Proper use

The cordless stapler is designed for stapling and fastening textiles, leather and wood with the appropriate staples. The cordless stapler is designed for temporary operation. If  operated continuously, the stapler will become hot and the increasing heat will reduce its performance. When hot, interrupt your work and allow the cordless stapler to cool.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse.
The user /operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Wear ear-muff s.
The impact of noise can cause damage to hearing.
Total vibration values (vector sum of three directions)
were determined in accordance with EN
60745-1 and EN
60745-2-16.
Vibration emission value ah= 6.675 m/s2
K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s2
The specifi ed vibration value was established in accordance with a standardized testing method. It may change according to how the electric equipment is used and may exceed the specifi ed value in exceptional circumstances.
The specified vibration value can be used to compare the equipment with other electric power tools.
The specifi ed vibration value can be used for initial assessment of a harmful effect.

Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

• Only use appliances which are in perfect working order.
• Service and clean the appliance regularly.
• Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
• Do not overload the appliance.
• Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.
• Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
• Wear protective gloves.

Caution!
Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in accordance with instructions, certain residual risks cannot be rules out.
The following hazards may arise in connection with the equipment’s construction and layout:

1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not properly guided and maintained.

Before starting the equipment

Hazard! Charge the battery only with the charging unit supplied.
5.1 Charging the battery (Fig. 2)
The battery is protected from exhaustive discharge. An integrated protective circuit automatically switches off the equipment when the battery is flat.
Note! Do not actuate the On/Off switch any more if the protective circuit has tripped. This may damage the battery.
Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate. Plug the battery charger (6) in the plug socket and connect the charging cable (5) to the charging connection (a). The charging process starts as soon as the charging cable is connected to the charging adapter.
The red LED on the indicator (7) indicates that the battery is being charged. When the charging has fi nished, the red LED will go out and the green LED will begin to shine. If the indicator (7) flashes red and green alternately, this means that the temperature is too low or high. Keep the tool at room temperature for a day and try again. If the indicator (7) continues to fl ash red and green alternately, the battery is defective. A defective battery is not allowed to be used any more.
If only the red LED fl ashes, the adapted charging function is active. Reason: Exhaustive discharge.
For safety reasons the charging is performed less quickly until the normal charge has been reached.
Note! The handle may become a little warm during the charging process.
This is normal.
If the battery fails to charge, please check

• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
• whether there is good contact at the charging contacts of the charging unit

If the battery still fails to charge, send

• the charging unit
• and the battery pack to our customer service center.

5.2 Inserting the staples (Fig. 3)

• Press the magazine slide (3) together using your thumb and index finger.
• Pull the magazine slide toward the rear of the cordless stapler and out.
• Fill the magazine with staples (b) as shown in Fig. 3.
• Then push the magazine slide back in until it snaps noticeably into place.

Note!
It must be possible to move the magazine slide without applying much force. Watch out for jammed staples.
Filling level indicator
The fi lling level indicator (4) shows you if there are still enough staples in the magazine. If necessary, refill the magazine as described above.
Avoid operating the trigger (1) if there are no staples or nails in the magazine.

Operation

6.1 Operation (Fig. 3)
Before starting your work, always check the filling level indicator (4) to see if the magazine contains staples and is properly closed with the magazine slide (3).
6.2 Triggering (Fig. 1)
The built-in trigger locks prevent the cordless stapler from being triggered accidentally.
Triggering is only possible by pressing the head (2) of the cordless stapler against the material and operating the trigger (1).

6.3 Indicator (Fig. 2/Item 7)
The indicator (7) indicates the battery charge level during charging (see section 5.1). In addition, the green LED shines while the staples are being stapled.
If the LED fl ashes red during operation, the battery is empty.
Charge the battery.

Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Hazard!
Never touch the head of the stapler while carrying out cleaning and maintenance work.
7.1 Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at  low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment.

Ensure that no
water can seep into the device.
The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.

7.2 Maintenance
There is a risk of staples becoming jammed particularly when the cordless stapler is held at any angle when operated.
To remove them, pull the magazine slide (3) toward the rear of the cordless stapler and out, and carefully remove the jammed staples using suitable pliers. Push the magazine  slide (3) back in until it stops and snaps noticeably into place.
There are no other parts inside the equipment which require maintenance.
