Abstract
A safety device for a pneumatic stapler includes a safety member rotatably mounted to a barrel of the stapler by a torsion spring located between the safety member and the barrel. The safety member has a first protrusion and a second protrusion. The first protrusion is pushed by a magazine connected to the barrel and the second protrusion is located at a higher position to allow a safety plate to be moved between the two protrusions. When the magazine is removed and the second protrusion is rotated to a lower position, the safety plate is stopped by the second protrusion.
