SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Operational Safety Instructions
1) Secure your workpiece. Your workpiece should be clamped with clamping devices or in a vise, this
is much safer than securing your workpiece by hand.
2) Before starting any work on the stapler itself (changing staples, maintenance), as well as when in
storage or in transport, remove the battery from the stapler housing.
3) Keep your fingers away from the staple/nail discharge area, danger of accidental injury.
4) Never point this cordless stapler at any person or aminals. Staples or nails fired from a short
distance can cause conciderable injuries.
5) Do not use this cordless stapler to fasten electrical wiring. Accidental contact with electrical lines
can lead to fire and electric shock.
6) Check walls, ceilings, floors, roofing carefully to avoid possible electric shock, gas leakage,
explosion caused by stapling into live wires, conduits or gas pipes.
7) Only use recommended staples/brad nails as specified in this manual. The use of any other
staples/brad nails may cause the tool to malfunction.
8) Do not operate the tool without staples/brad nails. This shortens the service life of the tool.
9) Never actuate the trigger and the safety lever at the same time unless you are prepared to staple
a workpiece. Never tamper with the safety lever, always make sure it functions properly. If this
safety lever does not function properly, do not use the tool, have it repaired before using again.

2) Protect the battery against heat, continuous sun exposure and fire. Risk of explosion!
3) Keep the battery charger and adaptor away from rain or moisture. Penetration of water in the
battery charger increases the risk of electric shock.

OPERATION
CHARGING 4.8V NI-MH BATTERY
A battery that is new or has not been used for a long period
of time will not develop its full charge capacity until after 5 to
6 hours of charging. It is not recommended to recharge the
battery after use if you do not intend on using the tool for an
extended period of time, recharge the battery when it is
required. Regular charge time is 3 hours.
The battery comes installed in the tool housing, remove the

Charging is complete once the green indicator light turns on.
Once the battery is fully charged, reinsert the battery into the
tool housing and push until the locking tabs snap in place.

that the battery is used and will need to be replaced.

OPERATION
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT- FORCE SELECTOR KNOB
This cordless stapler comes with an adjustable force
selector knob (A) Fig.5 which sets the driving force of the
tool. The driving force required will depend on the type of
staples or brad nails used and the density of the workpiece.
It is recommended to make trial tests in scrap pieces of
wood before driving fasteners in workpiece.
The force selector knob has 6 settings, setting 1 being the
setting with the least amount of force and setting 6 being the
setting with the highest amount of force. Simply turn the
knob to the desired setting. Make sure the knob setting lines up with the front index mark (B). Fig.5
shows the force selector positioned in setting 1.
Once the work is done, it is recommended to set the force
selector knob at setting 1 in order to relieve the spring
tension.

driving force.
4) Press the safety lever (C) against the workpiece and then
squeeze the trigger (D) to drive the fastener. You will hear
the spring recoil and then the fastener will discharge. It
may be necessary to raise the heel of the stapler to get flush results.

most effectively cleaned with the use of an air compressor. Always wear safety glasses when using
an air compressor. if you do not have an air compressor, use a moistened cloth. Ventilation openings
and switch must be kept clean and free of foreign objects. Do not insert pointed objects through these
openings in the attempt to clean them.
Caution: Some cleaning products and solvents can damage the plastic parts of your cordless stapler
such as gasoline, chlorinated cleaning agents, ammonia and household detergents that contain
ammonia.
