Bostitch staplers are engineered to effortlessly fasten paper, wood, fabric, and more with gentle force. Heavy-duty variants are tailored for professional environments, ideal for binding reports and tackling construction tasks. These models often utilize pneumatic pressure to secure staples. To replenish staples, you'll need to access the interior of the stapler.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Unlocking the Potential of a Bostitch Heavy-Duty Office Stapler
Place your Bostitch stapler on a sturdy, level surface.
Locate the rear assembly, often referred to as the pusher. Some models feature a red tab protruding from the rear for identification.
Secure the top of the stapler with your non-dominant hand. Avoid placing your hand beneath the stapler.
With your dominant hand, press inward on the rear and then lift it upward to remove. Ensure complete detachment, including the magazine containing the staples.
- For a Bostitch Heavy-Duty EZ Squeeze model, press the button located at the rear to open the magazine at the front. Push the magazine back in for reloading.
Unlocking a Bostitch Heavy-Duty Crown Stapler
Disconnect the pneumatic pressure hose.
Activate the safety mechanism. Typically located near the handle, although not available on all models.
Rotate the stapler so the front is visible, ensuring it's not aimed directly at you.
Locate the release latch, usually positioned near the front and side or front and bottom. Pull it downwards to uncover the magazine for reloading.
Reinsert the magazine securely. Ensure it locks into place before resuming stapling.
