Handling and operation

In this chapter you will receive important information for the handling and operation of the appliance.

Switching the appliance on/off

To switch the appliance on, place the On/ Off switch at the position "ON".
Press and hold the activation button to heat up the wax melter tip 2.
To switch the appliance off, place the On/ Off switch at the position "OFF".

Application example

Preparation (Fig. A)

Clean the damaged area with the spatula and remove all loose parts. Press the edges of the damaged area round.

Colour selection (Fig. B)

Select the matching colour tone. Ensure that several colour tones, from light to dark, are always used. With real wood, it is recommended to additionally work with transparent (K), so as to achieve a sense of depth.

GB

Melting and flling (Figs. C + D)

Place the On/Off switch at the position "ON" to switch the appliance on.
Press and hold the activation button to heat up the wax melter tip 2.
Now melt small portions of the hard wax and place them into the damaged area, until it is slightly overfilled. Start with the light colour tones and progress step by step to the dark colour tones.

GB

NOTICE

At pressure points it is often suffcient if you use only the transparent hard wax (K).

Filling (Fig. E)

For vertical surfaces it is recommended to mix the colour tone beforehand, collect it on the spatula and then fill the damaged area. When working on curved areas the scraper with curvature should be used to fill hard wax into the damaged area.

Smoothing (Fig. F)

Allow the hard wax to cool for a few seconds (about 10 seconds).
After cooling, smooth any protrusion with the planing grooves of the scraper. Use only light pressure to smooth the protrusion.

Fine matching (Fig. G)

For fine matching, now imitate the grain structure with a darker colour tone.
Subsequently, again smooth any protrusion with the planing grooves of the scraper 7.

Degreasing (Fig. H)

To finish, remove the last hard wax residues with the sanding sponge. Thereby the gloss level of the surface will also be simultaneously matched. Job done!

Cleaning the planer grooves (Fig. 1)

Place the cleaning scrape on the cooled wax melter tip 2 and scrape the wax residues from the plane grooves.
