Safety
Operation
Approved eye protection must be worn by the operator and others within the work area. (Approved safety glasses are included.)
Note: Never pull the material backwards through the FasTagger. When you come to the end of a roll of tags, the last two feet of tags should be pulled out of the unit as the FasTagger will not dispense the last few tags. If, these are not removed, they will cause the unit to jam when a new roll is loaded. Always disconnect the air supply before making adjustments, servicing the tool, loading tags or staples, clearing jams, and when the tool is not in use.
Never place a hand or any other body part in front of the staple discharge area while the air supply is connected.

C. Remove the remaining material by pulling it out of the unit from the staple discharge area. (There is an antibackup device which prevents material removal from the tag guide inlet.)
3. Changing Feed Lengths from 2-3/4" to 1-3/8" A. Disconnect air hose and remove staples. B. Reconnect air hose. C. Fully squeeze trigger and hold to keep unit energized. Do not point the unit at yourself or anyone else.
D. Using screwdriver (supplied), push index stop pin in fully, and rotate it 90° counterclockwise. E. Release trigger and FasTagger is ready for 1-3/8" long tags.

F. Connect the air hose to the gun. (Safety glasses should be worn at this time.) Cycle the unit several times until the tag stock has self-fed and is properly indexed in front of the staple discharge area. Note:
If the material does not start to self-feed, push the tag stock 1/2" further into the tag guide and cycle the unit again.
Safety
Do not use oxygen or combustible gases as a power source for this tool.
G. Disconnect air hose and load staples per Bostitch instructions.
H. Reconnect the air hose. The FasTagger is now ready for use. Place the nose of the unit lightly up against the material to be tagged and fully squeeze the trigger. Upon releasing the trigger, remove the FasTagger from contact with the material to allow the indexing of the next tag.
Never point the unit at another person while the air supply is connected.
2. Unloading Tag Stock A. Disconnect air hose and remove staples. B. Cleanly sever tag material in between twist roller and tag guide.

FasTagger® Operational Requirements
Compressed air- 3.5 SCFM at 80 PSI minimum; 60-100 PSI operational range (do not exceed 100 PSI).
Operation
Air dryer recommended for optimum tool life. Air filter - 40 micron minimum. Lubrication A. Manual – 2 drops in connector every 8 hours. B. Automatic – 1 drop/minute at 10 SCFM flow rate with lubricator located no farther than 50 feet away from the FasTagger.
D. Route tag stock over twist roller and in between standoff, then down towards the tag guide. Twist the tag stock (either direction) a quarter turn so the visible surface is properly oriented to the board after stapling.
Maximum 50 feet of 1/4" I.D. air hose. Safety glasses with side shields (to meet ANSI Z 87.1).
E. Insert the end of the tag material (the end must be cleanly cut or it will jam in the unit) into the tag guide. Feed the tag stock approximately 1/2" past the first click. Note: Tag material must be completely free of any tape used for securing the loose end of the tag material as there is only minimal clearance in the tag guide. If tape does cause the tag to jam, removal of the tag guide is required to clear.

3. Pressurize the FLR/air hose assembly and adjust the regulator to 60 PSI (this is the minimum pressure required to operate the FasTagger). The pressure adjustment has a direct effect on how deep the staples are driven. The more pressure (up to 100 PSI maximum), the deeper the staples are driven into the base material. The adjustment should be set to drive a staple through the tag and into the base material without the crown of the staple cutting through the tag. Note: To reduce operator fatigue, a hanging ring is provided and may be installed on the front nose block for use with an overhead tool balancer. Remove the left mounting screw and replace with hanging ring.
