5) Shave hook
Take the handle from the set, remove the nut
from the end, and fit the triangle blade in place
by refitting and
tightening the nut.
The triangular
shave hook is ideal
for stripping paint
from flat wooden
surface and edges.
Remember to clean
the blade after use with wire wool and lightly oil
before storing.
5. REMOVING PAINT
Choose the required nozzle and fit onto the heat
outlet. Select the scraper or shave hook required.
Hold the gun with the nozzle approximately
50mm (2inch) from the surface of the paintwork
and start with the lower heat setting move it
slowly backwards and forwards until the paint
blisters and bubbles. Immediately remove the
paint with the scraper or shave hook. Aim to heat
the paint just ahead of the scraper so that you
can develop a continuous action. Do not heat
the paint for too long, as this will burn the paint
making it difficult to remove.
Most stickers can also be removed from
paintwork by using the heat to soften the
adhesive. Be careful not to direct the heat for too
long if you are trying just to remove the stickers,
as this will blister the paint.
6. REMOVING PAINT FROM WINDOW
FRAMES
Always use the glass protection nozzle. Ensure
you have the nozzle facing the correct way to
deflect the heat away from the glass before you
switch on. Rotate the gun or nozzle 900 as you
move to horizontal or vertical bead. Allow nozzle
to cool before attempting to turn it. Paint can be
removed from profile surfaces by using a shave
hook and/or a soft wire brush.
WARNING: Glass can break easily.
7. DEFROSTING FROZEN PIPES
Choose the Hook nozzle and fit over the heat
outlet. Always heat from one or other end of the
frozen portion, not from the middle.
WARNING: Do not attempt to defrost PVC
pipes. Always check that it is a water pipe
and not a gas pipe. Do not heat a gas pipe.
8. SHRINK SEATING ELECTRICAL CABLES
Choose the Hook nozzle and fit over heat outlet.
Select a heat-shrinkable sleeve with a diameter
matching that of the workpiece. Evenly heat the
sleeve.
9. BENDING PLASTIC TUBE
Choose the Hook nozzle and fit over heat outlet.
Turn the gun upside down and place on its clip
stand so that it is resting on a secure bench with
the nozzle pointing
upwards, see
picture. To avoid
buckling or kinking
the tube, fill the
tube with dry sand
and seal at both
ends. Heat the tube
evenly by moving from side to side and bend to
required shape.
WARNING: Protect hands from heat.
