PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
•
Do not use excessive force on the trigger. Ensure that the tool has fully warmed up before use.
•
Keep the nozzle clean to prevent adhesive build-up. This is easily done by wiping the nozzle with
clean paper or cloth while the nozzle is still warm.
•
Should “glue backup” or “meltback” accidentally occur (when molten adhesive becomes visible at
the point where the glue stick enters the heater tube), switch off the tool and allow the adhesive to
cool. Gently pull away this excess adhesive, reconnect the power, and allow the tool to warm up
again. Now squeeze the trigger two or three times to advance the glue stick, and then use the tool
as normal.
