Do not misuse the cord
• Do not carry the tool by the cord, and do not use the cord to pull the plug out of the socket.
• Protect the cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
• Do not wind the cord around the tool.
• Use only permitted and correspondingly marked extension cords.
• Take care of your tool. Follow the maintenance rules and the instructions for nozzle change.
• Check the plug and cord regularly; if they are damaged have them replaced by a recognized service center.
• Check the extension cords regularly and have damaged ones replaced by a electric specialist.
Inspection after damage
• Before further use of the tool, slightly damaged parts should be carefully checked to ensure that can fulfill their function cor-
rectly and in accordance with requirements. Damaged tools must be repaired by an authorized service center. Never use a
tool if its switch will not switch on and off.
• Nozzles must be fitted firmly and safely to the tool. Check: no hot air must flow to the tool itself - the tool would be damaged.
• Keep the handles free of oil and grease.
Storage of hot-air tools
• Hot-air tools which are not in use should be stored in a dry enclosed place out of the reach of children.
