Be careful when using the tool in places where there are
combustible materials.
Do not apply to the same place for a long time.
Do not use in presence of an explosive atmosphere.
Be aware that heat may be conducted to combustible
materials which are out of sight.
Place on its stand after use and follow to cool before
storage.
Do not leave the tool unattended when in use.
4. Do not use the tool or touch the power plug with wet
hands.
Failure to observe this may result in electric shocks.
5. Always check the work area prior to use, and do not use
the tool if safety cannot be guaranteed.
Failure to observe this may result in in
fl
ammable
articles concealed in or behind invisible areas (cases,
ceilings,
fl

6. Do not stand underneath when using the tool in elevated
locations.
Also, do not catch the power cord on anything, or allow
it to be pulled.
Failure to observe this may result in accidents.
7. Do not point the hot wind directly at people or animals.
Do not look into the nozzle. Do not use it as a hair dryer
under any circumstances.
Failure to observe this may result in accidents or injury.
8. There are cases in which highly toxic gas will be emitted
if used on plastic, lacquer or similar materials.
Always ensure that the work area is fully ventilated, and
wear a dust-protection mask.
9. Apply heat gently while moving the Heat Gun up, down,
left and right.
Aiming it constantly at a single location may result in the
outbreak of smoke or
fi
re.
10. Check the tool for damage, cracks or malformation in
the event of it being accidently dropped or subject to
impact.
Damage, cracks and malformation may result in injury.
11. Cease operations immediately in the event of the
tool not operating properly or if abnormal noises or
vibrations are noticed, and contact a Hitachi Authorized
Service Center to request inspections and repairs.
Continued use may result in injury.
12. Do not get away from the unit while it is switched on.
Failure to observe this may result in accidents.
13. If during use, electricity is interrupted, (e.g. the power
plug came out, the breaker fell, a blackout occurred…)
and the heat gun fan has stopped, please put the switch
in OFF position. If the switch is left in ON position when
power resumes, the restart of the fan may cause
fi
re.
CAUTION
1. Parts of the nozzle supplied are sharp, so use gloves
when removing them from the case and when attaching

Aiming it constantly at a single location may result in the
outbreak of smoke or
fi

otherwise block the nozzle.
Failure to observe this may result in the Heat Gun
overheating, leading to malfunctions.
5. Do not switch the tool on and o

repeatedly. Also, do not
use the tool with the power cord folded or twisted.
Failure to observe this may result in malfunctions.
6. Do not point the heat-wind release nozzle downwards
