The DVD was just product advertizing, and the printed materials were a parts list. Found the Floor Stapler worked fine, once I figured out how to assemble it, load staples - simple tasks once you do them, but the tool came with zero information.
They worked great with the stapler and held the boards to the wall quite well. I used this with a Porta-nailer 461 to lay several hundred square feet of engineered wood floors.
I'm using these with my Porta-Nailer 461 stapler and they work very well.
It didn't take more than a couple of minutes to get the head to fit, but if I hadn't had the right tools or wasn't willing to do the work then the standard head would have been useless on our stapler (I doubt it's this way on all of them). I tried using my finish nailer first and while I was able to get the air pressure set right in short order, I had to spend a fair amount of time making certain I was lined up for each nail and still had a moderate percentage of nails that went in too far out on the tongue or in to where they left marks on the finished wood. I have several other projects that I can see using this staple gun for and the standard head is what made the purchase well worth the money for me.I would have given the Porta-Nailer five stars if it wasn't for the standard head. I have had no issues with jams, missed shots, or any other problems with the gun.
I recently bought the Porta-Nailer 461 to install some Shaw engineered Walnut in our living and dining areas. This is the only issue I've had with the stapler and overall I'm extremely pleased with this purchase. I had to take a grinder to the standard head to remove some material so that it would latch down. I'm currently over half way done with the project, but wanted to review the gun.
It does exactly what it's supposed to.I especially like the fact that the kit comes with a standard head as well as the flooring head. It has made my flooring job go much faster and easier than I would have imagined. I have yet to have any issues at all with operation of this staple gun.The floor attachment makes it very, very easy to get the staples exactly where they need to be. With the Porta-Nailer I've been able to just set the air pressure once and then start firing away with the staples properly aligned every shot.
