First Aid Measures for Glue Sticks

Glue sticks are not intended for ingestion and should not come in contact with food, etc. If swallowed, seek medical attention. Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) available from 1-800-544-6986.

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.

Minimum Gage for Cord Sets Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet 120V 0-25 26-50 51-100 101-150 240V 0-50 51-100 101-200 201-300

Operation

NOTE: Protect what is under the workpiece with a heat resistant material to avoid heat damage to a table, etc. Insert stick of hot melt adhesive into inlet tube of melt chamber

m = 311 ;

through back of gun. (For best results, use 4^th 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

：

inside of the base and lift the receptacle and cord out of the holder. 4.) Rotate stand forward as shown in figure 4.

NOTE: Make sure unit is "OFF" and cool before adjusting kickstand. We recommend placing a piece of scrap material under nozzle to prevent damage to surface unit is resting on. 5.) Insert receptacle into the handle of the glue gun (cord facing back of unit). Plug cord into a 120 Volt AC outlet and wait for "Ready for Use Indicator" to turn from GRAY to RED or when glue

CAUTION: Feeding or pushing glue sticks with too much force into a heated gun may cause hot adhesive to be unexpectedly expelled from nozzle.

NOTE: Some materials can be damaged by the hot nozzle or even the hot glue. Where this is a concern, test a piece of scrap material or a portion of the object being repaired that will not be visible. When all gluing operations are completed, place the gun back in the cradle and unplug the cord to allow the gun to cool to room temperature. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PULL THE UNUSED STICK FROM GUN AFTER USE. Any unused adhesive can be reheated and used at a future date without any loss of bonding strength.

CAUTION: Do not confine the glue gun in an area where the heat cannot dissipate.

CAUTION: Make sure the gun is cooled down before putting in storage.

Changing Nozzles

There are three different nozzles:

Standard
·Wide
Extended Angle

CAUTION: Make sure the nozzle is cool and the gun is unplugged before changing nozzles.

To change a nozzle, a wrench is included and stores in the base. Note that a nozzle tip can be aligned independent of the nozzle base and then tightened with the wrench.

Tips On Using Your Cord Free Glue Gun

1. Choose the right glue stick for the right application. High or multi-temperature round glue sticks only.
2. Make sure the surfaces are clean and free from dirt or oily films. Clean surfaces always bond best so take time to prepare the surfaces prior to gluing.
3. There is no need to spread the hot glue. Just simply apply and position the surfaces together squeezing slightly to ensure even spreading.
4. It's always best to work in a room with an ambient temperature of 68 to 72 degrees F(20^ et 22^) . Extreme cold will quicken adhesive set-up time (the time it takes the adhesive to harden). Heat will extend it.
5. You can extend set-up time by slightly prewarming the surfaces to be glued with a hand held hair dryer. The heat will allow additional time to position difficult objects and also to ensure better bonding of more difficult substrates (surfaces to be bonded).
6. Glue drying time can also be controlled somewhat by the method of application. Large heavy pools of adhesive will take up to fifty percent longer to dry than normal size drops. Very thin beads will dry in as few as 10 seconds. Some experimentation with your glue gun on scrap material will help to determine the best method to use for your particular project.
7. Use hot melt glue to hold projects together while you install more permanent fasteners like nails, screws, bolts, etc. This makes the whole project stronger and eliminates the need for clamps.

8. Some paints and stains containing petroleum distillates can weaken the adhesive. Test before using. You may need to paint or stain before gluing.

9. Excess adhesive may be removed by scraping, peeling, or remelting with hot tip of gun. Adhesive may be removed from fabric by dry cleaning.

Cleaning

Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Many household cleaners contain chemicals which could seriously damage the plastic. Also, do not use gasoline, turpentine, lacquer or paint thinner, dry cleaning fluids or similar products. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

Important

To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustments should be performed by Black & Decker Service Centers or other qualified personnel. This tool contains no customer serviceable components.
