USING THE GLUE GUN
Before starting work, ensure all parts to be glued are clean and free from oil
and grease etc. Test that parts fit together before applying glue. The glue gun
is suitable for gluing wood, plastic, textiles, cardboard, tiles & ceramics etc.
The glue can also be used as a paste for filling holes or sealing of joints.
1. Lightly sand any smooth, glossy surfaces before gluing.
2. Stand the glue gun in a safe position before plugging in.
3. Plug the glue gun into a suitable
power socket, and allow to heat
up, before attempting to use,
approx 5-10 mins.
• When plugged in, the gun will
be ON and the LED on the front
of the gun will illuminate.
.
4. Insert a glue stick into the rear of
the glue gun as shown. Push the
glue stick in as far as possible and
gently operate the trigger several
times until resistance is felt. DO
NOT apply excessive force.
5. When ready to start gluing items
together, position the nozzle on
one of the parts and gently
squeeze the trigger. Glue will start
to run from the nozzle.
• Apply the glue to one part to be glued only and apply the glue as
quickly as possible.
6. When glue is applied, press both work pieces firmly together making sure
they are correctly aligned andclamp as necessary for about 5 minutes and
leave to set.
WARNING: TAKE CARE THAT WHEN THE GLUE GUN IS IN OPERATION THE
CASING IMMEDIATELY AROUND THE HEATING TUBE AND ELEMENT
ASSEMBLY BECOMES HOT (APPROX 70
