Setup, Compatibility & Care
To load the staple gun, simply release the latch on the loading track and slide in the compatible light-duty staples. Ensure the staples are aligned correctly before closing the track. Always test the tool on a piece of scrap material to verify the depth before starting your main project. To care for your TR40, keep the moving parts free of debris and dust. If the mechanism feels stiff, you may apply a small amount of light machine oil to the pivot points, but avoid over-lubricating. Store the tool in the locked-down position in a dry environment to prevent rust and accidental activation.
