Troubleshooting

Glue gun not heating up

Ensure the power cord is securely connected to both the gun and the power outlet. If using the charging station, verify it is plugged in. Check if the power outlet is functioning by testing another appliance.

Glue is not flowing

Make sure a glue stick is fully inserted and pushed forward. Check for any obstructions in the nozzle. Ensure the gun has reached its operating temperature.

Excessive glue dripping

Utilize the integrated drip tray on the charging station. Ensure the gun is stored properly on its stand when not in active use to minimize dripping.

Poor adhesion of glue

Ensure both surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Make sure the glue gun has reached its optimal operating temperature and that the glue is applied evenly.
