General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery- operated (cordless) power tool.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
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.
Risk of burns caused by hot surfaces! Do not touch!
Protect from rain and moisture!
Outlet temperature at the nozzle max. 650 ° C!
Unplug the appliance immediately if the cable is damaged or has been cut.

General instructions for hot air blower

This appliance may be used by children aged 8 years and above and by persons with limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, provided that they are under supervision or have been told how to use the appliance safely and are aware of the potential risks. Children may not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance tasks may not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
To avoid potential risks, damaged mains cables should be replaced by the manufacturer or the manufacturer’s customer service department or a similarly qualified person.

NOTE Spare parts not listed (such as switches and replacement nozzles) can be ordered via our\ call center.

Safety instructions for the hot air blower

Take care when using the appliance in the vicinity of inflammable materials.
Do not aim at the same place for a prolonged period of time.
Do not use in the presence of an explosive atmosphere.
Heat can be transferred to combustible materials which are hidden from view.
Replace on stand after use and allow to cool before putting it away.
Do not leave the appliance unattended while it is in operation.
Careless use of the appliance can cause a fire.

Safety information for solid fuel lighters

Check that the solid fuel lighter is in the correct position.
Disconnect from mains before removing from fire.
Allow solid fuel lighter to cool down before packing away.
The power cable or other flammable materials may not come into contact with hot components of the solid fuel lighter.

Additional safety instructions

In case of danger, remove the plug from the socket immediately.
Never aim the hot air stream at people or animals.
Never look directly into the nozzle opening at the outlet .
Wear protective gloves.
Wear safety goggles.
Always remove the plug from the power socket during work breaks, when adjusting the appliance (e.g. changing nozzles) and when it is no longer in use.
Keep the nozzle at a distance from the workpiece or the area being processed. A build-up of hot air can result in damage to the appliance.
The appliance must always be kept clean, dry and free from oil or grease.
Never use the appliance for purposes other than the ones for which it was designed.

CAUTION!

Never use the appliance as a hairdryer.
Do not touch the hot nozzle
Avoid the risk of injury or fire as well as health risks

Operation

Before Operation Mount the device

Place the cover on the device and screw it with the supplied mounting screws (see Fig. A).
Mount the stand 6 Attach the stand 6 to the unit (see Fig. B).

Operation points

Push the loop of the extension cable into the provided strain relief 2 in the handle 1 and fix it to the bar provided.
Connect the appliance to a power socket (230 V alternating current) using an extension cable.
Switch the appliance on by pressing the ON/ OFF switch 4. The full operating temperature is reached after approx. 1 minute (see Fig. C).
To kill weeds, now place the cone nozzle 9 onto the plant to be treated for around 5–10 seconds depending on the type of plant. Keep at a distance of approximately 3 cm. Guide the opening of the cone nozzle slowly and parallel to the ground (see Fig. D, detailed view).
For taller plants, first only heat the upper section of the plant briefly and then place the cone nozzle 9 against the shrunken plant for approx. 5–10 seconds (see Fig. D).

NOTE

Burning the plants off completely is not essential. During heating, the leaf cells dry out and the weed will die (see Fig. F).

To begin with, overgrown areas must be treated several times at short intervals in order to produce long-term success. After this, treatment at longer intervals is sufficient. The heat flowing out of the nozzle penetrates far into the root system and causes the cell fluid of the plant cells to coagulate. This expansion causes the cell walls to burst.
This appliance is particularly suitable for removing weeds.
Weedkilling is most effective at an early stage of vegetation growth.
The most suitable time is during spring.
The treatment is at its most intensive the younger the plant is. However, the success of the measure is not immediately visible. The visible section of the plant can also be burnt off with a longer exposure time/treatment.
Plants do not react immediately to the heat radiation with the recommended treatment time. The following applies as a basic principle: young, soft-leaved plants react most sensitively to treatment. They are subsequently no longer capable of survival.
Older plants with hard leaves such as thistles must be treated more frequently at an interval of between 1 and 2 weeks in order to make them dry out. Winter-green grasses are extremely robust
and require longer treatment.
Repeated treatment of certain types of weed may be necessary.

Shutting down

♦ Release the ON/OFF switch 4.
♦ Always replace the appliance on the stand 6 after use on a level, fireproof underlay until the hot components have cooled down.

Using nozzles

Remove the cone nozzle 9

Remove the cone nozzle 9 from the outlet. Spatula nozzle 0 – removing paints or varnish
Push the spatula nozzle 0 onto the outlet.
The spatula shape of the nozzle is designed for targeted hot air delivery. Use it together with a separate spatula to remove paint and coatings.

Flat nozzle q – separating glued joints, softening paints

Push the flat nozzle q onto the outlet.
Avoid prolonged exposure to heat, since burned paint can be very difficult to remove. Many adhesives can be softened with heat. The glued joints can be separated and excess glue removed.

Reducer nozzle w – welding plastics

Push the reducer nozzle w onto the outlet.
Use the reducer nozzle w with heat-shrinkable tubing and films.
Additional usage examples for house, car and garden

Defrosting water pipes
NOTE

PVC piping must not be thawed out.
Water and gas pipes are often indistinguishable from the outside. If in doubt, always ask a professional.
Copper pipes are soldered and may not be heated to above 200°C. Slackening screwed joints
Heat screwed joints carefully with hot air and the screws can then usually be removed easily. Lighting charcoal

WARNING!

Do not use any lighter fluid.
Push the barbecue nozzle e onto the outlet .
Push the barbecue nozzle e into the charcoal. When doing so, ensure that the last three barbecue nozzle holes remain free (see Fig. E).
As soon as the charcoal has started to glow, remove the appliance from the charcoal.

De-waxing

Use the product with suitable caution to remove residual wax from skis/snowboards or candle holders.

Cleaning

Keep the air inlet and the outlet clean.
Use a cloth or a brush to clean the housing 7.
Never use petrol, solvents or cleaning agents that can damage plastic.
