Frequently asked questions
How do I insert a 310ml cartridge?
To load a 310ml cartridge, pull the plunger fully back. Insert the cartridge nozzle-first, then push the plunger forward until it engages the cartridge. Cut the nozzle to your required bead size before application.
Does the 360° rotating frame help with awkward angles?
Yes, the 360° rotating cradle allows you to maintain consistent bead application without repositioning your hand or wrist. This is particularly useful for vertical joints, overhead work, or around obstructions.
What types of sealants are compatible with this gun?
This gun is compatible with standard 310ml cartridges containing silicone, polyurethane, acrylic, or butyl rubber-based sealants. Always refer to the sealant manufacturer's guidelines for specific application details.
What should I do if the sealant is too stiff in cold weather?
Cold conditions can stiffen cartridges, making application difficult and increasing trigger pressure. Warm the cartridge in a bucket of warm water, not exceeding 40°C, for a few minutes before use.
