„ Know your glue gun. Read operator's manual care-
fully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as
the specific potential hazards related to this product.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.
„ Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to

ating the product, or performing maintenance. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
„ Do not lay a hot glue gun on its side.

perature glue gun while it is in use.
„ Keep flammable materials away from this high tem-
perature glue gun while it is cooling (after use).

falling or being knocked over. Always keep flammable
materials away from this high temperature glue gun.
„ Do not leave this glue gun unattended while it is hot.
„ Place a piece of paper or cardboard underneath the
product to catch hot glue drips and prevent damage
to the underlying surface.
„ Do not touch the heated nozzle of the glue gun.
„ Use the glue gun in a well-ventilated area to avoid
breathing hot glue vapors.
„ Do not point the nozzle of the glue gun at another
person.
„ Do not tilt the glue gun nozzle upwards or use the
product to glue overhead items.
„ Always allow hot glue to cool and dry completely
before handling the item to which it is applied.
„ Do not insert anything except glue sticks into this
product, and insert only from the back of the glue gun.
„ Do not place your hands or fingers near the nozzle of
the glue gun when inserting a new glue stick.
„ Never leave the glue gun unattended while it is in the
on position.
„ Do not apply more hot glue than is needed for your
application.
„ Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
„ Do not operate battery products in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Battery products create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
„ Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a glue gun. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
„ Do not allow children to use the glue gun. It is not a toy.
„ Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
„ Do not expose battery products to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a battery product will increase the
risk of electric shock.
„ Use battery only with charger listed. For use with 18V
lithium-ion battery packs, see tool/appliance/battery
pack/charger correlation supplement 988000-302.
„ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a battery product. Do
not use the product while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating battery products may result
in serious personal injury.
„ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the prod-
uct. Carrying battery products with your finger on the
switch or energizing battery products that have the switch
on invites accidents.
„ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Do not use on a ladder or unstable sup-
port. This enables better control of the battery product
in unexpected situations.
„ Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can contact a
heated nozzle.
„ Do not use the battery product if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any battery product that cannot be con-
trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
„ Remove the battery pack from the product before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the product. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
„ Store idle products out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the product or these
instructions to operate the product. Battery products
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
„ Maintain battery products. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the product's oper-
ation. If damaged, have the product repaired before
