•
Never ignite liquid or gaseous fuels (e.g. benzines, spirits, etc.) with the hot-gas burner, risk of explosion!
• Depending on the activity for which you use the hot-gas burner, suitable protective equipment and observation
of additional safety precautions are necessary.
•
Many materials give off biohazardous or even toxic vapours when heated. If necessary, use a suitable venting
system or ventilate sufficiently.
•
Never try to cool the hot-gas burner with water or any other liquids; doing so will damage it.

Operation
a) Filling butane gas
Keep the hot-gas burner away from fire and other heat sources while filling it. Only fill the hot-gas
burner after it has cooled down completely!
Fill your hot-gas burner only with commercially available butane gas (lighter gas) and only in a
well-ventilated environment. Avoid open flames (explosion hazard!).
Do not ignite the hot-gas burner immediately after filling. Butane gas is heavier than air and will
remain on the ground for some time.
Never press the ignite button while filling the burner.
• Remove the base
(9)
.
• Hold the hot-gas burner by the grip
(6)
so the refill valve
(8)
points vertically upwards. Insert the needle on the
butane gas can into the refill valve’s opening
(8)
to start filling the cylinder.
•
The cylinder holds 12 ml of butane gas. Stop refilling as soon as the gas overflows.
•
Wipe away any spillage gas with a clean cloth. Wait approximately 2-3 minutes before igniting the flame to
allow the gas to stabilize.
•
The gas tank’s fill level can be read from the view window
(7)
. Bright light makes it easier to read.
b) Application
• Remove the base.
• Slide the lock
(5)
down until it snaps into place to release the child safety lock.
• Press the push button
(4)
to ignite the flame. It might be necessary to press the push button repeatedly before
ignition takes place.
•
Hold the push button down and slide the fixing switch
(2)
upwards until it stops to switch the hot-gas burner
to continuous operation. Slide the fixing switch back to end continuous operation.
•
Use the flame regulator
(3)
to adjust the flame size (+ = larger/- = smaller).
•
Release the push button. The lock returns to its original position. The flame extinguishes.
• Place the hot-gas burner in its base
(9)
and let it cool down sufficiently.
Care and cleaning
• Never use aggressive detergents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, as these may damage the
casing or cause the product to malfunction.
• Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
• Remove any residual gas before storing the hot-gas burner.

Safety instructions
Read the operating instructions carefully and especially observe the safety information. If
you do not follow the safety instructions and information on proper handling in this manual,
we will assume no liability for any resulting personal injury or damage to property. Such
cases will invalidate the warranty/guarantee.
a) General information
• The product is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dangerous playing material for
children.
•
If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, stop using it and prevent unauthorized use. Safe
operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:
- is visibly damaged,
- is no longer working properly,
- has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
- has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.
• Always handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height may damage the product.
•
The housing of the hot-gas burner must not be opened or damaged. It must not be held in or thrown into a
fire or naked flames! Risk of explosion!
•
If the product should become damaged or defective, dispose of it correctly. If gas is still contained and is
leaking out, the product may have to be kept in an appropriate outside location for a while, so that the gas can
escape. Ensure there is adequate ventilation; keep a safe distance from all naked flames or ignition sources
(risk of fire and explosion!). Keep a safe distance from flammable objects, risk of fire!
•
Never expose the hot-gas burner to mechanical stress. The gas tank could start to leak (danger of fire and
explosion!).
•
The hot-gas burner must not be operated, filled or stored in areas where explosive, easily flammable
materials, combustible gases, vapours, dust, or inflammable liquids (solvents, alcohol, petrol, etc.) are stored
or could be stored. Risk of explosion or fire!
• Protect the product from dirt and damp. This may damage the product or cause corrosion.
•
Only move the product when it has completely cooled down; there is a risk of burns or of fire! The same
applies to the storage of the product.
•
The hot-gas burner may be transported or stored only in an upright position (handle grip/base down).
•
For use in commercial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the employer’s liability insurance
company are to be observed.
•
In schools, educational facilities, hobby and DIY workshops, the product must be operated under the
supervision of qualified personnel.
• Consult a technician if you are not sure how to use or connect the product.
•
Maintenance, modifications and repairs are to be performed exclusively by an expert or at a qualified shop.
•
If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support
service or other technical personnel.
b) Filling
•
If the hot-gas burner is damaged, it must not be refilled! Risk of fire and explosion!
•
Observe the safety and operating instructions of the gas cartridge manufacturer, when refilling the product.
•
Stop the filling process immediately if gas escapes. A gas-air mixture could arise which could explode. Make
sure that the room has been well ventilated before you ignite hot-gas burners or other sources of ignition.
•
After filling, the hot-gas burner contains highly flammable gas that is under pressure. Therefore, it must be
kept away from sources of heat, high temperatures (> +40 °C) or direct sunlight; otherwise, there is a risk
of explosion!
•
Do not remove or open the filling valves to allow gas to escape. Risk of fire and explosion!
c) Operation
•
Only hold the hot-gas burner by the grip. Always hold it so the flame nozzle points away from you and the
handle grip faces down.
• When igniting and using the hot-gas burner, keep it away from your body and clothing.
•
Never reach into the open flame! Never touch the hot metal parts of the hot-gas burner! This will cause
serious burns!
• Never leave the hot-gas burner unattended while it is in use. Fire hazard!
•
Never point the flame directly at people or animals!
•
Note that depending on the ambient lighting, the flame may be only poorly visible or not visible at all. Even a
small flame emits very high heat. Materials can catch fire and there is a risk of burns.
• Place the hot-gas burner during work breaks or for it to cool off on the stand. Then place the hot-gas burner on
a stable, level surface; in so doing, make sure that it cannot tip over or fall down, fire danger!
