appliance to rain or wet conditions. Water en-
tering a heating appliance will create an electric
shock hazard.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
to carry the heating appliance or pull the
plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Re-
place damaged cords immediately. Damaged
cords create electric shock hazard.
• When operating a heating appliance with
an extension cord while outdoors, use only
extension cords marked W–A or W. These
cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the
risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use COMMON SENSE when operating a
heating appliance. A moment of inattention or
use of drugs, alcohol or medication while oper-
ating a heating appliance can be dangerous.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear safety
goggles. Dust mask, protective gloves, safety
shoes or non-skid shoes, must be used for
appropriate conditions.
• Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch
is "OFF" before plugging in. Carrying the
heating appliance with your finger on the switch
or plugging in the heating appliance that has
switch "ON" invites accidents.
• Do not direct hot tip or nozzle toward cloth-
ing, hands or other body parts. Intense heat
from tip or nozzle can cause serious burns or
cause clothing to ignite.
• Do not touch nozzle or shield until com-
pletely cool. During use very high tempera-
tures are generated in these areas.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
body, clothing and gloves away from nozzle or
shield. Clothing or hair could ignite from ex-
treme heat.
• Do not overreach, keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Proper footing and
balance enables better control of the heating
appliance in unexpected situations.
Tool Use and Care
• Do not use heating appliance if switch does
not turn it "ON" or "OFF". Any tool which
cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source

before making any adjustments or changing
accessories. Such preventative safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the heating appliance
accidentally.
• Store idle heating appliance only after
adequate cooling period, indoors in high,
dry place out of the reach of children and
untrained persons. Heating appliances are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained persons.
• Do not leave heating appliance unattended
while it is running or cooling down. Always
set tool on a flat, level surface so that nozzle tip
is directed upwards, away from supporting sur-
face while running or cooling down.
• Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher close
at hand for emergency use.
• Heating appliance service must be per-
formed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unquali-
fied personnel may result in misplacing internal
wiring and components which could cause se-
rious hazard.
