• Final bonding strength is reached after a very short time
(approx. 2 minutes). Spot gluing is recommended on
long items with large surfaces.
• At the 130 °C temperature setting and using "low melt"
glue sticks, you can also glue rigid foam (e.g. polysty-
rene). It is important to remember to apply the hot-melt
adhesive on the base surface and not, for example, on
the polystyrene.
• When gluing textiles or similar materials, it is recom-
mended to apply the hot-melt adhesive in "wavy" lines.
• Let the tool cool down after use.
• If necessary, use weatherproof and moisture-resistant
PUR glue sticks on the 130 °C temperature setting.
Note:
When changing from a glue stick applied at 130 °C to one
applied at 200 °C, the glue may initially be much more fluid
as it leaves nozzle.
