Clearing Jammed Staples
The most frequent situation that may occur
with any type of stapler is a staple jam. A
jammed staple must be cleared before
using the stapler again. The two places
where a staple can get jammed are the
magazine and the discharge area.
To clear a jammed staple from the dis-
charge area:
1. Disconnect the stapler from the air
supply!
2. Remove all of the staples from the
magazine.
3. Flip the quick release latch on the
nose of the pliers, and remove from
the nose as shown in Figure 5.
4. The jammed staple should now be
visible; remove it from the discharge
area with needle nose pliers.
5. Replace the quick release latch. Place
undamaged staples back on the mag-
azine and engage the pusher.
To clear a jammed staple from the maga-
zine:
1. Disconnect the stapler from the air
supply!
2. Pull the magazine pusher all the way
back.
3. Locate and remove the jammed sta-
ple with a pair of needle nose pliers.
4. Place undamaged staples back on the
magazine and engage the pusher.
