Abstract

Dispensing of attachment members, each formed by a filament with a head at one end and a cross bar at the other end, using an ejector with forward and return strokes. Each attachment member is dispensed during the forward stroke of the ejector and an antijam mechanism is operated for assuring completion of the return stroke of the ejector and prevention of premature operation.
