Safety instructions

Warnings!

  • Only use this device in a well-ventilated place and always wear suitable safety glasses!
  • Do not touch the molten adhesive or the nozzle (12). Both are very hot during and after use!
  • When the adhesive is heated, harmful vapours can be released. Molten adhesive can cause burns!

Important note: Oval glue sticks and cold glue sticks must not be used with this device. These glue sticks have a lower melting point (90–110 ℃), which means that the flow rate of the glue cannot be controlled sufficiently. The uncontrolled release of adhesive from the body of the unit is a safety hazard and will cause damage to internal components not covered by the warranty.

  • Only use glue sticks with a diameter of 11.2 mm for this hot glue gun.
  • Do not connect the hot-melt glue gun to the mains supply without a glue stick inserted.
  • Always disconnect the hot-melt glue gun from the power supply before leaving it unattended.
  • This device must not be operated by people (including children) with limited physical or mental abilities.
  • The hot metal nozzle of this hot glue gun must never come into direct contact with flammable objects such as paper, cardboard, plastic, wood, etc. – Fire hazard!

Operation

  1. Mount the support bracket (11) to the hot-melt glue gun using the mounting holes (2).
  2. Connect the mains cable (6) to the socket (5) on the charging station.
  3. Insert one of the glue sticks (13) into the glue stick holder (7). Push it forward until you feel a slight resistance.
  4. Place the hot-melt glue gun in the charging station (1), making sure that the socket (9) on the glue gun is firmly seated on the appliance plug (3) on the charging station.
  5. Make sure that the charging station with the device is always positioned on a stable, straight surface in the immediate vicinity of the workpiece.
  6. Connect the unit to the mains using the mains cable (6).
  7. Wait 3–5 min for the unit to reach its operating temperature.
  8. Remove the hot glue gun from the charging station and guide the nozzle (12) over the surface to be glued.
  9. Lightly actuate the transport lever (10) so that the glue stick is pushed forward and melted glue is dispensed.
  10. Release the transport lift to stop the adhesive flow.
  11. After the gluing process has been completed, place the device back in the charging station. Never place the device on its side while it is connected to the mains!
  12. Disconnect the hot glue gun from the power supply after finishing the work!

Notes:

  • As soon as the hot-melt glue gun is removed from the charging station in wireless operation, its energy supply is interrupted and the adhesive can only be applied for a short time.
  • The hot glue gun can also be used if the mains cable is plugged into the socket on the unit. The user is free to choose the most suitable operating mode for the task to be performed.
  • Never try to pull broken glue sticks out of the device. A broken glue stick can remain in the device.
  • Always practise applying the adhesive to residual material until you have gained confidence in using the hot-melt glue gun.
  • As with all adhesives, the adhesive performance depends on the weather conditions in the working area. As the respective application conditions are decisive, the information given here is for orientation only.
  • Make sure that the surfaces to be glued are dry and free of dust, grease and other pollutants.
  • Apply the adhesive to only one of the surfaces and then immediately join the two surfaces to-gether. Then press the parts together for 20–30 s.
  • When gluing different materials, apply the adhesive to the material with the lowest absorbency.
  • When cold materials are glued, a better gluing performance can be achieved if the surfaces are heated before the adhesive is applied.
  • When you glue textiles and similar materials, it is advised to apply the adhesive in wavy lines.
  • Excess adhesive can be removed with a sharp knife after it has cooled down.

Storage

  • Make sure that all parts of the unit have cooled down completely before storage. Never wrap the power cord around a device that has not cooled completely.
  • Store the device safely in a dry place out of the reach of children.
