| Staples bend/break |
Tool moving during staple insertion |
Hold firm & steady against tread surface |
| Not holding bench splice |
Staples pulling out/breaking around tight radius. |
Splice on tire or use additional staples on bench splice. Assist feeding bench splice through rollers by hand. Use longer, heavier gauge Black Magic® staples. |
| Not fully melted |
Lower temperature cycle. |
Will not cause problems. Partially melted staple not stiff enough to damage tire. |
