Technical data

 Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

 Operation

Notice!
After you use the equipment for the first time, some smoke may escape from it. This is normal.

4-setting ON/OFF switch (Figure 3)

Select the required working temperature and air volume with the ON/OFF switch (2). Within a very short space of time the hot air gun will reach operating temperature.
Switch position 1:
1st setting – 50°C / 250 liters/min.
Switch position 2:
2nd setting – 50-550°C / 250 liters/min.
Switch position 3:
3rd setting – 50-550°C / 500 liters/min.
Note:
The temperature can only be adjusted in setting 2 and 3.. You can do this by turning the temperature setting wheel (6) variably back and forth between positions 1 – 9. The LED display (5) shows by 6 switch positions the temperature level that applies at the moment. In switch position 1 the LED display (5) goes off completely.
Note:
Switch position 1 is a cold air setting at 50 °C. This is when the hot air gun needs to be cooled down faster so that you can change the nozzles more quickly and avoid the danger of burns.

Possible uses for the hot air pistol:

•  Removal of paint and lacquer. Attention! Hazardous or poisonous gasses may be produced while removing paint or lacquer. Be sure to provide adequate ventilation.
•  Removal of stickers and decorations.
•  Loosening of rusted or tightly fastened nuts and metal screws.
•  Thawing of frozen pipes, door locks, etc. Attention: no not attempt to thaw plastic or synthetic pipes.
•  Accentuation of natural wood grains before staining or lacquering.
•  Shrinkage of PVC packaging foils and insulation tubes.
•  Waxing and de-waxing of skis.
•  Stationary use (see Fig. 4)
  Danger! Intensive heating means a higher risk of fi re and explosion! Ensure good ventilation. Harmful and/or toxic gases and vapors may be emitted.

Selecting the right nozzle

•  The glass protection nozzle (7) is designed to protect e.g. glass panes from overheating by diverting the hot air. For removing paint.
•  The wide jet nozzle (8) ensures uniform air distribution on small surfaces.
•  The reducer nozzle (9) provides a targeted jet of heat for corners and for soldering work.
•  The reflector nozzle (10) is designed for soldering and shaping tubes, for defrosting water pipes and for shrinking insulating hoses.
• Fit the corresponding nozzle attachment onto the nozzle (1) on the device.

Warning!
Allow the device to cool down before you change the nozzle.

Removing the guard hood (Fig. 5)
The removable guard hood (4) can be removed to facilitate work in confi ned spaces.
