SAFETY — Continued
WARNING
When using tools, basic precautions should always be followed, Including the following:
1. Work area
(1) Keep the work area clean and well lighted.
Cluttered benches and dark areas increase the risks
of electric shock, re, and injury to persons.
(2) Do not operate the Stapler in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases, or combustible dust.
The Stapler is able to create sparks resulting in the
ignition of the dust or fumes.
(3) Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away
while operating the Stapler. Distractions are able
to result in the loss of control of the Stapler.
2. Personal safety
(1) Stay alert. Focus on your work and use common
sense when working with the Stapler. Do not use
the Stapler while tired, after having consumed
drugs or alcohol, or while under the in uence of
medication.
A moment of inattention while operating the Stapler
increases the risk of injury to persons.
(2) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair increases the
risk of injury to persons as a result of being caught in
moving parts.
(3) Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure the switch
is o before connecting to the air supply. Do not
carry the Stapler with your nger on the switch or
connect the Stapler to the air supply with the switch on.
(4)
– Disconnect the Stapler
from the air source before making adjustments,
doing Stapler maintenance, clearing jams,
touching the Push Lever, attaching or removing
the nose cap, when not in use, leaving work area,
leaving the Stapler outside of the operator's
supervision or control, loading, or unloading the
Stapler, handing it to another person, elevating,
lowering or otherwise moving the Stapler to a
new location. Never attempt to clear a jam or repair
the Stapler unless you have disconnected air hose
from the Stapler and removed all remaining fasteners
from the Stapler. The Stapler should never be left
unattended since people who are not familiar with the
Stapler might handle it and injure the themselves.
Such precautionary measures reduce the risk of
injury to persons.
(5) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control of the Stapler in unexpected
situations.
(6) Use safety equipment. A dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes and a hard hat must be used for the
applicable conditions.
(7)
– Risk of hearing loss. Wear
hearing protection. Hearing protection shall
have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) determined
in accordance with US Environmental Protection
Agency rules that is appropriate for noise exposure.
(8) Always wear head protection.
Always wear head protection to protect your
head from ying objects.
(9) Do not attach the hose or Stapler to your body.
Attach the hose to the structure to reduce the risk of
loss of balance if the hose shifts.
(10)
– Drive Staples into proper
work surface only. Do not drive staple into other
staples. This is able to cause the fastener to be
de ected and hit someone, or cause the Stapler to
react and result in a risk of injury to persons.
3. Stapler use and care
(1) Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against the body is
unstable and is able to lead to loss of control.
(2) Do not force the Stapler. Use the correct Stapler
for the application. The correct Stapler will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which the Stapler is
designed.

SAFETY — Continued
WARNING
(3) Do not use the Stapler if the switch does not turn
the Stapler on or o . Any Stapler that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Never use Stapler which is defective or operating
abnormally. If the Stapler appears to be operating
unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise
appears defective, stop using it immediately and
arrange for repairs by a metabo HPT authorized
service center.
(4) Disconnect the Stapler from the air source
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing the Stapler. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the Stapler unintentionally.
(5) Store the Stapler when it is idle out of reach of
children and other untrained persons. A Stapler
is dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
(6) Maintain the Stapler with care. Keep the
Stapler Clean and lubricated for better and safer
performance.
(7) Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may a ect the Stapler's operation.
If damaged, have the Stapler serviced before using.
Because of high air pressure in the Stapler, cracks
in the surface are dangerous. To avoid this, do not
drop the Stapler or strike the Stapler against hard
surfaces; and do not scratch or engrave signs on
the Stapler. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained Staplers. There is a risk of bursting if the
Stapler is damaged.
(8) Do not use the Stapler that is not in proper
working order. Tags and physical segregation
shall be used for control.
(9) Use only accessories that are identi ed by
metabo HPT for the speci c Stapler. Use of an
accessory not intended for use with the speci c
Stapler, increases the risk of injury to persons.
(10) Use only those fasteners listed in the
Accessories section of this manual. Fasteners not
identi ed for use with this Stapler by metabo HPT are
able to result in a risk of injury to persons or Stapler
damage when used in this Stapler.
4. Service
(1) Tool service must be performed only by quali ed
repair personnel.
(2) When servicing a Stapler, use only identical
replacement parts. Use only authorized parts.
(3) Use only the lubricants supplied with the Stapler
or speci ed by metabo HPT.
5. Air source
(1) Never connect to an air source that is capable
of exceeding 200 psi (13.7 bar 14 kgf/cm
2
) if a
regulator fails.
Over pressurizing the Stapler is able to result in
bursting, abnormal operation, breakage of the
Stapler or serious injury to persons.
DO NOT EXCEED 120 psi (8.3 bar 8.5 kgf/cm2).
Use only clean, dry, regulated compressed air at the
rated pressure or within the rated pressure range as
marked on the Stapler.
Always verify prior to using the Stapler that the air
source has been adjusted to the rated air pressure or
within the rated air-pressure range.
(2) Never use reactive gases such as oxygen,
carbon dioxide, combustible gases or any
bottled gas as an air source for the Stapler. Such
gases are capable of explosion and serious injury to
persons.
6. Others
(1) Before starting work, check the stapling
operation switching device.
This metabo HPT stapler includes a stapling
operation switching device.
Before starting work, check the setting of the
operation switching device.
If the switching device is not set properly, the Stapler
will not operate correctly.
(2) Always select the switching device that is
appropriate to the application and the training of
the operator.

