OPERATION
Before starting work it is recommended that you heat a test piece to ensure
you have the correct heat setting. In addition you should always take steps to
protect sensitive or delicate areas where the effect of heat could cause
damage (i.e. glass and plastics). Do not apply heat to the same place for a
long time.
After the work has been completed, switch the gun OFF, disconnect from the
mains supply and allow to cool in a safe place.
Take care not to drop the gun as this could seriously damage the heating
element.
REMOVING PAINT AND DISSOLVING ADHESIVES
The gun can be used in conjuction with a shavehook to remove paint.
1. With the switch in the ‘0’ (OFF) position plug the hot air gun into the mains
supply.
2. Set the switch to either position I
or II according to how much heat
is required. (see Specification on
page 10).
• Ensure the nozzle is pointing
away from you.
3. Bring the nozzle of the hot air gun
to the work piece approximately 3
cm from the surface.
• The exact distance between
the nozzle and the work piece will be dependent on the material
being worked on.
• Paint will rapidly become soft and blister, at which point it can be
removed with a suitable scraper. Do not allow paint to burn as this
will make the removal process more difficult.
• Some adhesives soften when heated and the joint can then be
separated, taking care to avoid damage to jointed parts.
4. Clean your shavehook quickly if paint/glue becomes stuck to it.
• Profiled parts may be cleaned with a suitable wire brush once paint
is softened.
• Normally only one pass is required to remove both thick and thin
layers of paint.
