Disconnect the tool from the power supply if the fastener is jammed in the tool. When removing jammed fasteners, the tool
can be activated accidentally if it is switched on.
Be careful when removing jammed fasteners. The mechanism may be compressed and the fastener may be released with
considerable force when removing the jam.
Do not use the tool to attach electrical cables. The tool is not designed to install electrical cables and may damage the insula-
tion of electrical cables causing a risk of electric shock or fi re.
PREPARING FOR WORK
Caution! All operations described in this section must be carried out with the supply voltage disconnected. The battery must be
removed from the tool's socket.
Staple replenishment and replacement
Caution! Do not press the trigger when replacing or replenishing staples.
Press and hold the magazine latch and eject its inner part (II).
Remove previously loaded fasteners from the magazine.
Place the staples in the magazine so that one of their legs is inside the slot of the inner part of the magazine and the other is
outside the slot (III).
Close the magazine by inserting its inner part so that the magazine latch engages. A properly closed magazine cannot be opened
other than by pressing and holding the latch.
Nail replenishment and replacement
Caution! Do not press the trigger when replacing or replenishing nails.
Press and hold the magazine latch and eject its inner part (II).
Remove previously loaded fasteners from the magazine.
Place the nails in the magazine so that they are inside the slot of the inner part of the magazine (IV).
Close the magazine by inserting its inner part so that the magazine latch engages. A properly closed magazine cannot be opened
other than by pressing and holding the latch.
Warning! Regardless of the fastener type selected, the inner part of the magazine should not encounter any resistance during
insertion. Do not close the magazine forcefully, as this may damage the tool. If the resistance increases during magazine insertion,
open the magazine and check that the fasteners do not exceed the permissible dimensions and that they are correctly positioned
in the magazine.
Tool power supply
Only one of the following STHOR Li-Ion 20 V batteries can be used to power the tool: 78250, 78252, which can only be charged
using STHOR 78260 or 78261 chargers. It is forbidden to use other batteries with a diff erent rated voltage and not matching the
tool battery socket. It is forbidden to modify the socket or battery to make them match.
Slide the battery into the socket with the contacts facing towards the inside of the tool, until the battery latch engages. Make sure
that the battery will not slide out on its own during operation. Disconnect the battery by pressing and holding the latch and then
pulling the battery out of the tool housing.
PRODUCT OPERATION
Caution! Before starting work, it is advisable to carry out tests on waste materials.
Grasp the product by the handle grip so that the trigger is not pressed.
Apply the tool so that the damper is located at the fastener fi ring spot.
Press the tool against the surface so that the damper is fully pushed into the tool and the fastener outlet rests against the surface.
Press the trigger (VI) to fi re the fastener into the surface.
Release pressure on the trigger before pulling the tool away from the surface.
Pull the tool away from the surface and check the result of the work. Make adjustments using the wheel (V) if the fastener is fi red
too shallow or too deep. Turning the wheel in the direction marked "+" will increase the fastener fi ring depth and turning it in the
direction marked "-" will decrease the fastener fi ring depth.
Lift the tool and move it to the next fastener fi ring spot and repeat the fi ring procedure.
When work is complete, disconnect the battery from the tool and remove any remaining fasteners from the magazine.
Caution! When fi ring staples into soft wood (e.g. pine, spruce), it is advisable not to press the stapler too hard against the surface.
This can result in leaving marks in the wood.
