Gluing applications
Before gluing
• The surfaces to be glued must be clean, dry and free of grease. Clean the gluing surfaces
before applying the glue if necessary.
• Polished or shiny surfaces should be roughened before gluing.
• Insert a glue stick into the glue port as described above.
• Press the trigger (7) to move the glue stick into the heating chamber.
• Allow the heating chamber and the glue stick to heat up for 2 - 3 minutes until the glue
melts.
• Press the trigger to apply glue to the gluing surface.
After gluing
• After applying glue, bring the workpieces together and press them firmly.
• Use a clamp or similar fixture if required.
• The clamping fixture can be removed after about 5 minutes.
• Allow any surplus glue to cool down completely and subsequently remove it with a knife.
Gluing
Note!
Practice before you start working with the glue gun. Carry out trials
on waste material. The correct amount of glue and the feed rate for each
application depend on the size and properties of the materials you wish to
glue and can only be determined by carrying out trials.

After finishing work
Note! Risk of damage!
• After completing the work, switch off the hot glue gun and press the
trigger repeatedly to completely use up any residue of the glue stick that
may be present, thus emptying the heating chamber.
• Place the hot glue gun on the integrated stand and allow it to cool
completely.
