To drive a staple, you may place the contact element against the workpiece and pull the trigger, or No. 1 method is for continuous stapling. No. 2 method is for intermittent stapling, when you wish to drive a staple carefully and very accurately. 2 Slip the air socket of the air hose onto the air fitting on the stapler. Be sure that the air socket locks firmly into position when installed onto the air fitting. A hose coupling must be installed on or near the tool in such a way that the pressure reservoir will discharge at the time the air supply coupling is disconnected. CAUTION: • However when the tool is set to the "Intermittent Staplling" mode, WITH THE TRIGGER HELD IN A HALF-PULLED POSITION, an unexpected stapling could occur, if contact element is allowed to re-contact against the workpiece or the other surface under the influence of recoil. In order to avoid this unexpected stapling, perform as follows; A. Do not place the contact element against the workpiece with excessive force. B. Pull the trigger fully and hold it on for 1-2 seconds after stapling. For No. 2 method, the OPTIONAL SEQUENTIAL TRIP TRIGGER (SINGLE SHOT PART) is used . Replace the trigger part with this. 6
