HAZARD: GENERAL
May cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
• Disconnect the heat gun from the power supply when not in use. Store indoors in a dry place and
out of the reach of children.
• Keep your work area well lighted and clean.
• Do not overreach, especially when working on ladders. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Be certain any ladders being used are sturdy, stable, on a firm surface and erected at safe
working angles.
• Avoid power lines.
• Keep moveable items secured and steady while scraping.
• Always use protective eyewear when working.
• Stay alert and use common sense when operating any tool.
OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY
When using this tool, always wear following protective
equipment:
•
Safety glasses
•
Work gloves
•
Dusk mask, that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
USING THE HEAT GUN
1. Plug the unit into a standard wall outlet.
2. Turn on the unit. The motor-driven fan noise will indicate that the unit is running. The heating coil
will light up slowly to dark red.
3. When the work is done, turn the unit off and set it down with the nozzle pointing up and the stand
in the support position.
4. Note: Keep the nozzle pointed up after shutdown, either for a short break or for storage. lf the
nozzle is pointed down, the residual heat rises into the motor space and shortens the life of the
unit. Avoid laying the unit on the side after shutdown. The heat will remain in the unit and cooling
will take longer. Store the unit only after the nozzle is cool to touch. Unplug the unit before storing
to prevent accidental start up.
EMBOSSING
When using the hat tool to activate embossing powder, remove excess powder by dusting the powder
off with a clean, dry paint brush. Hold the nozzle end of the hat tool approximately 77mm from the
work surface. To prevent the paper from becoming too hot, move the nozzle end around in a circular
fashion until the embossing powder is raised and shiny. When you have completed one area, switch
the hat tool off and return the tool to its built-in stand while preparing another area.
