Trigger is blocked for glue escaping toward the rear.| Glue stick diameter too small.

Glue stick’s melting temperature is too low.

| Use recommended glue sticks.
Glue does not flow evenly.| Glue stick’s melting temperature is too low. Glue is not heated long enough.

Trigger is not pressed uniformly.

| Wait for heating.

Allow the glue gun time to heat up.

Press trigger slowly and uniformly.
