Application:
1. Clip metal stand on the glue gun. Always use the stand. Never lie gun down on the side when in use or whilst cooling down this will cause gun failure.
2. Insert Bostik HG3 glue stick gently through the tunnel at the back of the gun. Never use excessive force as the glue stick will clog the channel.
3. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet and wait 5 minutes to heat up the glue. Ensure glue is hot or glue will not extrude through the gun.
4. Apply adhesive by gentle continuous pressure and to the more difficult surface to bond (usually smooth surfaces are more difficult to adhere than rough, porous surfaces).
5. Release trigger to stop the flow of glue.
6. Glue does not need to be spread. Do not touch
7. Molten adhesive, as temperatures around 200°C will cause serious burns.
8. Join surfaces as quickly as possible for optimum bond strength.
9. To bond foam products (polystyrene foam etc) to another surface, apply adhesive in an “S” pattern to the surface to which the foam will be bonded, rather than directly to the foam.
10. To bond fabrics, use a smaller “S” pattern for additional strength.
11. Small drops of glue can be easily removed when cold.
12. Residual glue can be remelted and removed from most bonded surfaces with a warm knife.
13. When you have finished using the gun, switch off and unplug it.
14. Allow the glue stick to remain in the gun – do not remove the stick from the rear of the gun at any time
