Model W1778 18 Gauge Deep Stapler Kit
DO NOT place your hands near the staple point of entry. A staple can deflect and tear through the surface of the workpiece, puncturing your hand or fingers.
Deflection is caused when grain irregularities, knots or foreign objects inside the wood cause the staple
to change its path, resulting in the staple puncturing the surface of the workpiece, as shown in Figure 5.
Besides damaging your workpiece, deflection can cause injury if your free hand is securing the workpiece in the location that the staple deflects.
Figure 5. Example of staple deflection.
5.Pull the trigger.
—If the staple drove into the wood far enough, continue with your intended operations.
—If the staple either went too far or not far enough, then adjust the air pressure. More air pressure will increase staple depth, less air pressure will decrease staple depth.
Single Fire Operation
The stapler is designed to fire one staple at a time.
To operate your stapler in single fire mode, do these steps:
1.Depress the safety nose mechanism against the workpiece.
2.Pull the trigger, then release the trigger after the staple is driven.
