Important Safety Information • Read all safety information before
operating the equipment. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
the work area until the work is done and all cleanup is complete.
• Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter respirator mask for dust and fumes which has been
approved by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) the National Institute of
Safety and Health (NIOSH), or the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable filters
are readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure that the mask fits properly. Beards and facial
hair may keep masks from sealing properly. Change the filters often. Disposable paper masks are
not adequate.
• Use caution when operating the heat gun. Keep the heat gun moving as excessive heat will generate
fumes which can be inhaled by the operator.
• Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands, arms and face and rinse mouth before eating
or drinking. Do not smoke or chew gum or tobacco in the work area.
• Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the floors. Use a wet cloth to clean all walls,
sills and any other surface where paint dust is clinging. Do not sweep, dry dust or vacuum. Use a
high phosphate detergent of trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
• At the end of each work session, put the paint chips and debris in a double plastic bag, close it with
tape or twist ties and dispose of properly.
• Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work area to avoid carrying dust into the rest of
the building. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe shoes off with a wet rag and then wash it with the
work clothes. Wash hair and body thoroughly with soap and water.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
This heat gun produces extremely high temperatures (as high as 1000˚ F). It must be
used with caution to prevent combustible material from igniting.
PREVENTION:
• Keep the gun in constant motion. Do not stop or dwell in one spot.
• Use extreme caution if the other side of the material being
scraped is inaccessible, such as house siding. Hidden areas
such as behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit boards and other
panels may contain flammable materials that could be ignited
by the heat gun when working in these locations. The ignition
of these materials may not be readily apparent and could result
in property damage and injury to persons. When working in
these locations, keep the heat gun moving in a back-and-forth
motion. Lingering or pausing in one spot could ignite the panel or the material behind it.
• Do not use near surfaces with cracks or near metal pipes or flashing. Heat may be conducted behind
the work surface and ignite hidden material. The ignition of hidden materials may not be readily
apparent and can result in property damage and injury.
• Do not use electric tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• Do not use near combustible materials such as dry grass and leaves which can scorch and catch fire.
• Use extreme caution when working near paper.
• The nozzle becomes very hot. Do not lay the heat gun on flammable surfaces when operating the
gun or immediately after shutting the gun off. Always set the gun on a flat, level surface so that the
nozzle tip is directed upwards and away from the supporting surface.
