Some staples are not going all the way into the wood. I press the gun against the wood and fire and the staple is not all the way in.

Use shorter staples or hammer to finish the staples.

SOURCE: reloading ace 22084 staple gun

Hello there:
when you purchase staples for this particular gun even though you might get a staple that is says it fits this gun you need to look at the type of staple if you get the one that says heavy duty it will not work it took me 2 times to find out the right ones for this gun it comes in a green box and says standard duty on it not heavy duty this is where most people make their mistake. ok?
best regards michael

No matter how i hold the staple gun the staples won't go into wood. when they do the staples aren't flat they bend in the middle.this gun has never worked correctly.could i be using it incorrectly?

possibly that you are not using the correct staples
staples for wood have a chisel shape at the points and depending on the wood hardness will be shorter that normal

The staples won't go fully into the Wood

My T50 would fire ONE 1/4" staple correctly and then jam, eating 3 or 4 and after digging those out do it all again. This was one staple eating machine!!.. I disassembled the thing, making some mechanical adjustments which allow only enough room for smooth feeding of ONE staple at a time and now it NEVER misfires or jams. These adjustments will take careful thought and filing of the end of the staple tray nearest the firing pin, along with slight bending of the firing pin to lay flat again the outside head cover. I also filed the outside "tips" of the firing pin to be absolutely flat where it contacts the staple. DO NOT shorten the firing pin if possible. Now I can get even 9/16" staples to go all the way in. :)

How do you load nails?

The staples are NOT loaded on top of the pull out shaft; they are inserted directly into the slot that opens when you pull the shaft out. If the nose of the tool is not placed firmly against a surface, it will not fire.

CLICK HERE
and click the PDF icon on the right of the model # to start the download.

Here is a step by step:
Unplug the tool.
Squeeze the end of the shaft at the rear bottom of the tool and pull out the shaft.
Flip the tool over on it’s back.
Insert the staples, (points up) and then slide the shaft back in.
Plug it in, press the on button (under the the power cord in the back). Press the nose squarely against the material and press the trigger

How do you adjust the staple size to load 1/2" or 1/4" staples?

Staple guns can use a variety of staples; the width of the staple is fixed, the lengths vary from 1/4" up (usually in 1/8" increments). You don't need to adjust the staple gun for the different lengths, just be sure the width fits your gun since some manufacturers have used brand-specific staples.

There are also a variety of staple types; there are staples for ceiling tile, electric wire, window screening, etc. My favorite staples for wood have the tips cut on a sharp angle, they penetrate wood well. Some staple types require a particular gun, I have a gun that shoots only round-top staples for small cables like phone & thermostat wire.

The staples do not enter the wood completly

often when squeezing the tool the front gets lifted and the staple does not set fully. try making sure the front is tipped down fully and in contact wood when it fires. if that doesnt work the push rod is not working properly and is easier to replace than try to fix

Staple Gun Troubleshooting

Most of the staple gun models lack an "anvil" — the metal plate with curved slots that office staplers use to bend the legs of the staple inwards and flattens them against the paper. Staples set with a staple gun retain their straight legs, and are held in place only by static friction of the legs against the compressed surrounding material, much like common nails. Indeed, some staple gun models can handle brads and nails as well as staples. Some staple guns also use divergent point staples where the legs twist as the staple drives into the surface providing superior holding power.
