Stanley FatMax 2-in-1 Heavy Duty Staple Gun - FMHT70250-0

This staple gun is compatible with Stanley Type G staples (6-14mm) and Stanley Type J brad pins (12-15mm). It's important to use only these specific types for optimal performance and to prevent jams.

Yes, this is a 2-in-1 tool, meaning it can fire both staples (Type G) and brad pins (Type J), making it versatile for different fastening needs.

There is a switch or lever, typically located near the handle or firing mechanism, that allows you to select either the `high` or `low` power setting. Refer to the tool itself for the exact location of the switch.

The tool features an anti-jam mechanism, but if a jam occurs, first ensure the tool is clear of your hands. Open the magazine, carefully remove any bent or stuck fasteners, and clear any debris before reloading. Do not force the trigger.

No, compatible Stanley Type G staples and Type J brad pins are not included and must be purchased separately.

Yes, it is designed for heavy-duty use and is suitable for tasks such as fixing drywall beads, securing carpets, light fencing, and roofing felt. Its aluminum construction ensures durability.

The staple gun features a clear staple window on the side or bottom of the magazine, allowing you to easily see when your fastener supply is running low and a reload is needed.

First, check the staple window to ensure fasteners are loaded. If loaded, inspect the magazine for any misaligned staples or debris. Remove the fasteners and clear any obstructions. Ensure you are using the correct Stanley Type G staples or Type J brad pins. Apply firm, even pressure when firing.

Ensure the power setting is on `high` for harder materials. If already on `high`, try a shorter staple or pin length if possible. Apply more downward pressure on the tool when firing. The material might be too dense for the current fastener/power setting combination.

This often indicates the fastener is too long for the material's thickness or the material is too hard. Try using a shorter fastener or ensure you are on the `high` power setting. Make sure the material is properly supported from behind, if applicable.

Check if there's any debris or bent fasteners obstructing the magazine track. Clean the track if necessary. Apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., silicone spray, not WD-40) to the moving parts of the magazine mechanism. Ensure you are pressing the release latch fully.

Over time, accumulated dust or lack of lubrication can cause stiffness. Clean the trigger mechanism area and consider a light lubrication of the pivot points on the handle. If the issue persists, inspect for internal damage or obstructions.
