If it's a swing line why doesn't it swing? Meaning you can't unlatch it to do 180 degree stapling.

Interesting question, Michelle. Actually, it will open to approximately 100 to allow some "wall" stapling, but not the true 180 open face stapling. As to why it doesn't, I, as a tester I don't have the answer, I only test it and note this. I wasn't part of the design team. That said, though, from the way it was designed to have sort of a fulcrum in the top part of the stapler to make stapling papers easier, it appears this addition of the fulcrum took away the ability of the stapler to open "fully flat." Given that this stapler operates so effortlessly, I feel , personally, it was a fair trade-off in functions, especially if someone who has arthritis needs to have a reduced effort stapler. I've noticed several products I've reviewed have been commented on by the manufacturer. Maybe, your question will be seen and answered by someone at Swingline.

The top pulley is fixed. It will not swivel. Not sure what the last guy was smoking when he answered that it could swivel. perhaps he didn't understand what you mean.

I hung my swing on a tree branch. You have to buy additional chain and hardware to hang it but if done properly, it works just fine. I tried using part of a rubber hose to protect the tree but this prevented the swing from swinging more freely. I had to remove the hose for it to swing properly.

If they are loaded upside down and it still doesn't close, remove some staples from the strip. A full strip is too long for it to close.

It twists to extend and lock into place. I see no reason why you should not be able to untwist it and remove it. It has small spikes on the end feet, but they shouldn't hook into the wood.

There are loops at the top of the ropes. I hung the platform from a branch some distance above the ground so I added more high tensile strength rope and strong clips, both with a rating above the 250 lbs. of the platform. Additional rope knots came from websites about 'hanging a tree swing'. They were a bit challenging but have held for more than a year so far despite heavy use.

Swings and stays open, BUT DOES NOT LAY FLAT! MORE THAN 90 DEGREES! BUT LESS THAN 180 DEGREES. Sorry

Don't worry about the swing . Worry about the pine tree. You may need longer chains. Pine trees are brittle,tend to snap.

You can't adjust the angle, without compromising the stability or strength, if that makes sense

The swing attaches by a sort of "s" shape hookI know that we couldn't use swings we already have too, they were not compatible.

It does swing both ways. There is no way to hold it open at the 90 deg mark. But it doesn't try and swing shut either. It's stays put for the most part.

The height can be locked. The angle cannot be locked, unfortunately. It does roll to an angle either way.

It has two metal S hooks so you just have to buy some chain to throw over a tree branch. We also used 2 metal rings to make secure the ends of the two chains over the branch so they couldn't slide off. It works fine and is very secure, but since the branch slants up a bit, the swing swings at. A bit of an angle. Not a safety problem, but sort of annoying. Don't think the baby cares at all.

It does not have that capability. It is flexible, and just stays in the shape you positioned it.

I have to tie the end of the cord around the handles of my yard power tools so with all the twisting the cord does kink near the female receiptacle end. Also, never use your cocked elbow as a form to wrap the cord when winding it up to stow. Cords have memories and will maintain these bends. These contribute to kinking. Despite not using this winding method, I notice that unless I entend the cord out. it still has a tendency to twist a bit if not kink

I grab both ends and twist in opposite directions. That way when it folds together it doesn't unfold or bulk up because it is fighting against its self try to rotate in opposite directions. Either way grabbing and twisting the wire in the middle should work for you.

There is a loop attached to the frame with a big bolt on top. The swing attaches with a hook that is tied to the nylon ropes of the swing. It does not swivel; the two metal pieces(the loop and hook) slid on each other. It takes awhile to get the height that you want for the swing, and you have to be careful that you gradually sit on it to tighten the knots in the nylon rope.
