Staple Gun Safety Notes

Before Operating A Staple Gun:

• Ensure all air hoses are located where they will not be damaged. Example: - not across walkways.
• All guards are fitted and undamaged.
   Example: Guards around any belts.
• Ensure the air tank has been drained of moisture.
• Staples can be reloaded without removing the gun from the air line as a safety switch on staple gun’s nose prevents staples being fired accidently while staples are loaded. However, as there is more handling required when removing jammed staples, it is recommended that the stapler be removed from the air line.
