Typically you do not open these up.
Makes it difficult to remove stuck or wrong staples.
I have had good luck removing the staple ram rod and rapping firmly on the **** of the stapler against a wooden table. The idea is jolting the stuck staples into reverse out the way they went in. Tedious process but usually works. Removing the jammed staples in the nose at the striker plate requires using needle nose pliers and a sharp awl or small screw driver used on very small screws.
My T50 Arrow stapler is over 20 years old.
Still works great. Sometimes I slide in the wrong size staples by mistake. The process above usually works.
Good luck!

That same gun did the same thing - I just took it back.

They sell for less then $25 on Amazon, consider buying a new one and keep the old for parts.

Just buy a new one, they are less then $15.00 or search for the manual.

Hi, Dayne here
Well, it might sound too easy, but did you check for jambed staples. I also lightly oil all mine. Sometimes the actual plunger that drives the staple will break internally.
Thanks

Buu a different brand or model this one is junk and should be taken off the shelf

I just bought a T50 elite, and it will NOT staple too. Simple 3/8" staples loaded and nothing comes out.

Use a knife or small screwdriver to remove the little lock rings on one side of the stapler. DO NOT lose them With the lock rings removed, push the pins toward the other side of the stapler and remove them. Now the internal mechanism can be removed through the bottom of the stapler after you remove the staple "pusher" from the rear. That's about as far as you can take that stapler apart.

You likely have i staple jamed in it see if you can get something that fits into the end where the staples come out and pull the bent staples out this is common even on bigger models

I was having the problems everyone listed... with the staples loading & firing... I guess the instructions are lousy .. should be ON THE PACKAGE to make it clear.. but.. on the stapler itself on the bottom.. it explains how to correctly load.. you don't put the staples on the piece that slides out.. you slide it out, load the staples in the open tunnel ..then slide the piece back.. that piece is the spring loader... since i finally figured it out ( by coincidence that I turned it over & noticed some faint words printed) - it works PERFECT every time! great little stapler... please fix your directions... seems to be a common misunderstanding!!!

tools are so inexpensive its typically a throw away harbor frieght or orchard supply or any other noteworthy hardware store should have a staple gun available for a decent price

Go to any Home Hardware with the pin from your stapler and an associate can match up the c clip that you require. They have a great selection . Good luck .

is there a problem with it? here is a manual that has pictures. If you have a jam or something, repost what the problem is.

remove the staples and check inside for a jammed one up there. squirt some oil in there. load it again and try. please follow the instructions to a tee. having the wrong staples or what ever can damage the unit, if it isn't already. good luck

you have a staple stuck inside. Use a non folding dull knife(butter knife) and needle nose plyers to remove it.

BAD spring it where you load the staple in the back..

If the staple breaks loose in the strip the stapler will jamb up on you. It can happen on the very first try infact. Using the instruction sheet provided it will describe how go remove misaligned staples

Its not your husbands fault Truthfuly the gun is a peice of junk it was never made to last they start to rust on the inside and that bindes it all up you have broken springs honestly throw it in the trash and get a new one but spray WD 40 in it this will make it last longer

1. • 1 Push in the push rod plate on the back of the Arrow T50P and press down to unclip the push rod from the gun. Pull the push rod out of the staple channel and away from the staple gun.
     
   • 2 Insert a strip of staples into the channel with the tips of the staples pointing toward the bottom of the staple gun.
     
   • 3 Place the end of the push rod into the staple channel of the gun. The end of the push rod has a small, solid piece of metal that fits into the staple channel.
     
   • 4 Press the rod all the way into the staple gun until the rod plate engages in the notch at the rear of the gun.
