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!!!
SOURCE: How do I load staples
At the end of the stapler opposite where the staplers are driven out is a release.
Push it in and turn it and it should come out with a long spring
Load your staples, put the spring back and lock it.
SOURCE: Hi can't seem to reload stapler
All you do is open the end peice and slide the staples in on the two rails, point down. You should be able to see in the end to make sure nothing is blocking the rail with a flashlight. You probably have the wrong size staples. You can only use # 214, 215, 276.

remove the spring loaded magazine from bottom rear of unit by pushing down on piece about two inches below curve section of rear end of handle push down gently and pull to rear staples go in front ofin same slot from which this magazine is removed load normally two clips if your dead empty when you return the spring follower back into place it follows the staples if if doesnt go all the way in you probably have to many remove some good luckd
SOURCE: Staple Gun Troubleshooting
Most of the staple gun models lack an "anvil" — the metal plate with curved slots that office staplers use to bend the legs of the staple inwards and flattens them against the paper. Staples set with a staple gun retain their straight legs, and are held in place only by static friction of the legs against the compressed surrounding material, much like common nails. Indeed, some staple gun models can handle brads and nails as well as staples. Some staple guns also use divergent point staples where the legs twist as the staple drives into the surface providing superior holding power.

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
