Getting started

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 hot 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 glue stick Ø 7 mm into glue gun and allow to warm up for 5 minutes. Squeeze trigger to apply glue on one of both materials. Press parts firmly within 15-20 seconds. The connection is solid within 1 minute. Important: timely insert a new glue stick behind the old one in order to avoid overheating. Avoid contact with hot nozzle. When gun is not in use for 30 minutes or longer, unplug cord from the outlet. Apply liquid glue in lines or dots on one of both surfaces to be bonded. Join parts within 15 to 20 seconds and press firmly. Bonding will occur within 1 minute (depending on thickness of glue layer). Larger surfaces are difficult to bond because glue may solidify before applied to entire surface.

Points of attention

Never remove glue sticks from glue gun, this could damage the mechanism.

After use:

Stains/residue
