To install battery pack:

 

■ Place battery pack in the tool. Align raised rib inside tool 

with groove on battery pack.

 

■ Make sure the latches on each side of the battery pack 

snap into place and battery pack is secured in tool 

before beginning operation.

NOTE:

 Squeeze LED light grip switch to activate stapler.

To remove battery pack:

 

■ Locate latches on battery pack and depress to release 

battery pack from the tool.

NO-MAR PAD
See Figure 4.

The no-mar pad attached to the nose of the tool helps 

prevent marring and denting when working with softer 

woods.

To remove or replace the pad:

 

■ Remove the battery.

 

■ Remove the pad by pulling it down and away from the 

nose.

 

■ To replace the pad, fit it into place over the nose and 

push up to reseat.

On-board storage for the pad is located on the magazine of 

the tool. An extra no-mar pad is provided in the on-board 

storage area.

LOADING THE TOOL WITH STAPLES
See Figures 5 - 6.

 

 WARNING

Keep the tool pointed away from yourself and others 

when loading staples. Failure to do so could result in 

possible serious personal injury.

 

■ Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.

 

■ Hold the tool upside down with the nose pointed upward 

and tilted away from you.

 

■ Squeeze the magazine release button located at the 

rear of the magazine and slide the magazine cover 

open.

 

■ Place staples in the channel with the staple tips pointing 

upward and the crown resting on the bottom of the 

channel.

 

■ Push the magazine cover closed. Make sure it securely 

snaps into place.

 

■ Reinstall battery, and reactivate stapler by pressing the 

work light grip switch.

REMOVING STAPLES FROM THE TOOL
See Figure 7.

 

 WARNING

Remove the battery pack before removing staples or 

clearing a jammed staple. Failure to do so could result in 

serious personal injury.

 

■ Remove battery pack from the tool.

 

■ Depress the magazine release button.

 

■ Remove staples.

 

■ Close the magazine.

SETTING THE AIR PRESSURE
See Figure 8.

The amount of air pressure required will depend on the size 

of the staple and the workpiece material.
Begin testing the depth of drive by driving a test staple into 

the same type of workpiece material used for the actual job.

 

■ Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.

 

■ Turn air pressure dial clockwise to increase air pressure 

or counterclockwise for decreased pressure.

It may be possible to achieve the desired depth with air 

pressure adjustments alone. If finer adjustments are 

needed, use the depth of drive adjustment on the tool.

NOTE:

 Under some conditions, the unit may not deliver 

a fastener when the air pressure dial is turned to the 

maximum pressure setting. The user may need to decrease 

the pressure setting for desired operation.

DEPTH OF DRIVE ADJUSTMENT
See Figure 9.

The driving depth of the staple may be adjusted beyond 

air pressure. It is advisable to test the depth on a scrap 

workpiece to determine the required depth for the 

application.
To determine depth of drive, first adjust the air pressure and 

drive a test staple. To achieve the desired depth, use the 

depth of drive adjustment on the tool. Harder materials and 

longer staples will require more force to drive the staple.

 

■ Remove battery pack from the tool, if installed.

 

■ Turn the depth of drive adjustment left or right to change 

the driving depth.

 

■ Reinstall battery and reactivate the tool by pressing the 

work light grip switch.

 

■ Drive a test staple after each adjustment until the 

desired depth is set.

NOTE:

 Set depth of drive at the shallowest depth that 

will meet your needs.
