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 before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
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 misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's
operation. 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 operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEAT GUNS
BEFORE USE:
• Check the functioning of the tool before each use and,
in case of a defect, have it repaired immediately by a
qualifi ed person; never open the tool yourself
• Inspect tool cord and plug before each use and, if
damaged, have them replaced by a qualifi ed person
• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with
a capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)
• Inspect the extension cord periodically and replace it,
if damaged
• Only use the original SKIL accessories supplied with the
tool
• Use the tool and its accessories in accordance with this
instruction manual and in the manner intended for the
tool; use of the tool for operations, different from those
normally expected to be performed by the tool, could
result in a hazardous situation
• This tool should not be used by people under the age of
16 years
• This tool is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the tool by a person responsible for
their safety
• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the
voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool
• Be sure tool is switched off when plugging in
DURING USE:
• Handle the tool with care; prevent fire and burns
- do not touch the air outlet/nozzle and the heated
object; they become extremely hot
- do not hold the air outlet/nozzle too close to the
object to be worked on
- do not direct the hot air fl ow towards the same
surface for too long
- never look down the air outlet/nozzle
- wear protective gloves and use safety glasses
- never direct the hot air fl ow towards persons or
animals
- never use the tool for drying hair
- do not leave the tool unattended
- never use the tool in the proximity of infl ammable
gases or combustible materials (risk of explosion)
- when working with plastic, paint, varnish and similar
materials, infl ammable and poisonous gases may be
produced; inform yourself beforehand about the
materials to be worked on
- take into account, that heat may be transferred to
combustible materials out of eyesight
- to be on the safe side, have a bucket of water or a
fi re extinguisher handy, in case any material catches
fi re
• Prevent electrical shock
- never poke anything down the air outlet/nozzle
- avoid body contact with earthed surfaces (e.g. pipes,
radiators, ranges, refrigerators)
- ensure the tool does not get wet
- do not use the tool in damp locations
- when used outdoors, connect the tool via a fault
current (FI) circuit breaker with a triggering current of
30 mA maximum, and only use an extension cord
which is intended for outdoor use and equipped with
a splashproof coupling-socket
• Handle the cord with care
- always keep away the cord from the hot air fl ow and
the air outlet/nozzle
- keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges
- do not carry the tool by the cord, and do not yank the
cord to disconnect it from the socket
- do not suspend the tool by the cord
• Never use the tool in conjunction with chemical solvents
• Make sure work area is adequately ventilated
• Keep work area clean and well lit
• Keep children away from work area
• Ensure that children do not play with the tool
• Inrush currents cause short-time voltage drops; under
unfavourable power supply conditions, other equipment
may be affected (if the system impedance of the power
supply is lower than 0,127 + j0,079 Ohm, disturbances
are unlikely to occur); if you need further clarifi cation,
you may contact your local power supply authority
• Stay alert; watch what you are doing, use common
sense and do not operate the tool when you are tired
