Operation
The glue gun shall only be used/applied according to its intended use. Please see Section “General Safety
Instructions“.
Improper use of the gun may cause personal injury or material damage.
Non-observance of the safety instructions when working with the gun may lead to serious burns and/or product
damage.
Please refer to the following checklist before you switch on the glue gun:
Check List
- Is the glue gun connected to a 230/120 volt outlet?
- Is the nozzle clean and free of any foreign matter?
- Is solvent-free hot melt in the gun?
- Has the heat-up time of approx. 10 minutes (depending on the glue type) been observed?
While you are working...
...the glue gun must always be deposited on the wire strap.
Never lay gun on its side!
- Open gun only if required; cover can only be opened while gun is warm.
- Keep hot melt free of dirt and humidity.
General Hints
- Do not start glueing before glue is fluid.
- Glues that have not molten completely will not reach the glueing temperature required.
- Not having the required glueing temperature, glues cannot produce optimum glueing results.
- Due to the high viscosity of partly molten glues a lot of manual energy will be needed to dispense them.
- This will cause some essential parts of the gun to wear very fast .
Cleaning and Maintenance
Only fill clean and solvent-free glue into the gun. Contaminated glue, nails, clamps, sand, etc. cause malfunctions.
The use of solvents, petrol, benzole, toluol, acetone, terpentine, etc. will lead to an explosion. Never use these
materials!
If you observe the operating instructions, the gun does normally not need major cleaning.
If the gun is used frequently, to ensure peak performance and durability, it is important that it be maintained and
serviced regularly. To set a date, please call our service department. 1-888-202-2468
