The distance to the object being processed
depends on the material and intended
processing type. Always first carry out an inspec-
tion of air volume and temperature! The attachable
nozzles (see chapter 8) available as accessories
can be used for precise hot air control to a specific
point or a surface.
Take care when changing hot nozzles!

The sliding switch (4) can be used to switch the
tool on and off and for selecting between 3 stages.
The air volume is varied in the three stages from
3.6/10.6/15.0 cf/min.
At stage 1 of the sliding switch (4) the temperature
is always 120 °F (cold-air stage). Use the cold-air
stage to dry paint, cool workpieces or to cool
down the nozzle before changing an accessory
part.
At stage 2 and 3 of the sliding switch (4) the
temperature can be set steplessly at the adjusting
wheel (11).
The numbers 1 - 9 shown on the adjusting wheel
are used for orientation. "1" means 120 °F. "9"

reached.
When the heat gun is switched off, the last value
set is retained.
