Before first use
Preparing the glue site:
■
Do not use inflammable solvents to clean the
glue site.
■
The ambient temperature and temperature of
the materials to be glued must be not less than
+ 5° C and not warmer than + 50° C.
■
The glue sites must be clean, dry and free of
grease.
♦
Smooth surfaces should be roughened before
gluing.
♦
Warm any materials that are prone to cool
down quickly (e.g. steel) to improve the bond
with the glue.
♦
Screw on the appropriate nozzle .
