Sandy, I place my staples on the side. Well. I place the first 3 on the back, then stand my frame up and use the leverage of the pliers against the back edge and staple the alternating rotation as described on the sides including the side I started on. Then I remove the starter staples after my corners are done and trim off excess. I don't know if it's the right way, but it's what works for this lefty when trying to apply the leverage needed to get a tight fit with the pliers.
