Clearing Jammed Staples

The most frequent situation with any type of stapler is a staple jam. A jammed staple must be cleared before using the stapler again. The two places where a staple can get jammed are the magazine and the dis- charge area.

Always disconnect air from stapler whenever clearing a jammed staple!

To clear a jammed staple from the maga- zine:

1.Disconnect the stapler from the air supply!

2. Open the magazine cover and pull the magazine all the way back.

3.Locate and remove the jammed sta- ple with a pair of needle nose pliers. Close the magazine cover so it latch- es.

To clear a jammed staple from the dis- charge area:

1.Disconnect the stapler from the air supply!

2.Remove all of the staples from the magazine.

3.The jammed staple should now be visible; remove it from the discharge area with needle nose pliers.

4.Replace the staples. Push the maga- zine closed and snap the quick release latch back into operating posi- tion.
