A fire may result if the appliance is not used with care, 
therefore:

 

be careful when using the appliance 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 that are out of sight;

 

place the appliance on its stand after use and allow 
it to cool down before storage;

 

do not leave the appliance unattended when it is 
switched on.

 

Check the area where the heat gun is to be used.  
Behind ceilings, floors and false ceilings may contain 
highly flammable material. Always check these before 
using the heat gun.

 

Keep the work area clean and uncluttered.

 

Keep the work area well lit.

 

Keep children and visitors away from the work area, 
heat gun and any extension cables.

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, please wear 
proper shoes to avoid contact with earthed surfaces.

 

Never carry the heat gun by its power cable or pull on 
the cord to disconnect it.

 

Use only suitable extension cables.

 

Inspect the heat gun cable regularly and if damaged, 
have it repaired by authorized service centre.

 

When the heat gun is used outdoors, use only 
extension cables that are suitable for exterior use.

 

When working on small or irregular shaped objects, 
clamp the object in a vice or clip.

 

Ensure the tool switch is at off position before plugging 
in.

 

Disconnect the heat gun when it is not in use. Ensure 
that the heat gun cannot start accidentally. If the 
heat gun stops while it is in use, disconnect it from 
the power supply and have it serviced by authorised 
service centre.

 WARNING

Always concentrate on the job and use common sense 
when working with this or any other tools. Do not use 
this tool when you are tired or taking medication that 
may make you drowsy.

NOTE:

 Keep the nozzle at least 10 cm away from the 

working surface. Heat guns have a safety cut-off which 
will stop the heat gun if you are working too close to the 

surface being stripped. If the cut-off operates, the heat 
gun must be allowed to cool for about 30 minutes before 
it can be used again.

 

Never use the heat gun in combination with solvents.

 

After use, remove any paint or varnish residue on the 
nozzle and scrapers. This could catch fire.

 

Always work in a well ventilated area. Flakes and 
residues of lead-based paints are highly toxic.

 

EHG2002LRG temperature indicator and intermittent 
flashing: the temperature indicator gives the 
temperature as reference only. The heat gun has 
maximum temperature protection function; when it 
reaches maximum temperature (about 650°C), the 6 
LED may flash intermittently, this is normal and it does 
not mean there is a problem.

 WARNING

This appliance is not intended for use by young children 
or in

fi

 rm persons unless they have been adequately 

supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they 
can use the appliance safely. Young children should 
be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the 
appliance.
