warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all safety warnings and all instructions for future reference.
 This hot air gun is not intended for use by children and persons with physical, sensory or mental
limitations or a lack of experience or knowledge. This hot air gun can be used by children aged 8 or
older and by persons who have physical, sensory or mental limitations or a lack of experience or
knowledge if a person responsible for their safety supervises them or has instructed them in the
safe operation of the hot air gun and they understand the associated dangers. Otherwise, there is
a danger of operating errors and injuries.
 Supervise children. This will ensure that children do not play with the hot air gun.
 Children must not be allowed to clean and perform maintenance on the hot air gun without
supervision.
 Be careful when working with the power tool. The power tool produces intense heat which can
lead to increased danger of fire and explosion.
 Exercise special care when working close to inflammable materials. The hot air jet or the hot
nozzle can ignite dust or gases.
 Do not operate or work with the power tool in areas where there is danger of explosion.
 Never direct the hot air jet at the same position for longer periods. Easily inflammable gases can
develop e.g., when working plastic, paint, varnish or similar materials.
 Be aware that heat can be conducted to hidden covered materials and can ignite them.
 After using, place the power tool down in a secure manner and allow it to cool down completely
before packing it away. The hot nozzle can cause damage.
 Do not leave the switched‐on power tool unattended.
 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
 Do not expose the power tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
 Do not place your hand over the air vents or block the vents during operation. Do not obstruct
either the air nozzle outlet, as this may cause excessive heat build up resulting in damage to the
tool.
 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
 Always wear safety goggles. Safety goggles will reduce the risk of injuries.
 Disconnect the plug from the socket outlet before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or placing the power tool aside. This safety measure prevents unintentional starting of the power
tool.
 Check the power tool, cord and plug each time before use. Do not use the power tool if damage is
determined. Do not open the power tool yourself and have it serviced only by a qualified repair
person using only original spare parts. Damaged power tools, cords and plugs increase the risk of
electric shock.
 Provide for good ventilation of your working place. Gas and vapour developing during working are
often harmful to one's health.
 Wear safety gloves and do not touch the hot nozzle. Danger of burning.
 Never direct the hot air jet against persons or animals.
