Hazard: eXPLOSION Or FIre
This heat gun produces extremely high temperatures (as high as 650º F). It must
be used with caution to prevent combustible material from igniting.
PreveNTION:
• Keep the gun in constant motion. Do not stop or dwell in one spot.
• Use extreme caution if the other side of the material
being scraped is inaccessible, such as house siding.
Hidden areas such as behind walls, ceilings, floors,
soffit boards and other panels may contain flammable
materials that could be ignited by the heat gun when
working in these locations. The ignition of these
materials may not be readily apparent and could
result in property damage and injury to persons. When
working in these locations, keep the heat gun moving
in a back-and-forth motion. Lingering or pausing in one
spot could ignite the panel or the material behind it.
• Do not use near surfaces with cracks or near metal pipes or flashing. Heat may be
conducted behind the work surface and ignite hidden material. The ignition of hidden
materials may not be readily apparent and can result in property damage and injury.
• Do not use electric tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
• Do not use near combustible materials such as dry grass, leaves, and paper which can
scorch and catch fire.
• The nozzle becomes very hot. Do not lay the heat gun on flammable surfaces when
operating the gun or immediately after shutting the gun off. Always set the gun on a flat,
level surface so that the nozzle tip is directed upwards and away from the supporting
surface.
• Do not touch the nozzle until the tool has cooled.
• Do not use the heat gun as a hair dryer.
• Tools and paint scrapings become very hot. To avoid burns, use work gloves and eye
protection when scraping.
• Always treat the hot air units with the same respect as an open flame.
Hazard: eLeCTrIC
May cause property damage, severe injury or loss of life.
PreveNTION:
• Do not disassemble the heat gun.
• Do not work in wet areas or expose the heat gun to rain.
• Guard against electric shock by preventing body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, aluminum ladders or other grounded devices.
• Do not abuse the electric cord. Never carry the heat gun by the cord or yank on the cord
to disconnect if from the power supply. Keep the electric cord away from heat, oil and
sharp edges. Inspect the cord for wear or damage regularly.
• Use only extension cords rated for outdoor use. If an extension cord is damaged or
otherwise unsuitable for use, replace it with a new cord.
• This heat gun has a polarized plug. One blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk
of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
• WarNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or
moisture. Store indoors. Read instruction manual before using.
