4. GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow such may result
in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. Save all safety warnings and
instructions for future reference.
EN

4.1 WORK AREA
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.
DO NOT operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
4.2 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the socket-outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
DO NOT use on materials of or containing asbestos.
DO NOT expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
DO NOT abuse the power cord. Never use the power cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep power cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable
for outdoor use.
It is recommended a RCD (Residual Current Device) rated at 30mA trip
current is tted into the mains socket-outlet rst for added protection
against electric shock.
4.3 PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, follow directions stated in the instruction manual and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
DO NOT use a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol or medication.
 Use safety equipment. It is recommended to wear eye protection.
Danger of burns - we recommend wearing a pair of heavy grade non-
pvc type work gloves.
Avoid accidental starting by ensuring the switch is in the off “0” position
before plugging in.
DO NOT overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
DO NOT wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts.

EN

If heat gun is damaged upon receipt, DO NOT USE. Return to point of
purchase.
4.4 HEAT GUN USE AND CARE
DO NOT use the heat gun if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous AND
SHOULD NOT BE USED.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or sticking of moving
parts, breakage of parts and other conditions that may affect operation
of the power tool. If damaged, DO NOT USE.
Use the heat gun and accessories in accordance with these instructions
and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
4.5 SERVICE
Have your heat gun serviced only by Wagner or its appointed agents to
ensure the safety of such is maintained to avoid a safety hazard.
5. ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR HEAT GUNS
DO NOT place your hand over the air vents or block the vents in any way.
The nozzle and accessories of this tool become extremely hot during
use. Let these parts cool down for 30 minutes before touching.
Always switch the tool off before putting it down.
DO NOT leave the tool unattended while it is switched on.
 A re may arise if the appliance is not used with care.
 Heat may be conducted to combustible or readily-ammable materials
that are out of sight. DO NOT use in a damp atmosphere where ammable
gases may be present or near combustible materials such as paper,
cardboard or fabric (ignite easily when exposed to high temperatures).
Allow the tool to cool fully before storing.
 Ensure adequate ventilation as toxic fumes may be produced.
DO NOT use as a hairdryer.
DO NOT obstruct either the air intake or nozzle outlet as this may cause
excessive heat build-up resulting in damage to the tool.
DO NOT direct the hot air blast at other people or animals.
6
EN

DO NOT place the nozzle against anything whilst using or immediately
after use.
DO NOT poke anything down the nozzle as it could give you an electric
shock.
DO NOT look down the nozzle while the unit is working because of
the high temperature being produced.
DO NOT allow paint to adhere to the nozzle or scraper as it could ignite
after some time.
DO NOT change/rotate the nozzle while the unit is turned on.
DO NOT allow children to operate or play with the heat gun.
DO NOT allow heat to be directed onto the power cord.
DO NOT apply to the same place for a long time.
6. REMOVING PAINT
DO NOT use this tool to remove paint containing lead. The peelings,
residue and vapours of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Any
pre-1960 building may have been painted with paint containing lead and
covered with additional layers of paint.
If paint containing lead is removed, hand-to-mouth contact can result in
ingestion of lead.
Exposure even to low levels of lead can cause irreversible damage to
the brain and nervous system. Young and unborn children are
particularly vulnerable.
When removing paint wear a dust mask.
DO NOT burn the paint. Use the scraper and keep the nozzle at least 25
mm away from the painted surface. When working in a vertical direction
work downwards to prevent paint from falling into the tool and burning.
Dispose of all paint debris safely and ensure that the work area is
thoroughly cleaned after completing the work.

Always observe the safety instructions and Health and Safety Regulations.
Use only one hand to hold the tool, do not place your other hand over the air vents.
 Prior to operation, t the correct accessory to the heat gun nozzle ①for the application.
8.1 SWITCHING ON AND OFF
To switch the heat gun on, set control switch ③to position 2. Some smoke may be emitted
after switching on; this does not indicate a problem.
To switch the heat gun off, adjust control switch ③to position 1 - “cool down mode”. Let
the heat gun cool down for 30 minutes, then set control switch ③to position 0 before
moving or storing it.
8.2 TEMPERATURE SETTING
Turn control switch ③to position 2. The heat gun will start to blow
warm air.
 Temperature can be adjusted in increments of 50˚C to
650˚C by pressing the temperature adjusting buttons 4b . The
LCD digital display ⑤will display the temperature in °C.
 Air speed can be adjusted by pressing the air ow adjusting
buttons 4a . The LCD digital display will display the air speed with
bar icons.
8.3 STRIPPING PAINT
Fit the appropriate accessory to the nozzle ①for area to be
worked.
Switch the tool on to position 2 using the control switch ③.
 Set temperature to appropriate heat setting using the temperature and air ow adjusting
buttons 4b and 4a respectively.
Direct the hot air onto the paint to be removed.
When the paint softens, scrape the paint away using the appropriate scraper in section 7.1.
Do not strip metal window frames, as the heat may be conducted onto the
glass and crack it. When stripping other window frames, use the glass
protection nozzle.
To prevent igniting the surface do not keep the tool directed at one spot
too long.
Avoid collecting paint on the scraper accessory as it may ignite. If
necessary, carefully remove paint debris from the scraper accessory
using a knife.
10
Make sure that the tool is switched off and the nozzle has cooled down.
 Dropped nozzles can set objects on re. Nozzles must be rmly tted and
secure on the unit.
Touching a hot nozzle can lead to serious burns. Before attaching or
replacing a nozzle allow the unit to cool down completely.
 A hot nozzle can set a surface on re. Place down hot nozzles only on
re-proof surfaces.
An incorrect or defective nozzle can lead to heat accumulation and
damage the unit. Use only original nozzles as shown in the table.
