Extension Cords

Only round jacketed extension cords should be used and we
recommend that they be listed by Underwriters' Laboratories (U.L.).
An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American
Wire Gauge) for safety, and to prevent loss of performance. The
smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the
cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. When
using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, be
sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire
size.
To determine the minimum size required, refer to the chart below:
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires,
damaged insulation and defective fittings. Make any needed repairs
or replace the cord if necessary. Black & Decker has extension cords
available that are U.L. listed.

through back of gun. (For best results,
use 4" or longer sticks).
Squeeze trigger to set adhesive stick
firmly in chamber.
Set glue gun into cradle as shown in
figure 1.
Note: The channel around the bottom
of the base serves as a cord wrap for
the cord. If needed, fully unwrap cord.
Plug cord into a 120 Volt AC outlet and
wait for "Ready for Use Indicator" to
turn from GRAY to RED. See figure 2.
WARNING: If gun is seated in
cradle it will turn "ON" as soon as
the cord is plugged in.
Apply glue by squeezing trigger. The
further the trigger is pulled, the more
glue will flow out of nozzle. When gun
stops feeding glue, release trigger and
squeeze again for additional flow.
When glue stick is depressed to the
level of the inlet tube lip, insert another
stick.
When glue gun cord is removed from
the cradle, it will begin to cool off. When
the ready for use indicator changes to
gray, or when the glue is no longer
flowing easily, replace the gun in the
cradle.
For heavier duty use the glue gun can
be used as a plugged in unit away
from it's base.
To use as a plugged in unit:
1.) Make sure unit is cool.
2.) Unwind cord from cord wrap.
3.) Push down on the two tabs in front
of the receptacle as shown in figure 3.
Rotate the receptacle toward the
