The Rapid 100E is suitable for two different types of stapling and by simple
manipulation can be switched from one to the other:
- Normal stapling with the staple legs folded inwards.
- Pinning with the staple legs folded outwards.
Pinning can be used for stapling small bundles of paper which will be
unstapled later, e.g. for copying. Pinning is easy to remove by pulling out the
staple in its longitudinal direction.
The Rapid 100E is available with various types of magazine suitable for
staples with different wire thickness. Staples of different types are
designated 44 and 66. Always use original Rapid staples.
The Rapid 100E is designed for staples with a leg length of 6 and 8 mm. To
ensure proper stapling the leg length should be at least 3 mm longer than
the thickness of the stapling object.
The type of original Rapid staple that should be used is shown on the front of
the magazine.
