Operation
Tips and notes on handling the glue gun
General information:
• Degrease metallic surfaces before gluing. Processing
machines often leave oil residues.
• The glue cannot be completely removed from textiles. Due
to its high melting point, even hot washing does not
remove the glue.
• Moisture can make the glue joint come undone.
• If required, use special glue sticks for different types of
material.
• If your skin comes into contact with hot glue, immediately
hold the affected area under a jet of cold water for several
minutes.
• The materials to be bonded and the surface on which you
are working must neither be highly flammable nor
combustible.
• When working with heat-sensitive materials, use a sample
to test whether the material is suited for hot gluing.
Gluing:
• Apply the glue in zigzag lines when working with flexible
materials such as textiles.
• Heat up quickly cooling materials such as steel e.g. using a
heat gun to improve the adhesive bonding.
• Briefly press the workpieces together by hand after gluing.
A clamping device is not required.
• You can use the device for point gluing or seam gluing.
• Glue joints can be dissolved again by heating.
• Glue residues can easily be removed from the nozzle after
the tool has cooled down.
• After cooling, remove the glue residues ideally with a sharp
knife.
• The glue joints can be painted.
• Roughen smooth surfaces before gluing.
