low feed rate. You can change the preselected
value during operation.
The amount of material squeezed out also de-
pends on the size of the dispensing nozzle open-
ing.
Switching On and Off
To switch on the caulking gun, push the
lock (14) down. Then press the on/off
switch (13).
To switch off the caulking gun, release the on/
off switch (13). The rack (7) moves immediately
into the park position, in order to prevent further
squeezing of the material.
If the on/off switch (13) is pressed again within
approximately 10 s of switching off, the rack (7)
moves to the last working position at maximum
speed. If this position is achieved, the feed is ad-
apted again to the adjusted feed rate.
To lock the on/off switch (13) against uninten-
tional switching on, push the lock (14) up.
Temperature-dependent Overload Protection
If the permissible temperature is exceeded, the
caulking gun switches off. Let the caulking gun
cool down and then switch the caulking gun
back on.
Working Advice
English
Comply with the manufacturer's instruc-
u
tions regarding the material to be applied.
Certain materials can only be used within a
certain temperature range or can only be ap-
plied to specific surfaces.
Open and use the cartridges and sachets
u
(foil bags) in accordance with the manufac-
turer's specifications.
Only trim the nozzle if the material is se-
u
curely within the barrel for sachets (foil
bags)/cartridges.
The bracket for the shoulder strap does not
u
act as fall protection. Use the bracket (9) for
the shoulder strap only to attach a shoulder
strap.
Adjust the feed rate to ensure a smooth and con-
sistent application of material in one application.
Ensure that the surface onto which the material
is to be applied is clean, dry and free from
grease.

Maintenance and After-Sales Service
Please note that power tools must only be re-
paired, serviced and tested by qualified electri-
cians. Improper repairs can pose considerable
English
hazards to the user.
When working metals in extreme conditions,
conductive dust can settle in the interior of the
power tool. Regularly blow out the interior of the
power tool through the ventilation openings
with dry and oil-free compressed air.
Processing gypsum-containing materials can
create dust. This can settle in the interior of the
power tool and on switching elements, and may
harden due to the humidity. This may impair the
switching mechanism. Regularly blow out the in-
terior of the power tool through the ventilation
openings and the switching elements with dry
and oil-free compressed air.
Products that have come into contact with as-
bestos must not be brought for repair. Dispose of
products contaminated with asbestos according
to the regulations for disposing of waste contain-
ing asbestos that apply in the country of use.
