Getting Started

Operation
The tool is switched ON and OFF at the 3-stage switch on the front of the grip. The distance from the object you are
working on depends on material and intended method of working. Always try out airflow and temperature on a test piece
first. Using the attachable accessory nozzles (see accessories page) the flow of hot air can be controlled with maximum
precision.

Switch the tool OFF by setting the switch to the "0" position.
Exercise 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.
Temperature setting
Setting 1 is the cool-air stage, delivering a temperature of approx. 120°F.
Use the cool-air function to cool workpieces or the nozzle for changing an attachment.
Setting 2 without nozzle delivers a temperature of 750°F. A temperature of 930°F is reached with the 7 mm reduction nozzle
included.
Hanging ring
The integrated ring allows you to hang the tool.

LED light
The LED light 7 is lit when the tool is switched on. In addition to illuminating the area you are working on, it also serves as
a telltale lamp indicating "tool ON".
Applications
The heat gun is ideal for work on small parts and for heating shrink-fit tubing.
It is particularly appreciated by electronics technicians, model-makers, car repair shops and electrical fitters.
These are some of the many applications it can be used for:

• Soldering SMD components
• Repairs and finishing
work to electronic SMD
assemblies
Removing self-adhesive tape
• Peeling stickers and films from painted and smooth surfaces
