Master Appliance ECOHEAT EC-100 Instruction Manual

Instruction Manual
Please read, understand and keep this manual for future reference.
DESCRIPTION AND INTRODUCTION
The Ecoheat is an economical, lightweight, multi-use heat gun. Two heat settings — 500° and 1000° F — make it well suited to a wide variety of automo-
tive and commercial applications. Because it weighs 1 lb., it's easy to use for extended periods of time, which cuts down on operator fatigue. When not
in use, the heat gun can be set down in an upright position on its very stable built-in stand.
