MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Always unplug the heat gun before performing any type
of maintenance. Following this rule can reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
CLEANING THE HEAT GUN
The heat gun and attachments should be kept clean, dry,
and free of oil or grease. Only a mild soap and damp cloth
should be used to clean the heat gun. Do not allow liquid
to enter the tool.
The high temperatures of the heat gun will cause the nozzle
to turn dark over time. This is normal and will not affect its
performance or life.
Ventilation openings must be kept clean and free of foreign
matter. The most effective method of cleaning the vents is
with compressed air. Do not attempt to clean by inserting
pointed objects through the openings.
POWER SUPPLY CORD REPLACEMENT
If replacement of the power supply cord is necessary, this
has to be done by an authorized service center in order to
avoid a safety hazard.
STORAGE
Always allow the heat gun and nozzle attachments to cool
to room temperature before storing. Store the heat gun out
of reach of children and untrained individuals.
WARNING:
The nozzle of the heat gun will stay hot for several minutes
after use. Always allow heat gun to cool before storage.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury or property damage.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts can create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating lubricants, etc., come in
contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage,
weaken or destroy plastic which can result in serious
personal injury.
Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spackling
compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and
possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and
grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commu-
tators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommended using this
tool for extended work on these types of materials. However,
if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely
important to clean the tool using compressed air.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrica-
tion is required.