English
(3) When switching between SINGLE SEQUENTIAL
and CONTACT, disconnect the air hose and
remove all staples.
(4) When the hook is attached, operate only with
SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
and not with CONTACT ACTUATION
MECHANISM.
(5) Be careful of double re and being hit by the
Stapler due to spring back (“recoil”). After driving
a staple, the Stapler may recoil causing it to move
away from the work surface.
To reduce risk of injury always manage recoil by:
1) always maintaining control of the Stapler.
2) allowing recoil to move the Stapler away from
work surface.
3) not resisting recoil such that the Stapler will be
forced back into the work surface. InCONTACT
ACTUATION MECHANISM, if push lever is
allowed to re-contact work surface before the
trigger is released, an unintended discharge of a
staple will occur. In order to avoid this undesirable
double re,
Intermittent operation (Trigger re)
1
Set the switching device to SINGLE
SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM.
2
Pull the trigger rapidly and rmly.
Continuous operation (Push lever re)
1
Set the switching device to CONTACT
ACTUATION MECHANISM.
2
Do not press the Stapler against the wood with
excessive force.
3
Separate the Stapler from the wood as it
recoils after stapling
4) keeping face and body parts away from the
Stapler.
(6) Never Use NON relieving coupler on Stapler.
If a non relieving coupler is used on the Stapler,
the Stapler can remain charged with air after
disconnecting and thus will be able to drive a fastener
even after disconnecting. The Stapler and air hose
must have a hose coupling such that all pressure is
removed from the Stapler when the coupling joint is
disconnected.
(7) Check Push Lever before use. Make sure the
Push Lever operates properly, and is not inoperable,
disconnected, or altered. (The Push Lever may be
called “Safety”.) Never use the Stapler unless the
Push Lever is operating properly, otherwise the
Stapler could drive a fastener unexpectedly. Do not
tamper with or remove the Push Lever, or otherwise
cause the Push Lever to become inoperable.
(8) Keep all screws and covers tightly in place. Keep
all screws and covers tightly mounted.
Check their condition periodically. Never use the
Stapler if parts are missing or damaged.
(9) Do not load fasteners with Trigger or Push Lever
depressed. When loading fasteners into the Stapler
or when connecting the air hose,
1) do not depress the Trigger;
2) do not depress the Push Lever; and
3) keep the Stapler pointed downward.
(10) Keep hands and body away from ring head
during use. Never place your hands or feet closer
than 8 inches (200 mm) from the ring head. A
serious injury can result if the fasteners are de ected
by the workpiece, or are driven away from the point of
entry.
(11) When working close to an edge of a workpiece
or at steep angles, or driving fasteners into
thin workpiece use care to minimize chipping,
splitting or splintering, or free ight, ricochet or
piercing of fasteners, which may cause injury.
(12) Never drive fasteners from both sides of a wall
at the same time. The fasteners can be driven into
and through the wall and hit a person on the opposite
side.
(13) Use extra caution when driving the Stapler into
existing walls or other blind areas to prevent
contact with hidden objects or persons on other
side (eg., wires, pipes).
(14) Check for live wires. Avoid the risk of severe
electrical shock by checking for live electrical wires
that may be hidden by walls, oors or ceilings. Turn
o the breaker switch to ensure there are no live
wires.
(15) Do not lift, pull or lower the Stapler by the hose.

inches (200 mm) from ring head when using.
Do not drive staples into other staples;
staples can ricochet and hurt someone.
Do not actuate Stapler unless Stapler is
placed rmly against the workpiece.
In order to avoid double re or unwanted
ejection of a staple due to bouncing of the
Stapler.
1) do not push Stapler on workpiece with
strong force;
2) take Stapler away from workpiece using
recoil;
3) release trigger quickly when performing
trigger re.
When working close to an edge of a
workpiece or at steep angles, or driving
fasteners into thin workpiece use care to
minimize chipping, splitting or splintering, or
free ight, ricochet or piercing of fasteners,
which may cause injury.
Never drive staples from both sides of a wall
at the same time. Staples can be driven into
and through the wall and hit a person on the
opposite side.

16
English
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may reduce the possibility of bodily injury to you or others
in the work area compared to the CONTACT ACTUATION
MECHANISM. This is because it is less likely to drive
an unwanted staple if you keep the trigger pulled and
accidentally bump the push lever against yourself or
others.
The SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM
may also reduce the speed of operation compared
to the CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM. The
SINGLE SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM is
recommended to inexperienced users.
NOTE:
If all warnings and instructions are followed, safe
operation is possible with all two systems: SINGLE
SEQUENTIAL ACTUATION MECHANISM and
CONTACT ACTUATION MECHANISM.
Always handle staples and package carefully. If
staples are dropped, collating bond may be broken,
which will cause mis-feeding and jamming.
After stapling:
1) disconnect air hose from the Stapler;
2) remove all staples from the Stapler;
3) supply 5 – 10 drops of metabo HPT pneumatic
tool lubricant into the air plug on the Stapler; and
4) open the petcock on the air compressor tank to
drain any moisture.
ADJUSTING THE STAPLING DEPTH
WARNING
When adjusting the Adjuster, be sure to
remove your nger from the trigger and
disconnect the air hose from the stapler.
To assure that each staple penetrates to the same depth,
be sure that:
1) the air pressure to the Stapler remains constant
(regulator is installed and working properly), and
2) the Stapler is always held rmly against the
workpiece.
If staples are driven too deep or shallow into the
workpiece, adjust the stapling in the following order.
1
DISCONNECT AIR HOSE FROM STAPLER.

Choose a suitable position for the adjuster.
NOTE:
The staple might not drive deep enough if using high
pressure with the adjuster set upwards (shallow side)
due to factors such as the material hardness or staple
type.
If that happens, reduce pressure and set the adjuster
to lowest position so the staple drives in at a good
position.
USING THE BLOW NOZZLE
