Resumen del manual
If you plan on installing a filter/lubricator/ regulator unit in your compressed air system, always follow the connection instructions that come with the unit. Exceeding the maximum permissible operating pressure may cause the stapler to explode, blowing metal fragments in all directions. To protect yourself from serious personal injury, DO NOT allow your air compressor to exceed the recommended pressure when connected to this stapler! Safety Yoke Mechanism A safety yoke mechanism (bump fire) on the nose of the stapler acts as a secondary safety device. When the trigger is pressed, the stapler will not fire until the safety yoke mechanism is depressed. Before you use your stapler for the first time, check the safety yoke mechanism to ensure proper function. To do this: 1. Make sure the stapler is disconnected from the air supply! 2. Make sure the magazine is empty and contains no staples. 3. Make sure the trigger and the safety yoke mechanism move up and down without sticking. 4. Connect the stapler to the air supply. 5. Without pressing the trigger, depress the safety yoke mechanism against a scrap piece of wood that is clean and free of any knots, staples, or other foreign objects. If the stapler does not fire, then the safety yoke mechanism is working correctly. If the stapler does fire when you do this, immediately disconnect the stapler from the air supply and call our customer service for help. Similarly if the stapler fires when the trigger is pulled, without the safety yoke mechanism being depressed, then the stapler is not working properly. If either of these two conditions develop after you have used your stapler for a period of time, check the lubrication of these mechanisms. The safety yoke is a mechanical device that can fail. Never rely on the safety yoke mechanism as an excuse to point the stapler at yourself or any bystanders. Serious injury may occur.

Figure 1. Releasing magazine latch. 3. Pull back the magazine cover until it stops. 4. Point the stapler up and insert a stick of staples into the magazine as shown in Figure 2. Make sure that the pointed ends of the staples point in the same direction as the stapler nose piece. Figure 2. Loading staples into stapler. 5.Push the magazine cover forward until the magazine latch locks in place. -6- G6042/G6043 18 Gauge Stapler Kit Operating Stapler If you have not read the safety instructions in this manual, do not operate the stapler. Before you operate your stapler, place one drop of the included oil into the quick connect fitting where the stapler connects to the air supply. Fire the EMPTY stapler 3-4 times before beginning, so oil does not come out onto the project during regular operation. To operate your stapler: 1. Connect the air supply to the quick connect fitting. 2. Test the loaded stapler for proper penetration. Hold the stapler perpendicular to the surface of a piece of clean scrap wood that is thick enough for the length of staples you have loaded. Depress the safety yoke mechanism on your workpiece. 3. Before pressing the trigger, make sure your free hand is positioned out of the way of a potential path of a staple in case of deflection. (Deflection is caused when the staple changes its path, resulting in the staple puncturing the surface of the workpiece as shown in Figure 3.) Figure 3. Example of staple deflection. Besides damaging your workpiece, deflection can cause injury if your free hand is securing the workpiece in the location that the staple deflects. 4. Press 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 make the staple go deeper and less air pressure will decrease the staple penetration. G6042/G6043 18 Gauge Stapler Kit -7 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 discharge area. Always disconnect air from stapler whenever clearing a jammed staple! To clear a jammed staple from the magazine: 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 staple with a pair of needle nose pliers. Close the magazine cover so it latches. To clear a jammed staple from the discharge 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 magazine closed and snap the quick release latch back into operating position. -8- G6042/G6043 18 Gaug...
