This page is OUTDATED and may no longer be accurate in important aspects!

Please head over to the new page "Heat Introduction" that will from now on serve as a replacement. If the old page was an introduction page, it is vital that you read the new one before using the described machine(s) again!

This is the content required for an introduction to our hot glue guns - reading this does NOT replace the mandatory session with a tutor! It will make it even quicker though ;-)

Let's begin! First off, make sure you have read the tool's manual.

Safety

Dangers

burns from hot glue stuck to a hand
  • the nozzle gets very hot (approx. 200 °C)
  • the glue stays hot for a while
  • burns are made more serious by the fact that the glue sticks to skin and can't be shaken off


Precautions

  • don't touch the nozzle area if there is any chance it could still be hot
  • don't touch freshly deposited glue to see if it's hard yet...
  • quickly apply slightly warm water if hot glue is stuck to your skin (cold water is okay for small burns, but could cause shock)
