USE
• On/off switch with 2 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:
I = 50°C + air flow 250-500 litres/minute
II = 50°C ... 650°C, air flow 250-500 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"
• Temperature setting 5
- set desired target temperature in steps of 10°C by
pressing buttons B briefly
- pressing buttons B constantly increases/decreases
the target temperature continuously until the buttons
are released or the minimum/maximum temperature is
reached
- after the target temperature is set, display D shows the
actual rising/falling temperature until the desired
temperature is reached (in position "II" only)
- the target temperature will be stored in the memory of
the tool, so that each time after switching on the tool
heats up to the last selected target temperature
• Air flow setting 6
- set desired air flow in steps of 50 l/min by pressing
buttons C briefly
- display D shows the actual air flow setting in a bar
graph
• 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 7
- 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 E 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 8
- hold the tool with one hand
- keep ventilation slots F 2 uncovered
• Standard accessories 2
- glass protection nozzle G (for deflecting air flow)
- flat nozzle H (for broadening air flow)
- reflector nozzle J (for reflecting air flow)
- reduction nozzle K (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
- this tool can also be used in combination with
BOSCH- and other commonly available accessories
for heat guns
• Mounting/removing accessories
- simply fit the accessory onto air outlet L 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
• Hanging ring M 9
- for easy storage of the tool
! allow the tool to cool down for at least 30 minutes
before storage
• 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 0
- 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
