WARNING! It is important that all operators
read, understand, and practice all safety,
operating, and maintenance instructions
before using this unit to reduce risk of bodily
injury to everyone involved.
STAPLE SELECTION/CLINCH
1. Proper staple leg length selection is dependent on
the thickness and quantity of individual material
layers to be fastened. Since the head assembly is
only able to compress the top layer of corrugated
slightly, thicker materials must use longer leg staples
to penetrate all layers sufficiently and supply a
quality closure.
2. A proper clinch is attained when the staple legs are
bent sufficiently to hold the corrugated layers tightly
together without the points tearing back through the
inside corrugate liner. Excessive clinch can cause
loss of holding strength. (See Figure 1)
