Troubleshooting
Staples are not firing correctly
Check the staple channel for obstructions and ensure you are using the correct staple size between 4mm and 14mm.
Staple is buckling on impact
The force setting may be too high or the gun is not held firmly against the material surface; adjust the power and maintain firm downward pressure.
The handle feels stiff
Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pivot hinges and ensure no staples are jammed inside the magazine track.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To load the staple gun, release the spring-loaded channel at the base, insert your chosen staples (4mm-14mm), and slide the channel shut until it locks. Always use high-quality, compatible staples to ensure smooth operation and prevent jams. For maintenance, keep the interior track free of debris by occasionally blowing out dust or wood shavings. If the mechanism feels sluggish, a light application of machine oil on the pivot points can restore smooth action. Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the metal components.
