Frequently Asked Questions - 071-018 Meec Tools

What type of fasteners can I use with the Meec Tools 071-018 stapler?

You can use 18-gauge nails from 3/4" to 2" long, or staples from 5/8" to 1-9/16" long. Ensure the fasteners are undamaged and appropriate for your application.

What air pressure should I set for the tool?

The recommended operating air pressure is between 60 and 100 PSI. Start at the lower end and adjust as needed to achieve proper fastener depth. Use a regulator to control pressure.

How do I load staples or nails into the magazine?

Press down the lock to release the movable magazine, then pull it out fully. Place a set of fasteners in the fixed magazine (up to 100 nails or 150 staples). Push the movable magazine forward until it locks into place.

How do I lubricate the tool?

Before each use, add two drops of compressed air oil (included) into the air connection. If you have an in-line lubricator, keep it filled. Lubrication ensures smooth operation and prevents wear.

Why are fasteners being driven too deep?

Possible causes: air pressure too high or a worn shock absorber. First, reduce the air pressure using the regulator. If the problem persists, replace the shock absorber (contact authorized service).

What should I do if there is an air leak near the trigger?

An air leak by the trigger may be due to a damaged O-ring or valve spindle. Check and replace the O-ring in the trigger valve, or the valve head or spindle/seal/O-ring if damaged. Use only approved spare parts.

The tool is working slowly or lacks power. What could be wrong?

Common causes: insufficient lubrication, low air supply, a damaged spring in the cylinder head, or a blocked blow-off. Add oil, check the compressor and hose, or replace damaged internal parts. If unsure, contact a service center.

How do I clean and maintain the stapler?

Keep the tool clean and dry. Use a filter/lubricator unit to improve performance and life. Do not use flammable cleaning solvents; they can damage O-rings. Do not immerse the tool.

What safety precautions should I take when using this tool?

Always wear ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses and hearing protection. Keep children away. Do not use on scaffolding or ladders. Never use oxygen or flammable gases. Ensure proper footing and avoid loose clothing. Disconnect air supply when not in use.

Can I use this tool for hard materials like concrete or steel?

No. Do not fire the tool at hard or fragile materials such as concrete, steel, or tiles. It is designed for wood and similar materials. Using it on hard surfaces can cause injury or damage the tool.

- Wear eye protection. Safety glasses must meet ANSI Z87.1 standards. Safety glasses will protect against flying particles from in front and from the sides. Wear eye protection when you are loading, using or servicing the tool.

- Wear ear protection. High noise levels in the work area can cause hearing impairment.

- Do not use oxygen, flammable gases, gases in cylinders or pressurised gases to power the tool. The tool can explode and cause serious injuries.

- Wear appropriate clothing. Wear protective clothing and non-slip shoes or safety shoes when you are working with the tool. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewellery. They can get caught in moving parts. Wear a hair net to prevent your hair from becoming caught in the tool.

- Do not fire the tool at hard materials. Do not attempt to fire the tool at hard or fragile materials such as concrete, steel or tiles.

- Stand correctly when using the tool. Always maintain a firm footing and good balance in order to avoid injuries.

- Check for damaged parts. Carefully check that none of the parts are damaged before using the tool.

- Replacement of parts and accessories. Only use approved spare parts and accessories for servicing.

ASSEMBLY

The compressed air tool is supplied fully assembled. Before using the tool, connect the compressed air supply and the required compressed air accessories. See fig. 1 for recommended accessories and order of connection. Check that the air hose is not pressurised when you install or dismantle adapters for the compressed air supply.

Connect the tool to the compressed air supply

1. Check whether the tool needs to be lubricated. If necessary, add two drops of oil into the compressed air connection, see fig. 2. If you are using a lubricator, check whether you need to top up with oil.
2. Turn on the compressor and set the correct pressure on the regulator for the type of fastener being used.
3. Connect the tool to the compressed air supply (see recommended setting).

Loading fasteners

1. Press down the lock to release the movable magazine and pull out the magazine fully, see fig. 3.
2. Place a set of fasteners of the right type and size in the fixed magazine. Up to 150 fasteners can be loaded in the magazine. Press the movable magazine forwards until it locks into place.

OPERATION

Use a sample piece to check how deep the fasteners are driven in before you start using the tool. If the fasteners are driven in too deep or not deep enough, adjust the air pressure using the regulator.

1. Connect the tool to the compressed air supply. Check that the air pressure is within the correct

ENGLISH

• Dirt and water in the compressed air are common causes of compressed air tools becoming worn. A filter/lubricating unit provides improved performance and a longer life. The filter must have the correct flow capacity.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for better and safer work. Do not use a flammable cleaning solution. IMPORTANT! Such solutions can damage the O-ring and other parts of the tool, and should only be used if necessary. DO NOT IMMERSE THE TOOL.
