4 POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the cor-
rect power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from the
power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety meas-
ures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's op-
eration. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for op-
erations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5 SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qual-
ified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
MACHINE SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
FOR HEAT GUNS
a) Children or persons who lack the knowl-
edge or experience to use the tool or whose
physical, sensory or intellectual capacities
are limited must never be allowed to use the
tool without supervision or instruction by a
person responsible for their safety. Children
must never be allowed to play with the tool.
b) If danger arises, pull the mains plug imme-
diately out of the mains socket. Danger of
personal injury! Never use the appliance as
a hair dryer.
c) Do not direct the heat flow at persons or
animals.
d) Do not look directly into the opening of the
heat nozzle .
e) Danger of burns! Do not touch the hot noz-
zle. Wear protective gloves.
f) Wear protective glasses!
g) Danger of fire and explosion! The tool devel-
ops very high temperatures. If the tool is not
used carefully, it can give rise to increased
risk of fire or explosion.
h) Do not work in the vicinity of easily ignitable
gases or combustible materials. Heating of
plastics, paints, varnishes etc. can lead to
the creation of gases that are hazardous
to health. Make sure you always have ad-
equate ventilation.
i) Let the tool cool down completely before
you put it into storage. Always place the
heat gun down on its end on a level surface,
with the nozzle pointing upwards.
j) Never leave the tool unattended when it is
switched on.
k) When taking a break from your work, before
carrying out any tasks on the device itself
(e.g. changing the nozzle) or when you are
not using the tool, always pull the mains
plug out of the mains socket.
l) Do not direct the tool at the same spot for a
long time.
m)Maintain a distance between the jet outlet
nozzle and the workpiece or the surface be-
ing heated. An air blockage could lead to
overheating of the tool.
n) Pay attention to the direct working area and
also to its surroundings. The heat produced
