The problem is wear on the sides of the driver blade. With the constant up/down movement of the driver against either side of the nose plate, it eventually narrows enough to allow part of the fine wire 71 series staple to find it's way between the driver blade and the inside wall of the nose plate. A new driver blade cures this completely. Rainco tackers have become a bit rare but the good news is, they're actually manufactured by Fasco and the Fasco driver fits into the Rainco piston by the removal of a single pin to allow the old blade out, replace with the new Fasco blade, re-insert the pin into the piston, then re-assemble the gun and you're away.

Bostitch hardwood gun plunger stuck

90% of the time this is caused by a staple or nail jammed in the nose.
Remove the 4 allen bolts (#55) holding the base on then the 2 through the nose (#42) to remove the magazine assembly - if there is no jam visible it could be a staple inside the piston bumper (#62) or a broken driver blade (#21) https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjAq7eHtbbeAhUBJt8KHRM4B14QjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ereplacementparts.com%2Fbostitch-miiifs-nailer-parts-c-29443_29458_29676.html&psig=AOvVaw0uj2-j0kNQNSY0h0bJRE_6&ust=1541272343720952

My gun will not shoot staples

The most common cause of the gun not firing is loading it with the wrong staples. Look at the packaging for the staples and see if it lists the gun. Staples are NOT universal and are make for specific staple guns.

It "sounds like" it is jammed. You may have to pull out the staple with needle nosed pliers. e`1

Staples are stuck inside the stapler and will not come out

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!

How to repair jammed arrow electo matic staple gun

You'll have to disassemble it. There is probably a staple lodged in the "hammer" mechanism on the business end of the stapler.

Often, these staple are very difficult to remove -- a very small flat-tip screwdriver and needle-nose pliers usually work best.

After you get all the jammed staples out, lubricate all moving parts with something akin to 3-IN-1 machine oil. This should prevent future jams.

FixYa RainCo R1b 7C -16

Hello; If the gun is AIR operated, adjust the AIR presure DOWN on the regulator on the air compressor tank? If it is electric operated! there should be a depth DIAL (say 1-8, 1 being the least depth and 8 being the most; depending on the hardnest of the item being stapled) trial & error to be tried on a scrap piece first......! hope this helps, John.

I have a staple stuck in my Arrow model #ETN-50 staple gun. How do I get it out? There is not enough staple exposed to pull it out and I don't see any way to take the nose apart. Thanks.

Unplug it. If you can see the driver jammed against the staple, take a screwdriver end and try to push the driver back in and the staple should be released. If you can't get the driver to go in and release the staple, you'll have to disassemble it to clear the jam, If you need help with that, see the instructions for the current model here, page three, diagram 3, cleaning the magazine.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.

How to remove jammed staples in staple gun?

Take out the small bolt that is secured with a nut at the back of the gun (at the end where you feed the staples) -- then drop the inset. Now you have access to the jammed area. Clear out jammed staples and put the stapler back together. Easiest way is to hold the nut and turn the bolt from the other side.
