Staple Gun & Compressor

[regalman190]

How about the maestri electric guns sold on this site? Anyone tried one?

How do you operate two tools requiring different pressures from the same compressor?  My machine requires higher pressure to fire the solenoid and work the automatic presser foot lift.  Staplers operate best at lower pressures than that.  Can you suggest something?

You can use a small regulator for the lower pressure tools. Some guys will build it right into the line that stays with the tool. A short rubber hose and regulator attached. So you plug into say a 100 psi line and the tool will run at 40 if thats what you set the in line regulator to. They are fairly cheap.

Thanks Paul.  I wasn't sure if you could place the regulator further down the line or not.  When I used the stapler I wasn't using the machine at all and so I simply adjusted the regulator on the compressor  to accommodate the stapler.  It makes sense now that I think about it.
