Care when using the heat gun in removing paint:
• Do not use this product to remove lead paint. The residues and vapors from this type of paint can be
toxic. Once deposited on surfaces, contact of hand to mouth can result in lead ingestion. Exposure
to lead, even at low levels, can cause irreversible damage to the brain and nervous system. Children
and pregnant women are particularly vulnerable.
• When removing paint, make sure that the work area is open. Use a dust mask.
• Do not burn the paint. Use the scraper and keep the nozzle 25 mm away from the painted surface.
When working in the vertical direction, downwards, be careful so that paint does not fall on the
heat gun.
• Do not allow the paint to stick on the nozzle or scraper, since it can ignite after some time.
• Eliminate all traces of paint safely and ensure that the work area is completely clean after finishing
the work.
