Turn the main switch A on (Fig 16-1).
When the glue has reached a temperature of 150ºC (302ºF),
LED C will come on (Fig. 16-1). This heating stage can last from
5 to 8 minutes, depending on the condition and quantity of
granulate. After this initial period, you can only glue short pieces.
To glue larger pieces, or to glue a series of items, you must
wait about 20 minutes for all the granulate to melt. (Open the
cover B (Fig. 12) to check this).
Ensure that all the adjustments in points 8 and 9
below have been performed before continuing.
Next, place the guide plate A (Fig. 27) over the piece to be
edged B (Fig. 27) and move the pressure roller C (Fig. 27) close
to the piece but without touching it.
Hold the machine over the piece with your right hand and turn
on the advance switch D (Fig. 27), which is on the handle for
your left hand. Wait for 2 or 3 seconds and move the edge with
your left hand through the guides E (Fig. 27) to the advance
roller F (Fig. 27). The edge will be automatically fed through
to pressure roller C (Fig. 27).
When the edge appears between the panel and the pressure
roller C (Fig. 27) allow around 2 cm of edge to pass with res-
pect to the panel and press roller C against the edge and the
panel (Fig. 26); the edge will stick and the turning movement
of the pressure roller will move the machine forward (Fig. 26)
continuously and consistently, at a speed of between 3.6 and
4 metres/minute until the end of the edge.
Do not try to go faster, maintain steady pressure on the pressure
roller and let the machine move at its own pace.
