Safety Information
Always observe basic safety precautions when using hand tools to reduce the risk of injury.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, to protect against flying debris.
- Keep hands and fingers clear of the stapling mechanism and staple exit area.
- Ensure the stapler is pointed away from yourself and others when not in use or when loading/unloading staples.
- Do not attempt to staple materials that are too hard or thick for the tool, as this can cause staples to jam or ricochet.
- Store the tool in a safe place, out of reach of children.
- Do not modify the tool or use it for purposes other than its intended design.

Operating Instructions
1. Using the Hand Stapler
- Position the Stapler: Place the stapler firmly against the material you wish to staple, ensuring the nose of the stapler is flat against the surface.
- Apply Pressure and Staple: Squeeze the handle firmly and completely until a staple is driven into the material. Release the handle to prepare for the next staple.
- Check Staple Depth: Inspect the stapled material to ensure the staple is fully embedded. If not, adjust your technique by applying more consistent pressure or checking the material suitability.
