ERROR Reset tool by removing and reinserting battery pack or cycling trigger lock off. If error code persist, take tool to an authorized DeWALT service center. Tool Free Stall Release (Fig. L) If the stapler is used in harder material where all available energy in the motor is used to drive a fastener, the tool may stall. The driver will not complete the drive cycle and the jam/stall indicator will flash. Rotate the tool free stall release 8 on the tool and the mechanism will release. NOTE: The tool will disable itself and not reset until the battery pack has been removed and reinserted. If the driver does not automatically return to the home position, proceed to Clearing a Jammed Staple. If the unit continues to stall please review the material and fastener length to be sure that it is not too rigorous an application. The stapler could also be overheated and needs time to cool before further use. Fig. L 8 Clearing a Jammed Staple (Fig. A, M) WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, disconnect battery pack from tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, servicing, or moving the tool. Such preventative safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. CAUTION: When removing a jammed staple, DO NOT orient the stapler with the nose up or with the battery foot up. Positioning the stapler this way makes the jammed staple or pieces of the staple more likely to be ingested into the stapler. If any portion of a staple is ingested into the tool, the staple should be retrieved by removing the top cap. If a staple becomes jammed in the nosepiece, keep the tool pointed away from you and follow these instructions to clear: 1. Remove battery pack 14 from tool and engage trigger lock-off 2 . 2. After laying the tool on its side, slide the spring-loaded pusher latch 12 to the base of the magazine to lock it into place and unload staple strip. 3. Rotate the magazine release lever 11 and rotate the magazine 10 forward.
