NOTE: If the bead of caulk is too narrow, re-cut the nozzle
to provide a larger opening. However, it is better to apply
a thin bead of caulk and add a little more if necessary than
to apply too much and attempt to remove the excess.
Carefully move the caulk gun at an even pace along the
gap to be filled as you continue to depress the switch
trigger. Make sure the caulk comes in full contact with
both application surfaces. If necessary, use your finger
to gently press the caulk into a corner or crack.
NOTE: The best fill is usually achieved by pushing the
caulk out into the gap in a forward motion. However, in
some cases (particularly where the side materials are
rough or uneven), a pulling motion may work better as
the cartridge will be less likely to get snagged along the
joint.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts could create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the
battery pack from the product when cleaning or
performing any maintenance.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

The motor will shut off automatically when a caulk tube
becomes empty. Pull the plunger rod back and replace
the caulk tube as necessary.
To end the caulk bead, release the switch trigger.
Draw a moistened finger or other "smoothing tool" along
the caulk bead after applying. This will help the caulk
adhere to the application surfaces and will create a clean,
finished appearance.
Use a damp towel or rag to clean off any excess caulk.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
