ASSEMBLY
WARNING!
Always lock trigger or remove
battery pack before changing or
removing accessories. Only use
accessories specifically recom-
mended for this tool. Others may
be hazardous.
Preparing the caulk or adhesive tube
1. Cut the nozzle of the tube at an angle
and size (typically about 3/8") to suit
the job. A smaller nozzle diameter re-
quires more force to push the caulk
and faster battery consumption.
2. Break the inner seal of the tube with a
piece of wire or a long nail.
If the inner seal is not broken, the caulk
material may be forced out the rear
end of the tube and damage the caulk
gun.
Before using a partially filled tube, remove
any hardened material with piece of wire
or a long nail.
Installing the tube of caulk or adhesive
WARNING!
Keep hands out of the plunger area
of the caulk gun. Fingers can be
pinched between the tube holder
and the plunger.
1. Pull tube cover open.
2. Push the tube of caulk into the front of
the tube holder.
The plunger will retract as the tube is
pushed in.
3. Push the tube cover up and into place.
OPERATION
To reduce the risk of injury, wear
safety goggles or glasses with
side shields.
Starting and Stopping
1. Start with the speed control dial set at
the "Low" position. When the material
begins to come out of the tube, adjust
the speed control for the proper bead
width and material feed rate. Material
type, temperature and nozzle diameter
will all affect flow rate.
NOTE: To adjust the speed, turn the
dial on the back of the caulk gun. When
using a tube with a small cut diameter,
do not use in highest speed setting, or
the material may be forced around the
rear tube seal.
2. Pull trigger to dispense caulk.
3. Release trigger to stop dispensing
caulk.
4. Push trigger lock up to prevent opera-
tion. Push trigger lock down to enable
trigger.
Clutch
The motor is protected by a clutch. During
normal use the clutch should not ratchet. If
the clutch ratchets for more than a few
seconds, check to ensure that:
1. Nozzle tip is cut.
2. Inner seal in the caulk tube is
broken.
3. Hardened material is removed from the
nozzle.
If clutch continues to ratchet:
1. Turn the speed control dial to a lower
setting.
2. Cut nozzle again so that the hole is
bigger.
3. Take caulk gun to a MILWAUKEE
Service Center.
Anti-drip mechanism
This caulk gun has an anti-drip mechanism
that releases the plunger when the trigger
is released.
