Attention! We would like to highlight the importance of the correct choice of glue.
The product selected must be of the highest quality and designed for the automatic glueing of edges.
Use suitable glues with a viscosity between 70,000 mPa.s and 110,000 mPa.s and with a feed rate of
between 7 and 12 m/min.
These values are of particular importance in ensuring that the machine operates correctly and that the edges
are well glued.
• We recommend not to fill the glue pot right up to the
top; keep the level of glue constant and replenish in
small quantities.
• The level of glue is indicated by the two fins in the
pot; they should only be slightly covered in glue.
The quantity of glue to be spread can be adjusted.
When edging, check the level of glue in the pot and if
necessary, fill up to 1 cm below the edge of the pot.

Note:
The glue pot heating system switches itself on once the machine is connected to a power supply, the main
switch is on I/ON and the selector switch is on ON. The workpiece chain feeding system powers the glue
application roller. The roller only starts rotating once the temperature of the glue pot has exceeded the
stand-by temperature and the button to start up the chain feeder has been pushed down.
