How to Load & Troubleshoot Dewalt 5 in 1 Staple Gun

[@aungmyatkyaw831]

Thank you. This evening, I was so troubled by staples loading. It took so much time, and I thought it was broken. I did a Google search and found your video. Thank you again.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Im glad you got it figured out :)

THANK YOU Emily! I was loading them through the BACK! 🤣 I felt pretty stupid. The rest of your video was very helpful. If you see red in the staple preview on the side, you’re either out of staples or doing it wrong (like I was)

[@YouCanDIYHome]

I'm glad you got it figured out! Happy stapling :)

[@georgegeranios2918]

Parker and I seemed to have been on the same wrong page. I too was trying to load from the back! (had not used it in awhile). Thank you for the additional info on the settings.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Woohoo! Glad you got it going!

Thank you Emily. I bought the carbon fiber composite stapler for obviously the lighter weight on hands. it is light weight, but lacks all these adjustments. no safety lock either. I am returning it and getting the one you demonstrated. no instructions for that either. I am not going to lie. you are beautiful :)

I was loading mine wrong….😂😂😂😂 thanks for the video. 🤜🤛

Ive gotten hung up on it when I don’t use it for a while!

[@firemyst9064]

Awesome, thank you, quick and to the point. My issue was i had the top set for heavy staples but did not push the bottom to +. Just installing insulation on 2x4 and 3 out of 5 staples jam. After pushing up bottom setting not a single jam. Erroneously i didnt read the instructions, i figured its a low tech tool and that there wouldnt be any settings to adjust.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Glad you got it sorted!!!

Thanks for posting. I started using mine a week ago. I find when it gets to the last 5-10 staples it jams nearly every time - like maybe it needs more spring tension. I didn't ever even see the +/- adjustment - so thanks. I'll check that to see if it makes a difference. Thanks again for posting.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Hope it helps!

[@NelloCambelli]

Excellent presentation.

Driver won't back up far enough to advance to the next stample

[@joshuarose3587]

Hahahah I kept putting the staples on top of the loaded when I took it out . Ugh

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Did you get it working now?

[@alexanderalvarez8305]

[@Azarie03]

Thanks

Never face anything that shoots a staple or nail at your body whether it's loaded or not. If you're going to adjust the front adjustment, place the gun flat on a surface and push the gun down with one hand and adjust up with the other. You literally had it pinned to your chest. Teach yourself better habits.

[@ThaUnit]

Also, you clearly never read the instructions hence your jamming issues. I've had a year and it hasn't jammed once.

[@wendyw253]

plus She thinks this is how to load a brad... ZERO help there.👎
