Abstract
An apparatus (10) for applying fluid roof panel adhesive to a substrate includes a holding tank (12) for holding a supply of adhesive vertically above the substrate. The tank is supported by a pair of spaced wheels (14) and has a handle (16) to enable moving the device over the substrate. Openings (32) in a lower wall (30) of the tank enable adhesive to flow onto the substrate. Blocking members (36) associated with each opening are movable in response to the position of a lever (20) to enable or prevent flow of adhesive through the openings. Movement of the apparatus over the substrate provides for controlled deposition of uniformly spaced beads of adhesive suitable for holding roof panels to the substrate.
