Abstract:

An apparatus for coating a wall covering with paste or other adhesive and for cutting the coated covering at its desired length. A coating station, having wall covering supply roll supports, for applying adhesive to the back of a wall covering and a cutting station for cutting the coated covering material at its desired length are fixed to an articulated foldable work table generally at one end thereof. The work table includes spaced side sections defining an aisle and a longitudinal center section normally biased to fill the aisle, but which may be urged toward the coating and cutting stations by body pressure from the waist of the operator and, as the operator walks the covering backward, the center section follows in continuous resumption of its first position to cooperate with the side sections to form a platform for supporting the coated wall covering.
