Preparations for Gluing
The surfaces to be glued must be clean, dry and free of grease.
The materials to be glued as well as the surface on which you are
working may not be easily ignitable or inflammable.
Check the suitability of heat-sensitive materials first on a test
workpiece.
The ambient temperature and the workpieces to be glued may not
be colder than +5 °C and warmer than +50 °C.
Materials, such as metal, which cool off the glue quickly, should
be preheated with a hot air gun.
Gluing
– Insert the appropriate glue stick 5 for the material being glued
via the opening at the rear of the glue gun.
– Switch the glue gun on and allow it to heat up (see "Switching
On", page 18).
The glue gun is ready for operation after approx. 15 seconds.
– Press the feed trigger 3 applying moderate pressure.
– Apply the glue only on one side (also see "Practical Advice",
page 19).
– After applying the glue, immediately press the surfaces to be
glued together. Correcting the gluing location is still possible
at this point.
The glued spot can be subjected to full load after a cool-down
period of approx. 2 minutes.
Practical Advice
Material/Workpiece
Large-surfaces, long work-
pieces
Rigid foam (e.g. styrofoam
or polystyrene)
Flexible materials
(e.g. textiles)
Remove glue residue after cooling with a sharp object. If required,
glued spots can be separated again by applying heat.
Do not use inflammable solvents for cleaning the surfaces to
be glued. Solvent remainders can ignite from the hot glue, or
hazardous vapours can develop.
Glue remainders on clothing cannot be removed.
Glued spots can be painted.
Glue-stick Storage Compartment (see figure B)
The bottom side of the charger 2 comprises a storage compart-
ment 11, in which up to four glue sticks 5 can be stored.
Bosch Power Tools
Recommendation
Apply the glue in the form of points
Apply glue to base material and not
to the styrofoam or polystyrene
Apply the glue in lines
