l To prevent accidental actuation and possible injury, always disconnect power supply, take extra care:
1. When loading the tool. 2. Before making adjustments. 3. When servicing the tool. 4. When clearing a jam.
5. When tool is not in use. 5. When moving to a different work area, as accidental actuation may occur,
possibly causing injury.
l Read the additional Safety & Operating instructions booklet before using tool.

may be done to the threads resulting in jamming the clincher holder during adjustment.
l Do not oil excessively as spotting may occur on the workpiece.
l Ensure that the feet are attached securely and that the machine is installed on a flat and level surface
before operating.
Loading (FS32C, FS35A, FSSW)
1. Pull pusher backwards until it stops on the pusher pivots, then rotate pusher into position (Fig. 1).
2. Insert 4 sticks of staples into the magazine from the back. Let the staples slide forwards to the front of the
magazine (Fig. 2).
3. Pull pusher back to the upright position and gently let the pusher slide forward against the staples (Fig. 3).
Loading (FSAR/FSSWC)
1. Lift the staple cassette spindle upwards, off the vertical posts (Fig. 4).
2. Slide the staple roll on to the spindle (Fig. 5).
3. Lower the staple cassette spindle back into position onto the vertical posts (Fig. 6).
4. Unroll the staples from the bottom of the roll and begin guiding them towards the mouth of the conveyor (Fig. 7).
5. Keep sliding the staples along the magazine until they are engaged by the magazine feed (Fig. 8).

2. Pull the cover plate away from the tool and clear the jam (Fig. 10).
3. Replace the cover plate and tighten bolts (Fig. 11).
Fastener Adjustment (FSSW only)
The FSSW requires adjustment to use SW7437 or SW9040 staples as follows:
1. Remove the four screws that hold plate 016 in place (Fig 12 and 13)
2. If using SW7437 staples configure the plate (016) is fitted as shown in Fig 12. If using SW9040 staples
configure the plate (016) is fitted as shown in Fig 13. The name of the required fastener family should be
diaplyed.
3. Refit the plate by refitting the four screws.
