evenly. When adjusting you have to keep in mind the paste roll needs ca. 2-3 seconds to transport the
glue up from the glue container. Do not set the adjusting screw after the machine has cooled down.
With a filled glue reservoir the amount of glue can be used to cover around 22 m of edges that have a
height of 23 mm or around 8 m of edges that have a height of 45 mm.
ADJUSTING THE EDGE THICKNESS
You do not need to make adjustments.
EDGES & SETTING
The edges must be around 2-3 mm thicker than the work piece to process.
CUTTING TO LENGTH OF THE EDGES
Cut edges to the length of the work piece + ca. 6 cm.
TAKE CARE WHEN PUTTING GLUE ONTO THE EDGES:
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT ENOUGH CONTACT PRESSURE AGAINST THE WORK PIECE IS
USED WHEN EDGES ARE GLUED. OTHERWISE THIS COULD CAUSE ERRORS DURING ADHE-
SION.
METHOD OF OPERATION
Switch the machine on with the mains switch (H). When the temperature of the glue has reached 150°C
the control lamp (I) at the feed switch lights up. Depending on the granular material the machine has to
warm up for 10 to 15 minutes to get from 0° to 150°. Take care that there are no objects in the machine.
When the green control lamp at the hand grip lights up the feed can be switched on. This causes the
granulate to meld faster. Before every operating circle or gluing it is absolutely necessary to wait until the
granulate is liquid. (Open lid and check).
ADJUSTING THE AMOUNT OF GLUE
With the adjusting screw (G) you control what amount of glue is
applied onto the edge. Display from "0 – 2". As soon as the ma-
chine has heated up and the granulate has become liquid turn the
adjusting screw to position "0" (clockwise). Use a sample edge to
check the amount of glue (ca. 1 m). Switch on the feed. Lead the
edge through the parts (E) and (F) (without work piece) until the
transport roll carries the edge automatically.Now slowly open the
glue adjustment screw anticlockwise until the edge is coated
