USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension
cords with the tool – that is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry
the current the tool will draw. Use of an undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see chart below.

MOTOR
Be sure your power supply agrees with nameplate marking. Do not operate AC tools on DC. This
information is printed on the nameplate. A different voltage can cause damage to the tool. All
Black & Decker tools are factory-tested; if this tool does not operate, check the power supply.
TOOL OPERATION
SWITCH
The position of the switch controls both the fan speed and the heat output of the gun.
To turn the tool on in low speed, low heat, depress the side of the switch marked "I".
To turn the tool on in high speed, high heat, depress the side of the switch marked "II".
To turn the tool off, return the switch to the middle position marked "O".
REMOVING PAINT
Efficient paint removal requires the development of technique. Follow the guidelines in this manual
and youʼll find that you will have mastered the procedure after a few simple projects.
Turn on the tool and hold the nozzle about one inch (25mm) from the surface to be stripped, as
shown in Figure C. (Give the unit about 15-20 seconds running time to reach its full heat potential.)
The paint being heated will usually begin to blister when it reaches the proper temperature for
stripping. When it reaches this point begin scraping with smooth, even strokes. If the paint is
sufficiently hot and the scraper is properly suited to the surface being stripped, the paint should come
off in a strip equal to the full width of the scraper. Move the unit slightly ahead of the scraper to assure
that the paint being stripped is softened.
Best results will be achieved if the heat gun is moved slowly, but constantly, from side to side to
evenly distribute heat. Do not linger or pause in one spot.
Remember that splinters and small particles of stripped paint can be ignited and blown through holes
and cracks in the surface being stripped.
HINTS ABOUT PAINT STRIPPING
A smooth, downward scraping action will give good results and will help to prevent gouging the work surface.
With some paints, prolonged heating will actually make them tougher to strip. Try a few different
heating times until you develop the technique best suited to your particular application.
The heat gun is designed to remove both oil based and latex based paints.
It will not remove stains or primer coats that have impregnated the wood grain.
Scrape paint as soon as it softens, it will soon cool and harden again. Clean the edge of your scraper
often to retain a clean, sharp edge. Shield areas adjacent to where youʼre scraping.
