8.Allow the applicator to thoroughly warm up for 10 minutes. Do not attempt to operate the applicator until this time has elapsed.
5.Operation
Normal use:
•Fit the stand and place the applicator in an upright position on a flat surface.
•Plug the applicator into the power supply socket, and switch on the power. Wait 10 minutes for the applicator to reach its normal operating temperature.
•Squeeze the trigger to advance the piston and extrude molten adhesive through the nozzle.
•To stop extruding adhesive simply release the trigger.
During use, the piston will advance into the barrel as the trigger is pulled. A point will be reached where the piston no longer advances, and the sound of air escaping can be heard - this indicates that the applicator needs reloading.
•Release the trigger.
•Pull the piston back.
•Insert a new adhesive cartridge.
•Operate the tool normally.
5.1.Applying Adhesive - Spray Adjustment
Turn the spray air adjustment control completely clockwise. Holding the applicator facing away from you, squeezing the trigger will extrude a bead of adhesive from the nozzle. While continuing to squeeze the trigger, rotate the spray air adjustment control slowly
5.2.Adhesive Flow Rate Adjustment
The flow rate of adhesive is dependent on the air pressure to the piston, and this is adjusted by varying the setting of the pressure regulator on the air supply to the applicator.
The air pressure operating range for the applicator is:
Minimum | 45 p.s.i. (3 bar) |
Maximum | 100 p.s.i. (7 bar) |
. | USERS AIR SUPPLY |
