Duotac-automatic
With the Duotac-automatic function, two sta-
ples are shot at the same time. Shooting two
staples at the same time prevents tearing out,
e.g., of thin fabrics or foils. The Duatac-function
is not possible when working with nails.
To shoot two staples at the same time, push the
selector switch for Duatac-automatic 8 upward.
To shoot one stapel or one nail, push the selec-
tor switch for Duatac-automatic 8 downward.

Working Advice

This machine is not suitable for working
with 19 mm staples. Therefore, do not use
the machine to fasten ceiling panelling with
profiled wood or grooves.
4
Avoid blank shots in order to reduce the wear of
4
the impact striker.
5
The machine is designed only for intermittent
5
operation and will warm up with continuous
5–6
use. The tacking force is reduced as a result of
–
heating up. Therefore, allow the machine to cool
off after 15 minutes (maximum) of continuous
2
operation.

With the stapler plate 13, materials with a thick-
4
ness of up to 8 mm, such as notepads, seminary
–
paperwork, thin-walled pressboard or fabrics,
can be stapled.
Depending on the click-on position of the sta-
4
pler plate 13, the stapler tips are bent toward
4
the inside or outside.

The data in the following table are recommend-
5–6
ed values. Determine the settings for double-
–
staple application (Duotac) through practical
testing. The staples used must be 3–4 mm long-
4
er than the thickness of the material.

Support Foot (see figure B)
The support foot 12 enables exact vertical
placement of the machine.

The spacer clamp 14 enables tacking of sta-
ples/nails with consistent clearance to the
workpiece edges. The variable possibilities for
clicking on allows for many clearance levels.
