-10-

6.

 

Secure the quick release latch. 

7.

  Inspect the staple stick. If it is bent 

or damaged, throw it away and insert 
a new stick that only contains clean, 
undamaged staples. DO NOT use dirty 
or damaged staples! 

8.

  Slide the magazine forward until the 

catch lever engages.

Replacing Pistons/

O-Rings

Under heavy use, a piston or piston shaft 
may wear out. Replacement is quick and 
easy. Contact your authorized Shop Fox 
dealer to obtain the Piston Repair Kit 
(part number X1778002).

To replace a piston, do these steps:

1.

  DISCONNECT STAPLER FROM THE AIR 

SUPPLY!

2.

  Remove all staples from the 

magazine cartridge, and clean the 
exterior of the stapler. 

3.

  Remove the four cap screws on the 

back of the stapler, near the exhaust 
port.

Always  disconnect  stapler  from 
air  whenever  servicing!  During 
maintenance,  a  stapler  connected 
to air may fire accidentally, causing 
serious personal injury!

4.

  Remove the cap.

5.

  The  top  of  the  piston  should  now  be 

visible  inside  the  cylinder,  which  is 
housed in the head of the stapler.

6.

  Open the nose cover as if to clear a 

jammed staple.

7.

  Watch the discharge area and push 

the top of the piston with your 
finger. You will see the piston shaft 
slide down the discharge area. 

8.

  Taking care not to scratch or dent the 

stapler parts, use a wooden dowel 
or similarly shaped tool to push the 
piston shaft back inside the stapler 
until you can grip the piston head and 
remove it from the cylinder. Clean 
and inspect the parts for cracks, 
wear, or burrs.

9.

  Place a new O-ring on the new piston 

and apply a thin film of the stapler 
lubricating oil on the O-ring.

10.

 Insert the new piston in the cylinder. 

Make sure that the grooves on the 
piston shaft line up with those on the 
guide at the bottom of the cylinder.  
The new piston should easily slide 
into the cylinder. 

DO NOT force the 

piston into the cylinder!

 If the piston 

is not easily inserted, double-check 
the alignment of the piston shaft with 
the grooves on the guide.

11.

 After the piston is inserted correctly, 

close the magazine. Replace the rear 
cap assembly and tighten the four 
cap screws.

12.

 For more assistance, or to install a 

complete O-ring set, refer to the 
appropriate breakdown diagram in 
the back of this manual for O-ring 
locations.
