SPECIFIC SAFETY ADVICE
To be read in conjunction with the advice in the accompanying booklet on safety advice.
Never use the equipment as a hair dryer.
Never block the air inlet or outlet.
Do not position the nozzle too near the workpiece. Obstructing the airflow can lead to the equipment overheating.
Before using the equipment, check the mains lead and plug for damage. Have any damaged parts repaired or replaced at a specialist repair centre.
If the mains lead or plug is damaged, turn off the hot air gun immediately and don't use it again.
The heat given out by the equipment can be transferred to flammable materials not in the immediate field of view.
Do not use the equipment in an explosive atmosphere (danger of explosion).
Never leave the equipment switched on and unattended.
Improper use can lead to fire.
Do not aim the airflow directly at people or animals.
Do not touch the hot air nozzle, use protective gloves.
Before putting the equipment away after use, let it cool down completely.
When not in use, always store the equipment in a dry place, locked away and inaccessible to children.

The equipment can quickly become a source of danger if you do not observe the safety instructions.
Work with particular care when using the equipment near flammable materials. Never apply it for too long to one place.
The high heat output of this equipment increases the danger of fire and explosion. The steam and gases produced can be dangerous to health.
Make sure that your workplace is always well ventilated.
After using the equipment, place it down with the nozzle pointing upwards and before storing let it cool down completely.
Always keep the mains lead away from the machine's working area and fed to the rear of the machine.

MAINTENANCE OF YOUR HOT AIR GUN
1. To work safely and in accordance with the regulations see that the air vents are always kept clean.

directly from the manufacturer or a specialist service centre.
3. Do not allow liquids to get inside the hot air gun. Use a soft cloth to clean the housing. Never use petrol, solvents or cleaners that might
attack the plastic.

ADVICE ON WORKING METHODS, TIPS AND TRICKS
Caution! Danger of fire and explosion.
Working with plastics, paints, varnishes and similar materials can give rise to flammable and poisonous gases.
This applies particularly when removing old paint.
Start off your work using a low temperature setting and test to find out the most suitable temperature. The appropriate distance from the nozzle
to the workpiece depends on the material you are working on.
Additional advice can be obtained from D.I.Y. or specialists shops and in specialist handicraft books.
Removing varnishes, see Figure (A)
For removing varnishes use the flat nozzle or the spatula nozzle . Soften the varnish evenly with hot air and lift it with a scraper. Make
sure that the scraper is always sharp and clean. Do not apply heat for too long as this burns the varnish and makes removal more difficult.
Where there is very little space in which to work, the thermal protective cover can be screwed off.
Removing adhesives, stickers and adhesive residues
Use the flat nozzle to remove adhesives. Many adhesives and stickers soften with the heat. The glued items can then be separated
and any residual adhesive removed.
Shaping plastic pipes
Use the reflector nozzle for shaping plastic pipes. Avoid buckling the pipe by filling it with sand and sealing both ends. By moving the gun
from side to side you will warm the pipe evenly.
Use the cone nozzle for precise work, e.g. For soldering and de-soldering. Caution! Do not overheat the equipment.
Unfreezing water pipes – Do not use for thawing PVC pipes.
Use the reflector nozzle for thawing water pipes and always warm the pipe from the frozen part outwards. Caution! It is extremely difficult
to tell the difference between water pipes and gas pipes. Copper pipes have soldered joints and therefore are not to be heated above 200 0 C.
Use hot air to dry off joints and scratches before painting.
Threaded connections, e.g. on cars, are often rusted or very securely joined together. Warm threaded connections with hot air and then the
bolts can be easily loosened.
Dry the joints between ceramic tiles and save time. The time required for grout to dry e.g. in the bathroom, WC or kitchen can be considerably
reduced by using hot air. This allows you to start the final cleaning process on the same day.
If no amount of soaking with water is enough to remove old wallpaper - hot air can help. Apply hot air to well-soaked wallpaper and it will
come off easily with a scraper.
Dry out weeds and their seeds. There is no need to pollute the environment with chemicals to remove weeds from between stones and paving
slabs. Hot air will dry out the weeds and their seeds.
Quickly bring the charcoal or briquettes in your barbecue to the right temperature and get it glowing without the use of any dangerous fluids.
Create a small glowing area first by placing some larger lumps of charcoal or briquettes in a corner of the barbecue with pieces of barbecue
lighter between them (small pieces are usually the best). Make sure the fire does not suffocate and is burning well. When all the pieces of
barbecue lighter have burned away and the charcoal has a white coating (if not, repeat the exercise with the pieces of barbecue lighter),
spread the glowing charcoal evenly in the barbecue tray and add the remaining charcoal over it. The process of getting the charcoal to glow
can be accelerated by applying hot air with the gun at its lower setting, see Figure (B). Depending on the quality of the charcoal or briquettes
you may have to watch out for sparks. Keep any flammable materials and objects at an appropriate distance and for your own safety, wear
protective glasses and clothing.
Further practical tips for power tools can be found in the accompanying booklet on safety advice.
We reserve the right to make technical modifications in course of further development.
