Reset tool by removing and reinserting
battery pack or cycling trigger lock-off.
If error code persist, take tool to an
authorised

servicecenter.
Stall Release (Fig. K)
If the stapler is used in harder material where all available
energy in the motor is used to drive a fastener, the tool may
stall. The driver will not complete the drive cycle and the jam/
stall indicator will flash. Rotate the tool free stall release lever
8
on the tool and the mechanism willrelease.
NOTE: The tool will disable itself and not reset until the battery
pack has been removed and reinserted. If the driver does not
automatically return to the home position, proceed to Clearing
a Jammed Staple. If the unit continues to stall please review
the material and fastener length to be sure that it is not too
rigorous an application. The stapler could also be overheated
and needs time to cool before furtheruse.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, disconnect battery pack from tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories,
servicing, or moving the tool. Such preventative safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the toolaccidentally.

CAUTION: When removing a jammed staple, DO
NOT orient the stapler with the nose up or with the
battery foot up. Positioning the stapler this way makes
the jammed staple or pieces of the staple more likely to
be ingested into the stapler. If any portion of a staple is
ingested into the tool, the staple should be retrieved by
removing the topcap.
If a staple becomes jammed in the nosepiece, keep the tool
pointed away from you and follow these instructions toclear:
1. Remove battery pack from tool and engage trigger lock-off.
2. After laying the tool on its side, slide the spring-loaded
pusher
12
to the base of the magazine to lock it into place
and unload staplestrip.
3. Rotate the magazine release
11
and rotate the
magazine
10
forward.
4. Remove jammed/bent staple, using pliers ifnecessary.

CAUTION: If any portion of a staple is ingested into
the tool, the staple should be retrieved by removing the
topcap.
5. If the driver is in the down position, rotate the stall release
lever on the top of thestapler.
NOTE: If the driver will not reset after rotating the stall
release lever, manually resetting the blade with a long screw
driver may benecessary.
6. Rotate the magazine back into position under the nose of
the tool and close the magazine releaselever.
7. Reinsert batterypack.
NOTE: The tool will disable itself and not reset until the
battery pack has been removed andreinserted.
8. Reinsert staples into magazine (refer to Loading theTool).
9. Release the pusherlatch.
10. Disengage the trigger lock-off when ready to
continuestapling.
NOTE: Should staples jam frequently or the driver continually
fail to reset, have tool serviced by an authorised
DeWALT
servicecentre.
