Always read the safety information included in this manual
before using the Heat Gun.
1. Plug the Heat Gun into a standard socket-outlet.
2. Turn on the Heat Gun by moving the switch to the desired
setting. The motor-driven fan noise will indicate that the Heat
Gun is running.
3. Always disconnect Heat Gun from the power supply at
completion of task.
Hands-free operation
The Heat Gun has an integrated stand (Fig. 3) for bench top
applications and for cooling down.

Note: Smoke may appear during the first start up due to the
burning of manufacturing oils. The smoke should disperse
shortly after first start up.
IMPORTANT: If the motor-driven fan in the Heat Gun does not
turn on when the switch is set to either LOW or HIGH, turn the
switch OFF immediately. The heating element will burn out if it is
not cooled by the motor-driven fan.

Note: Always set the Heat Gun upright after it is turned off, either
for a short break or for storage. Avoid laying the unit on the
side after shutdown. The heat will remain in the unit and
cooling will take longer. Store the unit only after the nozzle
is cool. Unplug the unit before storing to prevent accidental
startup.
IMPORTANT: Always protect glass when working near windows.
Do not touch nozzle or any other tool being used when
working. These become extremely hot and will cause
severe burns. Wear gloves to protect hands from hot
scrapings.
Stripping Paint
The Heat Gun heats up the surface and causes the paint to soften, at
which time it can be scraped off easily without damaging the surface.
Some paints may soften even though they do not blister; some may
become rubbery, and some may require higher heat.
When working with several layers of paint, it speeds up the scraping
process to heat the surface thoroughly, all the way to the wood. Then
all the layers can be scraped at one time.
A soft wire brush may be the best tool to use for very intricate
surfaces. Mineral paints and finishes, such as cement paint and
porcelain, do not soften with heat, so using a heating tool will not
work for paint removal.
