4. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
5. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
6.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allow you to become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of a second.
7. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn into air
vents.
8.
Do not use on a ladder or unstable support.
Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
Power Tool Use and Care
1. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
2. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
3. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
4. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
5.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
6. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.

Heat Gun
General Safety Warnings for Heat Gun
m
WARNING!
This heat gun generates extremely high
temperatures. Hidden areas such as behind walls, ceilings,
floors, soffit boards and other panels may contain flammable
materials that could be ignited by the heat gun when working
in these locations. The ignition of these materials may not
be readily apparent and could result in property damage and
injury to persons. When working in these locations, keep
the heat gun moving in a back-and-forth motion. Lingering
or pausing in one spot could ignite the panel or the material
behind it.
m
WARNING!
Extreme care should be taken when
stripping paint. The peelings, residue and vapors of paint
may contain lead, which is poisonous. Once deposited on
surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion
of lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause
irreversible brain and nervous system damage; young and
unborn children are particularly vulnerable. Before beginning
any paint removal process you should determine whether the
paint you are removing contains lead. This can be done by
your local health department or by a professional who uses
a paint analyzer to check the lead content of the paint to be
removed. LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED
BY A PROFESSIONAL AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED BY
USING A HEAT GUN.
m
WARNING!
Do not direct hot nozzle or heat outlet
toward clothing, hands, or other body parts. Intense heat from
tip or nozzle can cause serious burns or cause clothing to
ignite.
1. The heat outlet of the heat gun becomes very hot during
operation and should not be touched until the tool has
cooled. Always hold the tool by the insulated gripping
surface to reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
2. Heat guns produce very high temperatures and must be
used with caution to prevent combustible material from
igniting. Keep tool in constant motion; do not stop or
dwell in one spot. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
fire or serious personal injury.
3. Excessive heat can generate fumes which may be
dangerous when inhaled. Wear a dust respirator mask
or dual filter respirator mask when using the heat gun.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
4.
Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher close at hand for
emergency use. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
fire or serious injury.
