Use:
• Ensure the extension handle is firmly fixed onto the device and that the
device is turned off.
• Install the weeding nozzle (8) to the device.
• Connecting to power supply and insert the plug into the power socket
This product is designed with a cord retainer that prevents the power
cord from being pulled loose while using. If using the device as a weed
burner you must make sure the power cord is retained by the cord
retainer in the way shown in Fig. 9 before plug into the power socket.
• Check to ensure the nozzle is not blocked before turning the device on.
• Set the temperature to setting II.
• Allow the device about 45 seconds to heat up.
• To kill weeds, hold the weeding nozzle over the weeds for about 5 seconds.
During these 5 seconds the cell structure of the weed is destroyed.
As a result, the weed dies within a few days.
• It is not necessary to completely burn the weeds, 5 seconds is more
than sufficient.
• For an efficient treatment the weeding nozzle should be held around 0 to 5
cm above the weeds
• The effects are not visible immediately but will take a while before they can
be seen. It is more of a long-term effect.
Keep all parts of the body away from the metal heating head. Do
not touch it before it is cooled down.
Carry the appliance by the handle when the metal heating head
is cooling down.
Hold the appliance by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the metal
heating head may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Keep cable away from metal heating head.
Use appropriate personnel protection equipment (PPE) while weed burner
in operation, e.g. safety boots.
Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous. If an extension cord is used, it
shall be suitable for outdoor use, and the connection has to be kept dry and
off the ground. It is recommended that this is accomplished by means of a
cord reel which keeps the socket at least 60 mm above the ground.
