I don't use it a lot. I use it once every few years. I am not sure if the staples are the problem coz they have been sitting in my drawer for ages, or the stapler itself which has been sitting as well in my drawer for ages. Nearly 30 years.
SOURCE: AS 300 electric stapler--pulled out
What has most likely happened is part of a staple is stuck in the front portion of the stapler where it forms the staple and presses it into the stapler.
You would most likely have to remove the stapler, and remove the binding staple from the stapler head.
SOURCE: Stapler works intermittantly
If not the power source or cord, the next activation point would be the trigger. Does the stapler make any sort of noise when the trigger is depressed? What type and model stapler is it?
SOURCE: Disassembled the stapler now need diagram to reassemble
Found user manual online but no parts breakdown, I have a phone number at 1-800-343-9329 and they might be to email you the breakdown. Wish I had better info but this is all they furnish online.
SOURCE: stapler constantly shoots out staples even when there is nothing to staple.
There is a contact switch / lever on the staplers that engages the stapler when it is pressed. It must be stuck. locate the lever and see if that's the case, and release it if you can. just my 2 cents, because I'm a copier/fax tech -not a stapler expert :)
SOURCE: t50 stapler gun it worked for about 15
The spring in the magazine is not stiff enough to feed the staples as fast as the spring pushes the driver forward. This is a design flaw and the ONLY thing that has worked for me so far is to put 1 & 1/3 sticks of staples into the gun. This puts more pressure on the spring in the magazine and forces the column to feed faster. It's only good for about 10 - 15 shots, but it's better than nothing. I am currently seeking a more rigid spring that will fit around the rod to fix this problem. Will post as soon as I have a more permanent solution.
