Setup and Loading

These staples are compatible with Rexel Giant and Rexel Goliath heavy-duty staplers. Ensure your stapler is designed for No.66/8 mm staples before loading.

1. Open the Stapler: Locate the staple loading mechanism on your Rexel Giant or Goliath stapler. This typically involves pressing a release button or pulling a lever to open the staple channel.
2. Insert Staples: Carefully place a strip of Rexel No.66/8 mm staples into the open channel. Ensure the staple strip is oriented correctly, with the crown (flat top) facing upwards and the legs pointing downwards.
3. Close the Stapler: Gently push the staple channel back into its closed position until it locks securely. Do not force it.
4. Test: Perform a test staple on a few scrap sheets of paper to confirm proper loading and function.

Operating Instructions

Using Rexel No.66/8 mm Heavy Duty Staples with a compatible stapler is straightforward.

1. Prepare Documents: Align the sheets of paper you wish to staple, ensuring they are neatly stacked. The maximum capacity for these staples is 40 sheets of 80 gsm paper. Exceeding this limit may result in stapler jams or incomplete stapling.
2. Position Document: Place the aligned document under the stapler head, positioning it where you want the staple to be inserted.
3. Apply Pressure: Firmly press down on the stapler handle until the staple fully penetrates the paper and clinches on the underside. Release the handle.
4. Verify: Check that the staple is securely fastened and the paper sheets are held together.

Maintenance Guidelines

Proper care ensures the longevity of your staples and stapler.

• Storage: Store staples in their original packaging in a dry environment to prevent rust and damage. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures or humidity.
• Compatibility: Always use the correct staple size (No.66/8 mm) for your heavy-duty stapler. Using incorrect staples can lead to frequent jams and damage to the stapler mechanism.
• Cleanliness: Periodically inspect your stapler for any staple fragments or debris that might accumulate in the loading channel. Remove any obstructions carefully.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues while using your Rexel No.66/8 mm Heavy Duty Staples, consider the following:

• Stapler Jams:
  • Ensure you are using the correct staple size (No.66/8 mm).
  • Check for any bent or misaligned staples within the stapler's loading channel. Remove and replace if necessary.
  • Avoid overfilling the stapler's staple channel.
• Staples Not Penetrating Paper:
  • Verify that the number of sheets does not exceed the stapler's maximum capacity (40 sheets for these staples).
  • Ensure sufficient force is applied when pressing the stapler handle.
  • Inspect the stapler's clinching mechanism for wear or damage. A worn clincher may not properly bend the staple legs.
• Staples Bending or Breaking:
  • This can occur if stapling too many sheets or if the paper material is unusually thick or dense.
  • Ensure the staples are not old or corroded from improper storage.
