ple in case of deflection. (Deflection is
caused when the staple changes its
path, resulting in the staple puncturing
the surface of the workpiece as
shown in Figure 4.)
Besides damaging your workpiece,
deflection can cause injury if your free
hand is securing the workpiece in the
location that the staple deflects.
4. Press the trigger. If the staple drove
into the wood far enough, continue
with your intended operations. If the
staple either went too far or not far
enough, then adjust the air pressure.
More air pressure will make the staple
go deeper and less air pressure will
decrease the staple penetration.

If you have not read the safety instruc-

stapler.
