Safety Rules for Charging
a. This manual contains instructions for power adapter model 510. Do not
substitute any other power adapter.
b. Before using power adapter, read all instructions and cautionary markings
on (1) power adapter, and (2) product using battery.
c. Charge only Dremel HSGP-01. Other types of cordless tools may burst causing
personal injury and damage.
d. Charge tool in temperatures above +41 degrees F (5 degrees C) and below
+104 degrees F (40 degrees C). Store tool in locations where temperatures will
not exceed 113 degrees F (45 degrees C).
This is important to prevent serious damage to the battery cells.
e. Do not recharge tool in damp or wet environment. Do not expose power
adapter to rain or snow. Water entering power adapter may result in electric
shock or fire.
f. Battery leakage may occur under extreme usage or temperature conditions.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. The battery liquid is caustic and could
cause chemical burns to tissues. If liquid comes in contact with skin, wash
quickly with soap and water. If the liquid contacts your eyes, flush them with
water for a minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical attention.
g. Keep power adapter and glue pen away from flammable material when
recharging the glue pen. Carpeting and other heat insulating surfaces block
proper air circulation, which may cause overheating of the power adapter and
tool. If smoke or melting of the power adapter or tool is observed, unplug the
power adapter immediately and do not use the tool or power adapter. Contact
customer service immediately.
h. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over,
or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. Damaged plug and cord may result

Operating Instructions
Preparing for gluing
The bonding locations must be clean, dry and free from grease.
The materials to be glued together and the work surface must not be easily
ignited or flammable.
Test whether heat-sensitive materials are suitable beforehand on a sample
workpiece.
The ambient temperature and the workpieces to be glued must not be colder than
41 °F (+5 °C) and not warmer than 122° F (+50 °C).
Materials that cool the adhesive down quickly should be warmed first with a
hot air gun.
Switching On and Off
-
Turn the glue pen on by pressing and holding the On/Off button 4 until the LED indicator 5 lights up green (Fig. 2).
The LED indicator will flash while the tool is warming up. When it is continuously lit up green, the glue pen is ready to use. If the LED indicator flashes red, battery capacity is lower than 30% and should be charged.
-
To switch off the glue pen, press the On/Off button until the indicator turns off.
Place the glue pen down in a safe place after use and let it cool down completely before packing it away. The hot nozzle can cause damage.
The nozzle and glue will still be hot until the glue pen cools. Glue may leak from the nozzle.
Note: The glue pen will switch itself off automatically after ten minutes of inactivity to save energy.
When switching on again, check the LED indicator: If it briefly lights up red, the battery needs to be charged.
Gluing
-
Insert the glue stick 8 in the gluestick opening 6. Approximately 5”(12.5cm) in the length of the glue stick will insert into the opening to engage the feeder. Hold the tool with the tip pointing down (Fig. 2). This will help the feed er grab the glue stick, especially with glue sticks shorter than 5”.
-
After the glue pen heats up, apply moderate pressure to the feed trigger3 (Fig. 3). Applying too much pressure to the feed trigger may result in unwanted or unexpected material flow.
-
If the glue stick does not initially advance, apply slight pressure to the back of the glue stick to help eng age the feeder. Do not stick any other objects besides glue sticks into the glue stick opening.
-
Th e glue pen may have glue from a previous glue stick in the feeder.
After heating, press the feed trigger to help push out any unwanted glue.
Inserting a new glue stick will help push out the previous glue from the glue pen. -
Apply the adhesive to a single side.
-
Press the materials you wish to glue together against each other for around 10 to 30 seconds immediately after applying the adhesive. It is still possible to correct the bonding location at this point.
The bond is stable after approx. two minutes of cooling time.
Maintenance
WARNING
To avoid accidents, always disconnect the tool and/or power adapter from the
power supply before cleaning.
Service
warning
