 2-way strength switch to the higher setting and ensure you are applying firm, downward pressure on the handle before squeezing.
Handle feels stiff or difficult to press
Ensure the magazine is not overfilled and check the internal spring for any obstructions; a light application of silicone lubricant to the track can also assist operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To load the staple gun, pull the slide strip magazine out from the rear of the tool, insert the T50 staples (4-14mm) into the channel, and slide the magazine back until it clicks securely. For maintenance, keep the moving parts free of debris by occasionally blowing out the channel with compressed air. It is recommended to store the tool in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the chrome plating and the internal spring mechanism. Periodically check that the magazine latch is fully engaged to ensure consistent staple delivery.
