HG 650 2000
To increase the temperature, press "
on the button, to decrease the temperature,
press"
" (5a).
Briefly pressing the button increases or
decreases the temperature by 10 °C. Pressing
and holding down the button continuously
increases or decreases the temperature by
10 °C until the button is released or the
maximum/minimum temperature is reached.
The set target temperature is shown in the
display (4). The actual temperature at the
nozzle output is displayed.
WARNING!
When you reduce the temperature, it does
not take long for the heat gun to cool down.
The 1 stage is suitable for cooling down a
heated workpiece or for drying paint. It is
likewise suitable for cooling down the heat
gun before turning off or replacing the
attachment nozzles.
Using the heat gun
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove
or attach nozzle attachment until tool has
cooled to room temperature.
NOTE
Do not position the nozzle too close to the
workpiece that you are using the power
tool on. The resulting air blockage can lead
to the heat gun overheating.
The distance between the nozzle and the
workpiece depends on the material you
are working on (metal, plastic etc.) and the
intended working method.
The optimum temperature for each
application can be determined by a practical
test.
Always test the amount of air and temperature
first. Start at a greater distance and a lower
power setting. Then adjust the distance and
power setting according to requirements.
If you are unsure what material you are working
on or what effect the hot air might have on it,
first test the effect on a concealed area.
You can work without accessories for all
examples of work. However, using the
recommended accessories will simplify the
work and considerably increase the quality of
the result.
Removing varnish/loosening
" (5b)
adhesives (see figure G)
Fit the flat nozzle attachment (7). Briefly soften
the varnish with hot air and remove it with a
clean spatula. Long heat exposure burns the
varnish and makes removal more difficult.
Many adhesives can be softened using
heat. By heating adhesives, you can break
connections or remove excess adhesive.
Stripping paint from window
frames (see figure H)
The flat nozzle attachment (7) must be used
for this application. There is a risk that the
glass may break.
You can remove the paint from profiled
surfaces with a suitable spatula and brush it
off with a soft wire brush.
Thawing frozen water pipes(see
figure I)
Before applying heat to the pipe, check it
is in fact a water pipe. Water pipes and gas
pipes often look identical from the outside. Gas
pipes must under no circumstances be heated.
Fit the reflector nozzle attachment (9).
Gradually heat the frozen points of the
pipe, starting at the outlet and moving back
towards the inlet.
Take great care when warming plastic pipes
and pipe connections to avoid causing
damage.
Shaping plastic pipes(see figure
J)
Fit the reflector nozzle attachment (9). Fill
plastic pipes with sand and seal them on both
sides to prevent the pipe bending. Carefully
and evenly heat the pipe by moving the tool
back and forth from one side to the other.
Welding plastic(see figure K)
Fit the reduction nozzle attachment (8) and
the welding shoe(k-1 not supplied). The
workpiece requiring welding and the welding
wire must be made from the same material
(e.g. both PVC). The seam must be clean and
free from grease.
