OPERATION
• Do not pull adhesive sticks from rear of glue
gun while in operation. Removing adhesive
from the rear may cause molten adhesive
flow out of the rear of the glue gun which
may cause burns and damage to the glue
gun.
• Use only 3M™ adhesive sticks. Other
adhesives may cause back melt and
possible injury. Use of other adhesives may
damage the glue gun or result in hazardous
conditions.
• Do not use low-temperature adhesives with
high-temperature glue guns.
• Reduce risks associated with hazardous work
positions to avoid minor or moderate injuries.
• Avoid raising the elbow, bending the wrist,
reaching and bending over when using this
device.
• Gently squeeze the trigger to push the
adhesive stick into the heat block. The
adhesive is melted by the heat block
and pushed out through the tip. A fixed
thermostat on the heat block maintains heat
block temperature.
NOTE: To avoid charring or plugging of the tip,
extrude at least one adhesive stick every three
hours that the glue gun is turned on.
• Do not overtighten. This could damage
threads.
WARNING! Tip and valve are hot. Keep tip
pointed away from body parts.
NOTE: To avoid charring or plugging of the tip,
extrude at least one adhesive stick every three
hours that the glue gun is turned on.
