Do not use this Stripper for any purposes other than those detailed in these instructions.
To ensure long life of the steam wallpaper stripper, clean your unit immediately and
thoroughly after each use.
Caution! - Check the state of your plaster before starting work.
Steam can loosen weak, porous or poorly bonded plaster - which also loosens
readily if cracked, holed or if steam plate is held in one position for too long
after the paper is soaked.
Weak plaster can normally be detected by tapping a few areas of the wall.
A hollow sound indicates that you should proceed only with extreme care -
stopping immediately if you hear a cracking sound or plaster starts to break
loose.
The steam stripper is safe for drywall/plaster board surfaces but whatever the
material, it is always wise to check a small area before starting work.
