IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Hidden areas such
as walls, ceilings, floors, soffit
boards and other panels may
contain flammable liquids that
could be ignited by the hot air gun
when working in these locations.
The ignition of these materials
may not be apparent and could
result in property damage and
injury to persons. Do not use if in
doubt about this hazard. When
working in these locations, keep
3
the hot air gun moving in a back-
and-forth motion. Lingering or
pausing in one spot could ignite
the panel or the material behind it.
Paint Stripping
WARNING: Extreme care
should be taken when strip-
ping paint. The peelings,
residue and vapors of paint
may contain lead, which is
poisonous. Any pre-1977
paint may contain lead and
paint applied to homes prior to
1950 is likely to contain lead.
Once deposited on surfaces,
hand to mouth contact can
result in the ingestion of lead.
Exposure to even low levels of
lead can cause irreversible
brain and nervous system
damage; young and unborn
children are particularly
vulnerable.
Before beginning any paint
removal process you should
determine whether the paint
you are removing contains
lead. This can be done by
your local health department
or by a professional who used
a paint analyzer to check the
lead content of the paint to be
removed. LEAD BASED
PAINT SHOULD ONLY BE
REMOVED BY A PROFES-
SIONAL AND SHOULD NOT
BE REMOVED USING A
HOT AIR GUN.
Persons removing paint should
follow these guidelines.
1. Move the work piece out-
doors. If this is not possible,
keep the work area well
ventilated. Open the win-
dows and put an exhaust
fan in one of them. Be sure
the fan is moving the air
from inside to outside.
