Features - Getting started
Please note: The distance from the object you are working on depends on material and intended method
of working. Always try out the airflow and temperature on a test piece first! Using the attachable accessory
nozzles (see accessories page on the cover) the flow of hot air can be controlled with maximum precision.
Take care when changing hot nozzles! When using the heat gun in the self-resting position, make sure
it is standing on a stable, non-slip and clean surface.
HG 5010 / HG 5011
The tool is switched ON and OFF at the two-stage switch (6) on the back of the grip handle (HG 5011) or on
the front of the grip handle (HG 5010). Airflow and temperature can be adjusted to 2 settings. Stage 1 reaches
300 °C at an airflow of 240 l/min, stage 2 reaches 500 °C at 450 l/min.
HG 6010
HG 5010
The tool is switched ON and OFF at the three-stage switch (6) on the back of the grip handle. Airflow
and temperature can be adjusted to 3 settings. Stage 1 is a cold-air stage at 50 °C with an airflow rate of
230 – 240 V, 50 Hz
200 l/min. Stage 2 reaches 400 °C at an airflow of 300 l/min, stage 3 delivers 600 °C at 500 l/min. The
guard sleeve (3) detaches at a bayonet catch.

The tool is switched ON and OFF at the two-stage switch (6) on the back of the grip handle. In addition to
240

three-stage speed/airflow control (stage 1 is a cold-air stage at 50 °C ), temperature can be continuously
adjusted over a range of 50 °C – 600 °C at the thumbwheel (7). The numbers (1 to 9) on the thumbwheel
300
500
serve as a guide only. Whereas "1" means 50 °C, the maximum temperature of 600 °C is attained at "9". Airflow
can be adjusted to the three stages of 150/300/500 l/min. The guard sleeve (3) detaches at a bayonet catch.

HG 6300
The tool is switched ON and OFF at the three-stage switch (6) on the back of the grip handle. In addition to
three-stage speed/airflow control, temperature can be continuously adjusted over a range of 50 °C to 630 °C
by the pushbuttons (8). The target temperature can be increased in 10 °C steps by pressing the "+" side of
the temperature pushbutton (8) or reduced by pressing the "-" side of the temperature pushbutton (8).
Pressing the button briefly increases or reduces the target temperature by one 10 °C step. Keeping the button
pressed will continue to increase or reduce the temperature in steps of 10 °C until the button is released or the
minimum or maximum temperature is set.
Blower stage 1 delivers a temperature of 50 °C. The tool will take a short while to cool to 50 °C after switching
down to blower stage 1 when it has been operating at high temperatures on blower stage 2 or 3. While the
tool is cooling down, the LCD display (9) shows the actual temperature at the nozzle outlet. After switching off,
the tool stays in the last setting. The guard sleeve (3) detaches at a bayonet catch.
