Thawing of water pipes
– Always heat up the frozen section from edge to
middle. Exercise extreme caution when heating
up plastic pipes and joints between pipe sections
in order to prevent damage.
Cap nozzles
WARNING! Risk of injury! The nozzle
must not be replaced until the device has
cooled off and has been disconnected from
the mains.
• The air-blast nozzle (8) protects panes of glass,
for example, from being heated up by diverting
the air current.
• The reducing nozzle (9) produces a precise air
current which can be used for deforming synthetic
materials, for example.
• The reflector nozzle (10) produces a flat air cur-
rent which can be used for thawing frozen water
pipes, for example.
Check before switching on!
DANGER! Risk of injury! The product
