Safety Speed 72GP Edgebander, Glue Pot

The Glue Pot Edgebander applies glue to your panel, before edgebanding it and trimming it at up to 24 feet per minute. Engineered with a temperature controlled Glue Pot, the 72GP prevents glue from overheating or splattering. The 72GP Edgebander is the ideal solution for smaller woodworking shops currently edgebanding inefficiently or doing it by hand. Two industrial routers and knives provide trimming and minimizes the need to sand or file edges from material.

This dependable glue pot machine with adjustable glue extrusion performs similar to other units costing thousands of dollars more. The price and performance of this machine makes it the perfect choice for the small to medium sized woodworking shop.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean After Each Use: Remove glue residue, dust, and debris from the glue pot, feed rollers, and other components. Use a soft cloth or a non-abrasive cleaner. Pay special attention to the glue pot area to prevent dried glue buildup.

• Glue Pot Maintenance: Regularly clean the glue pot and heating elements to prevent glue from hardening. Use the manufacturer's recommended solvents and cleaning tools to remove excess glue.

• Inspect Nozzles and Glue Feed System: Check glue nozzles for clogs and clean them thoroughly. Ensure the glue feed system is free of blockages to guarantee consistent glue application.

• Lubricate Moving Parts: Lubricate feed rollers, chains, and other moving parts as per the manufacturer's guidelines to reduce friction and keep parts running smoothly.

• Check Belt and Feed System: Inspect belts for wear, proper tension, and alignment. Replace or adjust if needed to ensure smooth material feeding.

• Monitor Glue Pot Temperature: Regularly check the temperature of the glue pot to make sure it stays within the recommended range. Ensure the thermostat is calibrated correctly for optimal glue flow.

• Inspect Electrical and Heating Elements: Check for proper function of electrical components and heating elements. Ensure that all electrical connections are secure and free of wear.

• Dust Collection System: Keep the dust collection system clean and free of blockages to maintain proper airflow and efficiency. Clean or replace filters as needed.
