German term or phrase: Schussvorgang
These are instructions for operating a staple machine.

Man schiebt die Tackereinheit von der Grundstellung wieder erst in die Mittelstellung, schiebt die Nahtschablone vorne und schiebt dann die Tackereinheit in die Arbeitsstellung.

Erst dann wird der Arbeitsdruck aufgebaut, um den Schussvorgang durchführen zu können.

Explanation:
Hi Jonathan! This seems to be a pneumatic tool, if I judged the picture correctly. This means the tacks or whatever is 'shot' into the material. Used one a hundred years ago when I worked at a door-making shop.

  -> Hi Wendy. Yes, it is a stapler. I got lost in my past experience with a pneumatic stapler, which is a takcer in U.S. English. I hope you're doing well!

agree  Johannes Gleim: A tacker in US and Germany.
