The Energy Indicator will show charging status. A full charge provides up to 100 minutes of intermittent working time or 30 minutes of continuous use.
Important: For optimal battery lifespan, charge the battery to 50% to 75% capacity for storage and recharge it at least once every 3 to 6 months.
5.2 Loading Glue Sticks
Insert a 7mm diameter glue stick into the opening at the back of the glue gun. Push it gently until it stops. Do not force the glue stick.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Powering On and Preheating
- Ensure a glue stick is loaded.
- Press and hold the ON/OFF switch for 2-3 seconds to turn on the glue gun. The Working Status Indicator will light up red, indicating that the gun is heating.
- Wait approximately 100 seconds for the glue gun to preheat. The MCH heating system ensures rapid and consistent temperature.
- When the Working Status Indicator changes from red to green, the glue gun is ready for use.
