# Accessories for tacking paper and for tacking at equal distances

With a specific accessory, the power tool can be used for tacking paper and for tacking at equal distances from the material edge. The accessory is only suitable for the UniversalTacker 18V-14.

- With the paper tacker (13), you can tack together up to 80 sheets.
- With the spacer (13), you can set an equal distance of 1 cm to 11 cm between the fastener and the material edge using six settings.

Note: To load the magazine (9), you have to remove the paper tacker/spacer (13) from the power tool.

##

Note: Tacker staples are stronger than standard staples and are therefore more difficult to remove from the paper.

Recommended staple length | Number of sheets (80 g/m2 paper)
--- | ---
6 mm | 2–20
8 mm | 10–40
10 mm | 20–60
12 mm | 30–80

- Set the impact force to the highest level.
- Insert a suitable staple strip (14).
