---------------------------------------------------------

These tips will maximize the efficiency of the tool’s performance:

• Always use protective gloves when using the tool to prevents burns.
• To turn the HB 700K on press and hold the top right hand button on the right side of the digital display on the bottom of the handle.
• After turning the HB 700K on, hold down the set button and up arrow key to set your operating temperature 250-284F.
• When using the HB 700K tool always keep the tool nozzle pointed downward; never use the tool in a level or up position.

• Never attempt to open or operate the HB 700 tool until it has reached the operating temperature (HOT). The Lid will break if opened cold.
• Do not close the cartridge lid until the polyurethane adhesive cartridge is hot. The cartridge will puncture easier when hot.
• Do not use the tool above the operating temperature of the polyurethane adhesive 266-284F.
• Use the tongs that come with the tool when removing the cartridge.
• Keep the tool pointed upwards when removing the cartridge to keep any adhesive from dripping back into the nozzle.
• The HB 700 must be purged with purge cleaner U7588 when you finish using the tool for the day!
• The U7588 purge cleaner is a blue color, and you must purge the tool for 3-5 minutes to remove the adhesive.
• Failure to purge the tool will void your warranty and make the tool un-usable. Must be repaired and parts replaced.
• Leave the purge cartridge in the tool overnight. The next morning, run a little purge through the tool again before inserting the adhesive cartridge.
• If you do not use the entire cartridge of adhesive place a strip of duct tape over the back of the cartridge and cover the cartridge tip with a lithium grease or Vaseline so that the adhesive cartridge is air tight to prevent any premature drying of adhesive making it unusable. This procedure will allow you to utilize the entire adhesive cartridge.
• Avoid dropping the HB 700K tool as it can break. See Tool Stand in Hand Held Brochure in the above attachment.
