Ask the vendor. - John
Sounds to me that they want you to only use their glue sticks rather than what is more commonly available. Possibility that it is a better grade glue, but I have no clue. I did see a hot melt glue gun at my wood store that they said is used in flooring. Apparently it is hard enough to be sanded and finished.

Thank you John and Robo Hippy for your posts
I did what John suggested and contacted the seller The gun will only advance the thicker 5/8" glue sticks

We used those guns with the Quad Track feeding option in the model shop at Caterpillar. Used glue sticks by the case there. I think you could overheat the heater and under heat the stick from lack of 360 degree contact with the undersized glue stick
