WARNING!
Heat guns should be held at an angle of approximately 45º from the
work and never keep in one place for more than a few seconds.
The Heat Gun has many applications such as paint stripping, heat
shrinking tubing, bending plastic pipes, drying materials, welding
plastics, breaking down glues and adhesives and defrosting pipes
and so on.
(Detailed list is mentioned in the 'intended use' section, any
application other than these are not recommended)
The operation is quite simple, you ON the device and select a
suitable position for the suitable temperature and air flow.
According to the applications, the provided four nozzles (Hook,
Deflector, Glass protection and Concentrator) can be used.
(Detailed explanation for each nozzle is given in the 'product overview'
For removing paint, turn ON the tool and hold the nozzle about
25mm (2.5 cm) from the surface to be stripped. Give the unit
about 15-20 seconds running time to reach its full heat potential.
The paint being heated will usually begin to blister when it
reaches the proper temperature for stripping. When it reaches
this point begin scraping with smooth, even strokes. Move the
unit slightly ahead of the scraper to assure that the paint being
stripped is softened. Best results will be achieved if the gun is
moved slowly, constantly, side to side to evenly distribute heat.
