OPERATOR'S MANUAL:

  120V TWO SETTING HEAT GUN

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

  WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses with 

side shields.

  WARNING

Be aware that material behind or in between exposed surfaces 

may ignite.

  WARNING

To reduce the risk of burns and/or fire, keep the tool moving at 

all times over the material you are heating.

This product is a dual temperature control heat gun and uses a 3 position rocker type 

switch. Moved to the center position, marked "O", the heat gun is turned OFF. Depress 

the lower switch portion completely, marked "I", for the "Low" temperature range. 

Depress the upper switch portion completely, marked "II", for the "High" temperature 

range.
1)  Plug the heat gun into a properly rated outlet.
2)  If using an accessory nozzle tip, install the desired accessory nozzle tip by sliding it 

on to the nose of the heat gun.

3)  Depress completely the upper or lower portion of the rocker switch to obtain the 

desired heat range. It is suggested that you start in the lower heat range when 

beginning an operation and then move to the higher temperature range if needed.

4)  To turn the heat gun off after use, move the switch to the center position, "O".
5)  Allow the heat gun nozzle to cool by resting the gun on the rear air intake housing 

and the handle, with the gun's nozzle pointing upward.

The correct amount of heat used for each application depends on the selected heat 

range, material being worked on, and the distance of the nozzle from the work surface 

and length of time that heat is applied to the work surface. We recommend that you 

experiment with a piece of scrap material before performing an operation. Carefully 

approach the work until you determine the proper combination of heat range, distance 

from the work surface and duration of heat application.
Always maintain heat gun movement over the work surface using a gentle back and 

forth movement while applying heat unless you find that a concentrated application of 

heat best delivers the desired results for a particular operation.
