In this guide, we will provide you with a step-by-step process for fixing broken glue on furniture edging strips using a 770 edging machine.

Step 1: Identify the Problem

The first step is to identify the source of the problem. There are a few possible causes of broken glue, including:
Incorrect glue application
Improper machine settings
Damaged edging strips
Poor surface preparation

Once you have identified the source of the problem, you can begin to take steps to fix it.

Step 2: Clean the Edging Strips

The next step is to clean the edging strips. This will remove any dirt or debris that may be preventing the glue from adhering properly. Use a clean cloth dampened with a mild cleaner to wipe down the strips. Allow them to dry completely before proceeding.

Step 3: Apply New Glue

Once the edging strips are clean, you can apply new glue. Use a high-quality glue that is specifically designed for use with furniture edging strips. Apply a thin, even layer of glue to the back of the strips. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the glue that you are using.

Step 4: Set the Machine

The next step is to set the machine. The settings will vary depending on the type of edging machine that you are using. In general, you will need to adjust the following settings:
Speed
Pressure
Temperature

It is important to experiment with the settings to find the optimal combination for your particular machine and edging strips.

Step 5: Apply the Edging Strips

Once the machine is set, you can apply the edging strips. Place the strips on the edge of the workpiece and align them carefully. Press down on the strips with your fingers and hold them in place for a few seconds. The machine will then automatically apply the edging strips to the workpiece.

Step 6: Inspect the Work

Once the edging strips have been applied, inspect the work to make sure that they are properly adhered. Run your finger along the edge of the workpiece to feel for any gaps or rough spots. If you find any problems, you can use a heat gun or a hot iron to re-heat the glue and press the strips down again.
