IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEAT GUNS
1. Remember that hidden areas such as those behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit boards and other
panels may contain flammable materials that could be accidentally ignited when stripping paint
from the panel. Such a fire would not be readily apparent, and could cause considerable damage
and danger of injury. These heat guns are capable of producing temperatures in excess
of 1000°F (538°C).
2. Do not use this tool as a hair dryer.
3. Allow the tool to cool before storing. Do not lay the heat gun on flammable surfaces when
operating the gun or immediately after shutting it off. Always set the gun on a flat level surface so
that the nozzle tip is pointed upward.
4. Always use good quality scrapers and stripping knives.
5. Never obstruct the air intake or nozzle outlet.
6. Be sure to direct the hot air blast in a safe direction; away from other people or flammable objects.
7. Keep fingers away from metal nozzle; it becomes very hot.
8. Donʼt touch the nozzle to any surface while running or shortly after running.
9. Avoid poking anything down inside the nozzle.
10. Know your work environment. Remember that areas behind soffit board, ceilings, and floors may
contain highly flammable materials. Check these areas before applying heat.
11. Clean dry paint from the nozzle after use; it could ignite.
12. Clean your scraper blade frequently during use; it could ignite.
13. Do not use the heat gun in combination with chemical strippers.
14. Do not use accessory nozzles as scrapers.
15. Keep nozzle away from cord.
16. Be constantly aware that this tool can ignite flammable materials, and soften or melt others.
Regardless of the task you are performing, shield or keep away from these materials that are
close to the work area.
You may occasionally notice some slight smoking of the tool after it is turned off. This is the result
of heating the residual oil that was deposited on the heating element during the manufacturing
process.
