Press the button for the battery capacity indicator (d). The battery capacity indicator (e) shows the charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs. All 3 LEDs are lit: The battery is fully charged. 2 or 1 LED(s) are lit: The battery has an adequate remaining charge. 1 LED fl ashes: The battery is empty, recharge the battery. All LEDs blink: The battery temperature is too high. Remove the battery from the equipment, keep it at room tem- perature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this me- ans that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.

6.1 Operation (Fig. 2)

Each time before starting to work, use the fi lling level indicator (5) to check if the magazine contains any staples and make sure that the magazine cover (3) is properly closed. Important! Determine the required and optimum depth of penetration of the staples by fi rst using a test workpiece which is similar in structure and material thickness to the workpieces you want to join.

6.2 Triggering shots (Fig. 1)

The built-in trigger catches prevent the cordless stapler from being triggered accidentally. As the result a shot can be triggered only when you press the stapler head (6) of the cordless stapler against the material and actuate the trigger (1). Single shot Set the selector switch for single shot / repeat shot (11) to single shot. Place the stapler head (6) of the cordless stapler against the workpiece ready for stapling. Pull the trigger (1) once and let it go again after each shot. Repeat shot Set the selector switch for single shot / repeat shot (11) to repeat shot. Pull and hold the trigger (1). Each time you now place the trigger catch (6) against the workpiece the cordless stapler will shoot repeatedly until you release the trigger (1). If the staple goes in too far or if it does not go in far enough you can adjust the depth of penetration with the depth adjuster (Fig. 1/Item 9) (see section 6.4). Important! To prevent the cordless stapler from overheating, you must take a break of 20 minutes after approx. 500 shots in repeat mode.

6.3 Jammed staples (Fig. 10-11)

If a staple becomes jammed in the tool, proceed as follows:

Remove the battery from the tool.

Open the magazine cover (3).
