Installing Sausage Type Pack
Always check sausage packs for punctures
or damage to the pack before installing. Do
not use a damaged or frozen pack.
1. Lock trigger or remove battery pack.
2. Press in and hold rod release trigger.
3. Grasp plunger rod handle and pull plunger
rod back to allow sausage pack to fi t inside
barrel tube.
4. Insert pack into barrel tube.
5. Cut off end of sausage pack.
NOTE: Before using a partially fi lled pack,
remove any hardened material.
6. Insert nozzle supplied with the sausage
pack into the nozzle cap (coarse thread).
Thread nozzle cap onto the front of barrel
tube (Fig. 5).
7. Cut nozzle at an angle and size per manu-
facturer's recommendation to suit the job.
A smaller nozzle diameter requires more
force to push the caulk and reduces bat-
tery life.
8. Press in and hold rod release trigger.
9. Push plunger rod handle forward until
plunger is against sausage pack.
10. Release rod release trigger.

OPERATION
WARNING
When tool is not in
use, lock trigger to prevent the tool from
being accidentally turned on.
Starting and Stopping and Controlling
Speed
1. Pull trigger to dispense material.
2. Increase or decrease pressure on the
trigger to dispense the material. Adjust the
speed dial to select the maximum speed
for proper bead width and material feed
rate. On the speed dial, "1" is the slowest
speed and "6" is the fastest speed. The
trigger pressure, selected speed, material
type, temperature and nozzle diameter will
all affect the fl ow rate. When using a tube
or pack with a smaller nozzle diameter
use a slower speed or the material may
be forced around the rear tube seat.
3. Release trigger to stop dispensing material.
NOTE: The plunger will stop automatically
when it has reached the end of the tube.
Locking the Trigger (Fig. 6)
Always lock trigger or remove battery pack
before changing accessories or performing
maintenance. Lock trigger when the tool is
not in use and when storing the tool.

Locked
Unlocked
1. To lock the trigger, push trigger lock in
the direction shown. The trigger will not
work when the trigger lock in the locked
position.
2. To unlock the trigger, push the trigger lock
in the direction shown.
Adjusting Plunger Rod
1.
To manually adjust plunger rod, press in
and hold rod release trigger.
2.
Grasp plunger rod handle and either
push or pull rod in or out.
3.
Release rod release trigger.
NOTE: Keep plunger rod clean of material.
Retracting a plunger that is covered with
material may damage the internal parts of
the tool.
Electronic Overload Protection
The gun is protected by an electronic over-
load protection feature. If too much pressure
is exerted on the tube, the motor will auto-
matically reverse for one second, and then
shut down. This helps to prevent damage to
the tool and the caulk tube or pack.
If the motor shuts off, make sure that:
• Nozzle tip is cut
• Inner seal in the caulk tube is broken
• Hardened material is removed from the
nozzle
• Caulk tube is not damaged or frozen
• Plunger rod is free of caulk/adhesive materi-
als
Release trigger to allow the electronics to
reset. If the motor continues to shut off, try
another tube of material or take the tool to a
MILWAUKEE Service Center.
Auto-Reverse Mechanism
The auto-reverse feature reverses the plung-
er when the trigger is pressed for more than 1
second and then released. This helps to stop
excess material from continuing to fl ow.
Pulsing the trigger will deactivate the auto-
reverse mechanism and allow for continued
pressure on the tube. This helps maintain a
slower material feed rate.
Auto-Shut Off
When a caulk tube is empty, the auto-shut off
feature will turn the motor off. Pull the plunger
back and replace the tube.
Caution: Unexplained tool shut-off or auto-
reverse may be due to caulk or adhesive
material on the plunger rod. Plunger rod must
remain clean and free of all caulk and adhe-
sive material. If material does get on plunger
rod mechanism, remove the plunger rod and
clean the material off of the rod and tool with
a brush and solvent according to the caulk or
adhesive material's manufacturer.
