started on the threads, tighten the remain-
der with an adjustable wrench until the tip
is secured tightly on the glue gun. Place
the silicon safety sleeve over the new tip.
The glue gun is now ready for use.
Anti-Drip Feature
The Anti-Drip feature is activated by
releasing the trigger which will cut off the
flow of glue into the channel. A small
amount of glue will remain in the tip when
the trigger is released and this will need to
drain from the tip. To optimize the Anti-
Drip feature, release the trigger and allow
the small amount of melted glue remaining
in the tip to drain onto project surface
before setting glue gun on stand. If you
would prefer to allow this small amount of
melted glue to drain elsewhere, set your
glue gun a non-porous surface such as a
tile or flat piece of tin. It is recommended
that you use this protective surface at all
times when working with your glue gun.
When the glue gun is not in use, prop the
glue gun on the spring-loaded stand. If the
spring loaded stand is not used, the tool
will lay on it’s side. Do not lay the glue gun
on its side. To open stand, press button on
side of glue gun. To retract stand, careful-
ly fold in to original position.
Pop-Up Stand
To stabilize the glue gun on a flat surface
use the pop-up stand. To release the pop-
up stand, press the button on either side of
the glue gun. To retract the stand, push
back into the locked position with your
forefinger.
Headlight
The headlight will remain on when the glue
gun is in one of the one positions (Lo/Hi).
To turn the light off, slide the glue gun
switch to the off position.
Squeeze the trigger repeatedly until hot
glue begins to flow from the nozzle.
NOTE: For your first use, you may need
to load up to two full glue sticks before glue
begins to flow.
Changing Glue Sticks
Do not attempt to remove the unused por-
tion of the glue stick from your glue gun. If
you need to switch glue stick formulas,
empty the melting chamber by squeezing
the trigger and insert new formula.
Changing Nozzles
Disconnect the plug
from the power source
and allow the tool to cool before
attempting to change the nozzle. Such
preventative safety measures reduce
the risk of accidental burns.
The Dremel Glue Gun comes with two
additional tips. The first tip is a fine point
tip for laying down very fine lines where a
small amount of glue is needed. The sec-
ond tip is a spreader tip for laying down a
wider strip of glue. To remove the stan-
dard nozzle from the glue gun and replace
it with a different nozzle, start by removing
the silicon safety sleeve. Place a
adjustable wrench around the collar of the
nozzle and turn the wrench counter-clock-
wise until the nozzle is loose. Using your
hand, pull the nozzle off the threads.
Place the new nozzle on the threads and
begin to tighten by hand. Once the tip is
