Adjust the depth setting to 'High' and ensure you are applying firm, downward pressure on the head of the stapler during operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you are using the correct size staples or brads ranging from 6mm to 14mm.

Regularly inspect the magazine channel for dust or debris to maintain the integrity of the anti-jam system.

Keep the mechanism lightly oiled if it feels stiff, and avoid dropping the tool to prevent internal misalignment.
