Sometimes it is hard to get the "nose" of the stapler hard up against something solid so it will fire. Does this machine have a manual trigger?

Yes. You do not have to have the nose pressed against the surface to shoot a staple.

In mine, I can only load 10 staples at a time or the magazine won't close. Not designed very well if it can't take a whole strip of standard staples.

I experienced no problems with the gun firing multiple staples on my entire project. Worked like a champ for me. Good luck!

There is a black button on the top-back part of the stapler. Just push it and out pops the place that holds the staples (at the front of the stapler). After you have loaded more staples just push it closed. It is very easy!

No. The trigger is set up so that you have to keep your hand on the machine to push it, which keeps everything stable and safe. It's a good design because with the size of the machine you want one hand on it for stability anyway, and the other hand for sharpening.

Yes it does if what you mean is if you hold the trigger and every time you hit it to the surface it fires...I used this to install about 30 squares on my home last summer.it worked fine for me.

No, unfortunately it does not have a trigger on lock....It does have a lock to prevent accidental turn on of the spray....However, easily over came the fatigue situation....I took a piece of heavy duty velcro about three-quarters of an inch wide and wrapped it around the handle at the narrow point of the trigger and just pull the trigger and slide the velcro strip up into the wide portion and it holds it turned on....hence no tired fingers or hands. An easy fix and I am really quite pleased with the overall performance for my needs i.e. washing driveway, garage floor and patio....

No. The staples on this stapler are thicker and bigger than the regular ones.

No. It has a pull start. Fairly low tension but still requires some effort. It always started within two pulls for me.

No, the trigger is like a spray trigger you find on any other spray cleaner. It just controls the spray out from the bottom.

Yes, dont pull the trigger till your ready to staple. And if you do staple a finger it only really hurts for an hour or so...just keep working.Orvin strickler

Yes, the pole has a trigger you have to squeeze, but works great. Not an on/off switch, that would be too dangerous. This is a very good tool.

yes it does. squeese the trigger to ignite it and just above it push down on the button.

No, it does not. It seems to apply more torque as you let it hammer longer. If I feather the trigger I can tighten things without making them too tight.

Sorry to say that I had the same trouble with mine. I ran the pressure up to 110 and it started to drive the nails. Just to add I thought this gun would shoot staples but only pin nails. Wish I had better news for you.

Yes it does. You simply pull the trigger handle and it releases the legs. When the legs touch the ground simply release the trigger and it's locked in.

As far as I know, the Arrow T-50 stapler doesn't lock. My guess is that there's a staple jammed up inside the mechanism where the staples normally shoot out. If you're lucky a pair of needlenose pliers can reach it and pull it out. Otherwise you'll need a pair of lockring pliers to disassemble the front half of the stapler. The Arrow T-50 is famous for this kind of problem and they're miserable to solve. I eventually threw my T-50 stapler away. Sorry - wish I had better news.
