Frequently Asked Questions - BCG180 MAKITA
Which battery should I use with the Makita BCG180?
The Makita BCG180 works with Makita LXT 18 V batteries (models BL1815, BL1820, BL1830, etc.). Only use compatible batteries recommended by Makita.
What type of glue sticks should I use?
Use standard glue sticks with a diameter of 11 mm. Length may vary, but prefer sticks designed for high-temperature glue guns (around 160 °C).
How to clean the glue gun nozzle?
Disconnect the battery and let it cool down. Remove dried glue residue with pliers or a cloth. For deep cleaning, use a nozzle cleaner or gently heat the nozzle with a hairdryer.
What is the heating time of the glue gun?
The heating time is approximately 4 minutes to reach the optimal operating temperature (160 °C). An LED indicator may light up when ready.
Can the glue gun be used continuously?
Yes, but it is recommended to take short breaks of a few minutes after prolonged use to avoid overheating. The battery may also need replacement if it runs out.
What to do if the glue does not flow?
Check that the battery is charged and the gun is hot. If glue doesn't come out, the nozzle may be clogged: clean or replace it. Also make sure the glue stick is properly inserted.
Does the glue gun have an anti-drip function?
Yes, the Makita BCG180 is equipped with an anti-drip function that prevents glue from dripping when the trigger is released, reducing mess on the work surface.
How to change the glue gun nozzle?
Let the gun cool down completely. Unscrew the nozzle using pliers or a wrench (if supplied). Screw on the new nozzle tightening moderately. Do not force.
Can I use the glue gun with an extension cord?
No, because the gun is cordless and runs on battery. There is no power socket. Only use Makita LXT batteries.
Where to find spare parts for the BCG180?
Spare parts (nozzle, stand, etc.) are available from authorized Makita dealers or online. Use the model number BCG180 to identify compatible parts.
