Double Insulated Tools
Tools marked with the words “Double Insulated” are equipped with a two pronged
plug. These tools have a special insulation system that complies with applicable
standards of both Underwriter’s Laboratories, Inc. and Canadian Standard
Association. They do not require grounding.
Extension Cords
Double insulated tools, like this one, have two prong cords and can use either a two
or three prong extension cord. As the distance from the supply outlet increases,
heavier gauge extension cords are required. The use of extension cords of inade-
quate size wire causes a serious drop in voltage and loss of power. Protect the cord
from damage. Keep cords away from excessive heat, sharp edges and damp or wet
areas. Repair or replace damaged extension cords before using.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
WARNING!
Unattentive operation involves a serious risk of fire. In certain circumstances the
heat gun is not audible by the operator or user. Always disconnect power supply to
avoid risk of fire. Never leave the heat gun unattended. Some dust created by power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chem-
icals know (to the State of California) to cause cancer, birth defects or to harm the
reproductive organs. Some examples of these chemicals are:
!lead from lead-based paints
!crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry
products, and
!arsenic or chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,
and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-
cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Read this instruction book before using. To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose to rain or moisture. Store indoors. When servicing, use only identical
replacement parts. When using electronic tools, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. The
heat guns operate up to 1050°F with no visual indication of temperature (no flame).
The hot air stream at the outlet of nozzle will burn flesh. Do not turn on heat gun with
hand in front of nozzle. DO NOT USE NEAR combustible LIQUIDS. DO NOT USE
FOR: Heating gas engines, heating car batteries, thawing refrigerator equipment.
Cautions
This hot air gun can produce up to 1050° F of flameless heat at the
nozzle. Do not direct airstream at clothing, hair or other body parts.
Do not use as a hair dryer.
Do not use near flammable liquids or in an explosive environment
(fumes, gases or dust). Remove materials or debris, that may
become ignited, from work area.
Always hold tool by plastic enclosure. The metal nozzle requires
approximately 20 minutes to cool to where it can be touched. Do not
touch nozzle or accessory tips until cool.
Do not store tool until nozzle has cooled to room temperature. Place
tool in a clear area away from combustible materials while cooling.
Do not cut off air flow by placing nozzle too close to workpiece.
Keep intake vents clean and clear of obstructions.
Do not leave tool unattended while running or cooling down.
Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher nearby.
Do not direct airflow directly on to glass.
Shield materials around the heated area to prevent damage or fire.
Use only 120 V AC voltage.
Do not use in wet conditions.
Not to be used by children. This is not a toy and should
be respected.
Do not use in bath or over water.
Safety glasses should be worn when using this tool.
For stripping paint, see detailed instructions in this manual.
It is recommended that leather gloves be worn when using a
heat gun.

UL Warning WARNING!
This tool is capable of producing temperatures up to 1050° F of flameless heat at
the nozzle. ALWAYS:
!Direct the heat away from yourself and others.
!Prevent ignition of combustible materials on or near the workpiece.
!Prevent blockage of intake and nozzle openings.
!Keep fully charged fire extinguisher on hand.
!Allow the nozzle and accessory tips to cool to room temperature before storage. Paint Stripping
WARNING: Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint. The peelings,
residue and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Any pre–1977
paint may contain lead and paint applied to homes prior to 1950 is likely to contain
lead. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in ingestion of
lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous
system damage; young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable.
Before beginning any paint removal process you should determine whether the paint
you are removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health department
or by a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check the lead contract of the
paint to be removed. LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD BE REMOVED BY A PRO-
FESSIONAL AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED USING A HEAT GUN.
Move the work piece outdoors. If this is not possible, keep the work area well
ventilated. Open the windows and put an exhaust fan in one of them. Be sure
the fan is moving the air from inside to outside.
Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing, cooking utensils and
air ducts.
Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any paint chips or peelings. Wear
protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls and hats.
Work in one room at a time. Furnishings should be removed or placed in the
center of the room and covered. Work areas should be sealed off from the
rest of the dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.
Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers
should not be present in the work area until the work is done and all clean up
is complete.
Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual filter (dust and fume) respirator mask
which has been approved by the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH), or
the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable filters are
readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure the mask fits properly.
Beards and facial hair may keep masks from sealing properly. Change filters
often. DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
Use caution when operating the heat gun. Keep the heat gun moving as
excessive heat will generate fumes which can be inhaled by the operator.
Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands, arms and face and
rinse mouth before eating or drinking. Do not smoke or chew gum or tobacco
in the work area.
Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the floors. Use a wet
cloth to clean all walls, sills and any other surface where paint or dust is
clinging. DO NOT SWEEP, DRY DUST OR VACUUM. Use a high phosphate
detergent or trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
At the end of each work session put the paint chips and debris in a double
plastic bag, close it with tape or twist ties and dispose of properly.
Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work area to avoid carry-
ing dust into the rest of the dwelling. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe
shoes off with a wet rag that is then washed with the work clothes. Wash hair
and body thoroughly with soap and water.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING: Hidden areas such as behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit boards and
other panels may contain flammable materials that could be ignited by the heat gun
moving in a back-and-forth motion. Lingering or pausing in one spot could ignite the
panel or the material behind it.
Please Note
This heat tool may emit a vapor during the first few minutes
of operation. This is normal due to residue from the manufac-
turing process. It is burned off after the first few minutes of
operation.
