3.1. Loading Staples

1. Consult Tool Manual: Always refer to the instruction manual of your specific BOSTITCH stapler or fastening tool for precise loading instructions.
2. Safety First: Ensure the tool is disconnected from its power source (if pneumatic or electric) and pointed away from yourself and others before loading.
3. Open Magazine: Locate and open the staple magazine or loading tray on your tool.
4. Insert Staples: Carefully insert the strip of BOSTITCH STCR50191/2-1M staples into the magazine, ensuring the crown (top) of the staples faces the correct direction as indicated by your tool's design.
5. Close Magazine: Securely close the staple magazine until it latches firmly.

3.2. Operation

1. Prepare Workpiece: Ensure the material you are fastening is clean, dry, and free of obstructions.
2. Position Tool: Place the nose of the stapler firmly against the workpiece at the desired fastening point.
3. Activate Tool: Engage the trigger or activation mechanism of your stapler to drive the staple. Apply consistent pressure to ensure proper staple penetration.
4. Inspect Fastening: After each staple, inspect the fastening to ensure it is flush and secure. Adjust tool settings or technique if staples are not fully driven or are bent.

4. Care and Storage

Proper care and storage of your BOSTITCH staples will ensure their longevity and optimal performance when needed.

• Dry Environment: Store staples in a cool, dry place to prevent rust and corrosion. Humidity can degrade the staples and affect their performance.
• Original Packaging: Keep staples in their original packaging until ready for use to protect them from dust, moisture, and physical damage.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose staples to extreme heat or cold, as this could potentially affect the integrity of the collation adhesive.
• Keep Away from Children: Store staples out of reach of children and pets.

6. Safety Information

While staples themselves pose minimal direct hazard, it is crucial to handle them responsibly and always adhere to safety guidelines when using them with a fastening tool.

• Sharp Points: Staples have sharp points. Handle with care to avoid punctures or cuts.
• Eye Protection: Always wear appropriate eye protection when operating any stapling tool to guard against flying debris or ricocheting staples.
• Tool Safety: Follow all safety instructions provided with your stapling tool, including proper loading, operation, and maintenance procedures.
• Proposition 65 Warning: This product may expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

7. Troubleshooting

Staples themselves typically do not require troubleshooting. Most issues encountered during fastening are related to the stapling tool or the material being fastened. Refer to your tool's instruction manual for detailed troubleshooting steps.

Common Tool-Related Issues (and how staples might be involved):

• Staple Jams: Ensure staples are correctly loaded and are the correct size and type for your tool. Damaged or bent staple strips can cause jams.
• Inconsistent Driving: Verify that the staples are fully seated in the magazine. Ensure the tool's depth adjustment is set correctly for the material.
• Staples Not Feeding: Check if the staple pusher is functioning correctly and if the staple strip is not stuck or damaged.

If problems persist, contact BOSTITCH customer support or a qualified service technician.
