Cooling Down; Protecting The Environment - Stanley STEL670 Manual De Instrucciones

f Do not use as a hairdryer! The air temperature is far
higher than a hairdryer.
f Do not obstruct either the air intake or nozzle outlet
as this may cause excessive heat build up resulting in
damage to the tool.
f Do not direct the hot air blast at other people.
f Do not touch the metal nozzle as it becomes very
hot during use and remains hot for up to 30 minutes
after use. Do not look down the nozzle while the unit
is working because of the high temperatures
being produced.
f Do not allow paint to adhere to the nozzle or
scraper as it could ignite after a time.
f Do not operate your heat gun whilst it is hanging by
the hanging hook.
f A fire may arise if the appliance is not used with
care.
f Do not place the nozzle against anything while
using or immediately after use.
f Do not poke anything down the nozzle as it could
give you an electric shock.
Handling Your Heat Gun
Do not place your hand over the ventilation slots (3) or
block these vents in any way. This restricts the airflow
through the element and causes over heating.
Setting the temperature (Fig. B)
f To increase the temperature setting, turn the heat
control knob (2) anti-clockwise.
f To reduce the temperature setting, turn the heat
control knob clockwise.
Operating Your Heat Gun (Fig. C)
f To switch your heat gun on at the low temperature
setting, press the switch (1) to depress to position "I".
f To switch the tool on at the high temperature setting,
set the switch (1) to position "II".
f To switch the tool off, set the on/off switch (1) to
position "0".
Note: Allow the element to heat up for a few seconds
before use. Initially, some smoke may emit from your heat
gun. This is normal and will soon cease.

Cooling Down

In use, the nozzle (4) of your heat gun becomes extremely
hot. Great care is necessary when cooling your heat gun
after use.
Hands Free Use (Fig. D)
This tool can also be used in stationary mode.
f Place the tool onto a firm and stable surface as
shown.
f Always point your heat gun away from you.
f Secure the cable to prevent pulling your heat gun off
the stand.
Do not touch the nozzle (4) and ensure that nothing is
dropped into the nozzle. Carefully switch off your heat gun
and then allow it to cool
Paint Stripping
Your heat gun is designed to soften paint and lacquer
enabling it to be removed using a good quality hand
scraper.
Proceed as follows: Direct the hot air onto the area
to be removed. When the paint softens, scrape firmly.
Experiment to establish the length of time necessary
to apply the heat to obtain optimum results. Scrape the
softened paint immediately or it will harden again.
Your heat gun is not suitable for stripping metal-framed
windows. This is because the heat from the heat gun is
conducted through the metal and can crack the glass.
Scrape with the grain of the wood wherever possible. Do
not linger on one spot for too long as the surface may char
or ignite.
