NOTE: READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE EQUIPMENT AND KEEP THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
This equipment may be used by children of at least 8 years old and persons with reduced physical, mental or sensory capabilities, and persons unfamiliar with the equipment,  if supervision or instruction is provided on how to use the equipment safely so that the hazards involved are understood. Children should not play with the equipment.  Children should not carry out unsupervised cleaning and maintenance of the equipment.
Careless use of the tanner can cause a fire, therefore:

• care should be taken when using the heat gun in areas where flammable materials are present,
• Do not direct the hot air flow at the same place for a long time,
• do not use the heat gun in the presence of an explosive atmosphere,
• be aware that heat can be transferred to combustible materials outside the field of vision,
• after using the tanner, leave it to cool down before storing,
• do not leave the heat gun switched on unattended.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES

• Wear safety goggles when using the heat gun.
• Neither the air inlet opening nor the outlet nozzle opening of the tanner may be obstructed.
• Do not touch the tanning nozzle, while it is in use or just after the tanner has stopped working.
• The handle of the tanner must be kept clean, no traces of oil or grease may be allowed on it.
• When working outdoors, do not use the tanner when it is raining or when the air is very damp.
• Do not set the tanner aside while it is switched on.
• Do not direct the air flow from the tanner for too long at one place.
• From time to time, any accumulated paint residue should be removed from the nozzle of the heat gun to prevent spontaneous combustion.
• Before using the heat gun, always make sure that the surface to be heated is not flammable.
• When removing oil-based paints containing lead, work must only be carried out in well-ventilated areas. The vapours from such paints are toxic. Wear a respirator.
• Turpentine, solvents or petrol must not be used as aids when using the heat gun.
• Do not touch heated up components of the hot air tool immediately after use. Burns caused by non-compliance with these instructions are the main danger associated  with working with a blowtorch.
• Do not point the working tanner towards any person or animal (e.g.  to dry hair). The air temperature of a blowtorch is considerably higher than that of a hair dryer.

Despite the inherently safe design, the use of protective equipment and additional protective measures, there is always a residual risk of injury during work.
ATTENTION! The device is designed for indoor operation.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PICTOGRAMS USED

1. Read the operating instructions and observe the warnings and safety conditions contained therein!
2. Caution! Hot surfaces!
3. Second class of protection
4. The product meets the requirements of the EU directive

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE

The torch is used for removing paint coatings, heating up stubbornthreaded connections in order to make them easier to unscrew and forheating up frozen water pipes, locks, padlocks, etc. The torch can also beused for drying wooden parts before mechanical working, shrinking heat shrink sleeves, soldering and other works requiring heating by a stream ofdry, hot air. The torch is designed for amateur use only.

OPERATION OF THE DEVICE

Before starting work, make sure the conditions are right.
Position
Make sure that there are no objects in the vicinity that restrict free movement and prevent comfortable and safe working.
Power source
Ensure that the power source to which the tanner is to be connected conforms with the specifications on the tanner’s rating plate.
Switch
Make sure that the switch is in the off position. If you insert the plug into the power socket when the switch is in the on position, a serious accident may occur as the tanner  starts working immediately.
Functional check
When the device is started up, it should work evenly without jams. If any abnormalities are found, work on the appliance must be discontinued.
Nozzle selection
Depending on the type of work to be carried out, (if necessary) a suitable additional nozzle can be fitted by sliding it onto the outlet nozzle. Each additional nozzle can be  positioned at any angle from 0° to 360° in the axis of the torch. The use of additional nozzles facilitates the work, ensuring its accuracy.

• Surface nozzle – protects e.g. window panes from overheating by redirecting the hot air flow. Particularly useful for removing paint coatings.
• Diffusing nozzle – ensures even distribution of hot air for small areas.
• Reduction nozzle – provides a targeted hot air stream for processing in corners and for soldering.
• Reflector nozzle – designed for soldering, shaping plastic pipes, defrosting water installations and shrinking heat shrink sleeves.

Caution: Do not cover the air inlet openings as this may cause the power tool to overheat.
Note: Additional accessories are not included.

Switching on/off
Note: the mains voltage must correspond to the voltage specified on the tanner’s rating plate. Ensure that the power button is in the 0 position before connecting to the  power supply.
The unit connected to the power supply is switched on by moving the switch button to a position other than 0.

• Position 0 – switched off
• Position I – temperature 350°C, flow 300 l/min
• Position II – temperature 550°C, flow 500 l/min

The first time you switch on the tanner, a small amount of smoke may be present. This is normal and should disappear after a short time.

Working with the tool
Select the appropriate operating mode depending on the activity.
When changing from position II to position I, wait a while for the unit to cool down.
The distance of the nozzle from the workpiece must be adjusted according to the type of workpiece and the type of additional nozzle used. The most suitable temperature  should be determined by testing, so start working in the low temperature range.

Plastic pipe shaping / de-icing

• Place the reflector nozzle on the outlet nozzle. To avoid constriction, fill the pipe with sand and close it on both sides.
• Heat the pipe evenly by moving it in relation to the heat gun.
• Always heat frozen areas of water pipes from the edge to the centre.
  Heat plastic pipes and joints between pipe pieces particularly carefully to avoid damage.
  Caution! Under no circumstances must the gas pipes be heated!

Paint stripping

• Switch on the tanner and set the correct working temperature.
• Direct a jet of hot air onto the surface to be coated with paint. After a short time the paint will start to blister. Do not allow the paint to burn, as this will make it difficult to remove.
• When removing paint with a paint scraper or spatula, use a gradual up-and-down motion. If the spatula encounters an area where the paint cannot be removed, carefully  move the heat gun closer to facilitate further paint removal. Clean the spatula blade from time to time.
• Remove the paint before it has hardened, otherwise it will cling to the spatula blade.
• When work is complete, any remaining paint should be quickly removed from the spatula with a wire brush before it coagulates.
  Caution: Do not use plastic spatulas to remove heated paint with a paint stripper.
  Shortly after use, the torch nozzle is hot. Avoid direct contact and wear suitable protective gloves or wait for it to cool down.
