Handling
Before use:
Working conditions
When using this hot melt glue gun, always follow basic safety precautions. This will reduce the possibility of accidental injury due to burs or electrical shock.
Personal safety
Contact with nozzle or molten glue can cause burns. Always keep device out of reach of children. Never try to speed up cooling process by holding gun under the tap. Always allow to cool naturally. Check cord regularly for damages or ruptures. For safety reasons, do not use glue gun if damaged.
Surface requirements
The areas to be glued must be dry and free of any dust or grease.
During use:
Directions for use
Put gun in clamp and plug in the outlet. Insert oval glue stick into glue gun and allow to warm up for 3 - 5 minutes. Immediatly press the workpieces 15 - 20 seconds together, applying some force, and correct of necessary. The connection is solid and can be loaded within 2 minute (depending on thickness of glue layer). The final bond strenght is reached after 2 hours. Important: Timely insert a new glue stick behind the old one in order to avoid overheating. Avoid contact with nozzle. When gun is not in use for 30 minutes or longer, unplug cord from the outlet. Apply the glue in beads on flexible materials and in beads or dots on hard materials. Larger surfaces are difficult to bond because glue may solidify before applied to entire surface. Bonding strenght is the best when the parts are joined as soon as the glue is applied. After loading a new cartridge, instead allow the gun to heat up again.
Points of attention
This tool must be placed on its stand when not in use. It is for indoor use only. Never leave the glue gun unattended if it is still hot or connected to supply mains. Never remove glue sticks from glue gun, this could damage the mechanism. Never insert other objects into the glue gun than the recommended glue sticks. Be careful when using the glue gun near to combustible materials. Do not use the glue gun in explosive environments.
After use:
Stains/residue
Cured adhesive residue can only be removed mechanically.
Storage conditions
After use, allow glue gun to cool completely prior to storage. When not in use, the glue gun should be stored in dry and secure location out of the reach of children.
