portable heat is the need."
The proper amount of heat for
each application is dependent
upon the adjustment of the air
intake shutter, the distance of
the nozzle opening from the
work surface and length of
time that heat is applied to the
work surface.
Before performing an applica-
tion, we recommend that you
experiment with a piece of
scrap material. Use care in
approaching the work until
you find the proper combina-
tion of shutter adjustment, dis-
tance from the work surface
and heat application time.
