PRIOR
TO
OPERATION
1.
Power
source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the
power requirements speci
fi
ed on the product nameplate.
2.
Power
switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the power
switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start
operating immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
3.
Extension
cord
When the work area is removed from the power source,
use an extension cord of su
ffi
cient thickness and rated
capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as
practicable.
BASIC
FUNCTIONS
1.
Switch
Operations
and
Temperature
Adjustments
(Fig.
1,
Fig.
2)
Slide the knob upward to activate the switch and enable
continual operations even when your
fi
nger is removed.
Slide the knob downward as far as it will go to set the
switch at the
[
0
]
position and turn it o
ff
.
The position to which the switch is slid will alternate
between modes.
Switch
[1]
position:
Fixes the wind temperature at 50°C and enables the
wind power to be adjusted.
Switch
[2]
position:
Enables the wind temperature to be adjusted
between 50°C and 650°C, and enables the wind
power to be adjusted.
2.
Adjusting
the
Temperature
(Fig.
1,
Fig.
2,
Fig.
3)
The temperature can be adjusted between 50°C and
650°C when the switch is at the
[
2
]
position.
The temperature will rise by 10°C each time the
Increase Temperature button is pressed (to a maximum
of 650°C.)
Press the button continuously to increase the
temperature in increments of 10°C.
The temperature will decrease by 10°C each time the
Decrease Temperature button is pressed (to a minimum
of 50°C.)
The set temperature will be indicated on the display
when the Increase Temperature and Decrease
Temperature buttons are pressed, but this will return to
the hot wind temperature display after a few seconds.
The temperature will be
fi
xed at 50°C when the switch is
at the
[
1
]
position, and adjustment is not possible.
This is used to quickly cool material that is heat-
warping and to cool the nozzle when it reaches high
temperatures after using the tool.
3.
Wind
Power
Adjustment
(Fig.
1,
Fig.
3)
The wind power can be adjusted in
fi
ve stages between
1 and 5. (0.25m
3
to 0.5m
3
)
Press
the
[
+
]
button to increase wind power, and the
[
–
]
button to decrease wind power.
The tool can be used with it stood pointing upward.
(

)
CAUTION
Make sure the tool is placed on a stable surface so that
it won’t topple over when used pointing upward.
4.
Attaching
the
Nozzle
(Fig.
5)
CAUTION
The nozzle is extremely hot immediately after use, so
do not touch it.
NOTE
Make sure you do not drop the nozzle.
Replace the nozzle for a type that is suited to the job in hand.
Insert the nozzle supplied
fi
rmly into the hot wind release
nozzle until it can go no further.

WARNING
○
Do not use the tool in the vicinity of volatile substances
(thinner, gasoline, etc.)
○
Do not bring the hot wind release nozzle in close
contact with your hands or face during use.
The nozzle is extremely hot immediately after use, so
do not touch it.
Set the temperature in consideration of the article to be
heated.
Also, pay attention to the surrounding material that will be
heated at the same time.
First of all, apply the hot wind from a distance while checking
that there are no changes in the article being heated, and
then move it closer until it reaches an appropriate distance.
Heating
in
fl
ammable
substances
(paper, wood, plastic, etc.)
Set the switch to the
[
1
]
position and apply the heat with
the nozzle at least 10cm away from the article being
heated.
Gently move the tip of the nozzle up, down, left and right
to apply the heat.
Applying heat constantly to one location may result in
malformation or the outbreak of smoke.
Heating
non-
fl
ammable
substances
(metal, stone, concrete, etc.)
Set the switch to the
[
1
]
position, and if there are no
problems, move it to the
[
2
]
position.
Apply the heat with the nozzle at least 5cm away from
the article being heated.
Holding the nozzle too close may result in the tool
overheating, leading to malfunctions.
