USE
• On/off switch with 3 temperature settings 4
! check if switch A is in position "0" before
plugging in
- switch on the tool by pushing switch A in desired
position:
1 = 50°C, air flow 250 litres/minute
2 = 400°C, air flow 250 litres/minute
3 = 570°C, air flow 500 litres/minute
- when using it for the first time, some smoke may emit
from the tool; this is normal and will soon cease
- switch off the tool by pushing switch A in position "0"
• General use
- determine the right temperature by testing out on an
inconspicuous part of the workpiece; start with a low
temperature setting
- the temperature drops as the distance between the air
outlet/nozzle and the workpiece increases
- the temperature required depends on the material to
be worked on
• Stationary use 5
- set the tool down on its rear in an upright position
- make sure the surface is clean and dustfree; polluted
air damages the motor
- make sure the air flow is directed away from you
- secure the cord to prevent pulling down the tool
- do not touch the air outlet/nozzle
- make sure nothing drops into the air outlet/nozzle
- carefully hold the tool with one hand while switching it
off with the other hand, and then allow it to cool down
• Use at hard-to-reach places
- remove ring B 2, thus releasing the metal air outlet
over a greater distance
! pay attention to increased risk of fire and burns
• Holding and guiding the tool 6
- hold the tool with one hand
- while working, keep the nozzle at a minimum distance
of 7 cm from the workpiece; accumulated air damages
the tool
- keep ventilation slots E 2 uncovered
• SKIL accessories (not standard included) 7
- glass protection nozzle F (for deflecting air flow)
- flat nozzle G (for broadening air flow)
- reflector nozzle H (for reflecting air flow)
- reduction nozzle J (for concentrating air flow)
NOTES:
All application examples (except removing paint next
to glass) can be performed without accessories;
however, using the appropriate accessory simplifies the
work and significantly improves the quality of the results
• Mounting/removing accessories (not standard
included)
- simply fit the accessory onto air outlet C 2
- remove an accessory by pulling it off to the front after it
has cooled down
! mount an accessory only when the air outlet is
cold, when the switch is in position "0" and when
the plug is disconnected
• Constant heat control (overload protection)
Protects heating element from damage when tool is
overloaded without having to stop it and/or let it cool
down for a period of time
- when the temperature gets too high, the heating
element switches itself off, while the motor continues
to run and produces cold air
- when the temperature has dropped sufficiently (taking
only a few seconds), the heating element will be
switched on automatically
! when the tool is switched off after working at a
high temperature setting, and switched on again
after a short break, it may take a while before the
heating element reaches the desired temperature
APPLICATION ADVICE
• Removing paint/lacquer 8
- use a clean, sharp scraper
- scrape firmly, when the paint softens
- experiment to establish the length of time necessary to
apply the heat for optimal results
- scrape the softened paint immediately, or it will harden
again
- keep a 30° to 40° angle between the tool and the
workpiece
- remove paint and debris immediately from the scraper
to prevent them from ignition
- scrape with the grain of the wood, wherever possible
- do not direct the hot air flow towards the same surface
for too long
- dispose of all paint debris safely
- thoroughly clean the work area after completing the
job
! be careful when removing layers of paint in old
buildings; in the past the building may have been
painted with paint containing lead, which is
highly poisonous
! exposure to even low levels of lead can cause
serious brain and nervous system damage;
young and unborn children are particularly
vulnerable
! have lead-based paint removed by a professional
without using a heatgun
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLE:
★ removing (synthetic) wall covering
• Removing paint/lacquer next to glass 9
- always use glass protection nozzle F when working
next to glass
- remove the paint with a hand scraper
! do not use the tool for removing paint on
metal-framed windows; metal is heat-conducting
which might lead to breaking of the glass
• Removing stickers (use flat nozzle G) 0
- many adhesives become softer when heated, allowing
adhesive bonds to be separated and superfluous
adhesive to be removed
! heat sticker on the upper side
! always take care not to overheat the underlying
surface
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLES:
★ removing linoleum and vinyl carpeting
★ removing carpet tiles made of synthetic fibres
★ removing veneers/applying veneer strips
★ softening/melting tar, tin, bitumen, wax (use flat nozzle
G)
★ waxing (skis, furniture) (use flat nozzle G) !
