a)
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.
b) IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint.
The peelings, residue and vapors of paint may
contain lead, which is poisonous. Any pre-1977
paint may contain lead and paint applied to homes
prior to 1950 is likely to contain lead. Once
deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can
result in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even
low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and
nervous system damage; young and unborn
children are particularly vulnerable.
Before beginning any paint removal process you should
determine whether the paint you are removing contains
lead. This can be done by your local health department
or by a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check
the lead content of the paint to be removed. LEAD-
BASED PAINT SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED BY A
PROFESSIONAL AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED
USING A HEAT GUN.
Persons removing paint should follow these guidelines:
1)
Move the work piece outdoors. If this is not
possible, keep the work area well ventilated. Open
the windows and put an exhaust fan in one of them.
Be sure the fan is moving the air from inside to
outside.
2)
Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture,
clothing, cooking utensils and air ducts.
3)
Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any
paint chips or peelings. Wear protective clothing
such as extra work shirts, overalls and hats.
4)
Work in one room at a time. Furnishings should
be removed or placed in the center of the room
and covered. Work areas should be sealed off from
the rest of the dwelling by sealing doorways with
drop cloths.
5)
Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant women
and nursing mothers should not be present in the
work area until the work is done and all clean up is
complete.
6)
Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter (dust
and fume) respirator mask which has been
approved by the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), the National Institute of
Safety and Health (NIOSH), or the United States
Bureau of Mines.
These masks and replaceable filters are readily
available at major hardware stores. Be sure the
mask fits. Beards and facial hair may keep masks
from sealing properly.
Change filters often. DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS
ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
7)
Use caution when operating the heat gun. Keep
the heat gun moving as excessive heat will
generate fumes which can be inhaled by the
operator.
8)
Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash
hands, arms and face and rinse mouth before
eating or drinking. Do not smoke or chew gum or
tobacco in the work area.
9)
Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet
mopping the floors. Use a wet cloth to clean all
walls, sills and any other surface where paint or
dust is clinging. DO NOT SWEEP, DRY DUST OR
VACUUM. Use a high phosphate detergent or
trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
10) At the end of each work session put the paint chips
and debris in a double plastic bag, close it with
tape or twist ties and dispose of properly.
11) Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the
work area to avoid carrying dust into the rest of
the dwelling. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe
shoes off with a wet rag that is then washed with
the work clothes. Wash hair and body thoroughly
with soap and water.
