Introduction and Warranty
Paslode Cordless 16 Gauge Stapler
Operating Manual
T
his manual is intended to acquaint you with the Paslode
Cordless 16 ga.Stapler. Unlike other power fastening
tools, the Cordless Stapler is powered by an internal
combustion linear motor. In simpler terms, your Cordless
Stapler is powered by a motor similar to the one that
powers an automobile. The Cordless Stapler ignites a
fuel and air mixture to produce the energy to drive the
motor, which in turn drives the fastener. As you will see,
the Cordless Stapler is totally self-contained. It carries its
own fuel supply and battery, along with a supply of
fasteners.
For ease of use, this manual is divided into sections (see
Contents). Each section of the manual is written with you,
the tool operator, in mind. We have left out all of the technical
terms so that you can readily understand how to get the
maximum performance from your Cordless Stapler, and
how to avoid damaging the tool or injuring yourself. But, to
accomplish this, we need you to do two things:
1. READ THE MANUAL FROM COVER TO COVER
BEFORE USING THE TOOL.
2. FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL.
The Cordless Stapler should be handled like other power
fastening tools that you use. Like most tools, when used
improperly it could result in injury. If you are going to allow
others to use the Cordless Stapler, it is your responsibility
to make sure that they also read and comply with the
instructions in this manual before attempting to operate
the tool.
