Operation
2. Preparation
Always clean the plastic part surface being repaired of any grease,
dirt, film or other contaminates before beginning.
3. Making Repairs
Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. Place the desired staple
configuration into one of three hole locations in the contact prongs,
choosing the hole location that provides the best access to the
damage. Do not press the trigger switch. The staple will achieve full
heat after pressing the trigger switch.
Set the Temperature to suit the material being repaired.
Step “1” for thinner and softer plastics.
Step “2” and “3” for thicker and semi-rigid plastics.
Step '4” for thick and hard plastics.
Usually setting the temperature to the step “2” or “3” is recommended.
CAUTION: On thinner and softer materials, it is very easy to burn
through to the outer surface, do not use excessive force.
Application
Press and hold the trigger switch on the Staple Gun for 10 seconds
allowing the staple to achieve full heat. Carefully press the heated
staple gently into the plastic keeping the staple parallel and square to
the surface while continuing to hold the trigger switch.
When the staple is satisfactorily burrowed into the material, release
the trigger switch, wait several seconds to allow the molten plastic to
firm up then withdraw the staple gun from the staple.
When done, the staple legs can be cut off with side cutters then
ground down to the repaired surface area.
