Changing Nozzles

The Model H8175 glue gun comes with three noz- zles for different gluing applications and output amounts. The all metal nozzle is for heavy duty and high output applications. The long tip of the silicon nozzle is ideal for bonding items with mini- mal accessibility. The silicon coating reduces the risk of accidental burns. After extensive use, the nozzle may begin to drip excessively or produce an intermittent flow. Nozzles should be changed regularly to ensure an even flow and reduce the risk of a possible fire hazard.

To change the glue gun nozzle:

1.Heat the gun for approximately 1 minute to soften the glue.

2.Put on a pair of gloves, and use a wrench to remove the nozzle.

3.Flush the remaining glue through the gun to clean the chamber.

Note: Never pull the glue stick out through the back of the gun or it may damage the feed mechanism.

4.Thread the new nozzle onto the gun until snug–do not overtighten.

Fluid Output Adjustment

The amount of glue being used can be preset by using the fluid control knob, as shown in Figure 6. Lock the adjustment by screwing the adjust nut towards the back of the fluid control knob until it is flush with the gun body.
