Clearing a jammed cable stapler
I've got a 4 conductor cable stapler that uses curved top staples (CT-10)
that's jammed. I can't load new staples (the spring slide won't go in far enough to lock) and the ones apparently jammed in there won't fire. I don't see an easy way to clear the staple channel, either. Anyone got any tips for how to clear a jammed strip of staples? -- Bobby G. |

Failing that, call the customer service number (Google it) and ask for their manual and/or talk to an expert for help. Good luck. Joe |

Finally found the Arrow website (www.arrowfastener.com) and they had a diagram of exactly what screw to pull to open the staple channel. Good work, Joe! Thanks. -- Bobby G. |
