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

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.
