WARNING:
This heat gun generates extremely high temperatures.
Hidden areas such as behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit
boards, and other panels may contain flammable materi-
als that could be ignited by the heat gun when working
in these locations. Keep tool in constant motion; do not
stop or dwell in one spot as the panel or material behind
it may ignite.
The ignition of these materials may not be
readily apparent and could result in property damage and
injury to persons.
SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION
WARNING:
Do not direct hot tip or nozzle toward clothing, hands
or other body parts. Intense heat from tip or nozzle can
cause serious burns or cause clothing to ignite.

STARTING/STOPPING THE HEAT GUN
See Figure 2, page 12.
The heat gun is started by sliding the on/off switch up to
the ON (
l) position. To stop, slide the switch down to the
OFF (
O ) position.
ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE
See Figure 3, page 12.
The temperature of the heat gun is controlled by the tem-
perature adjustment dial located at the top of the tool. Turn
the dial to the right to raise the temperature and to the left
to lower the temperature. The LED lights located in front of
the dial indicate the temperature setting selected.
NOTE: The proper amount of heat necessary for a specific
application depends on the distance between the nozzle and
workpiece and the length of time heat is applied. Experiment
with scrap materials and start with the lowest temperature
range. Be cautious when working until the proper combina-
tion of heat, distance and time has been determined.
OPERATION
HANDS-FREE OPERATION
See Figure 4, page 12.
The heat gun has a flat bottom surface that acts as a sup-
port stand to allow hands-free operation and cooling. Rest
the tool on a flat surface and make sure the cord placement
does not cause the heat gun to tip over.
NOTE: Do not leave heat gun unattended while it is running
or cooling down. Always set on a flat, level surface with
nozzle tip directed upwards, away from supporting surface.
REMOVING THE NOSE CONE
See Figure 5, page 12.
The nose cone helps to limit exposure to the extremely hot
nozzle when the heat gun is in use. However, the nose cone
can be removed to allow use of the heat gun in tight spaces.
NOTE: Always reinstall the nose cone when finished.
To remove:
Unplug the heat gun.
With nozzle pointed away from you, rotate the nose cone
slightly clockwise and remove.
WARNING:
The nozzle of the heat gun is extremely hot during use.
It will stay hot for several minutes, depending on room
temperature. Allow heat gun to cool before attempting to
install or remove the nose cone to avoid possible serious
personal injury.
To reinstall:
Unplug the heat gun.
Slide nose cone over the heat gun nozzle.
Seat the nose cone against the body of the heat gun by
aligning tabs on heat gun body to notches on base of
nose cone.
Rotate the nose cone counterclockwise to secure.
USING THE HANGER
See Figure 6, page 12.
The heat gun has a hanger recessed into the support stand.
To use, simply slide your finger into the opening underneath
the hanger and flip the hanger out and away from the sup-
port stand.
