Stripping Paint
•
Mount an appropriate accessory
•
Set a high air temperature
•
Switch the tool on
•
Direct the hot air onto the paint to be removed
•
When the paint softens, scrape the paint away using a hand scraper
•
Do not strip metal window frames, as the heat may be conducted onto the glass and crack it.
•
When stripping other window frames, use a glass protection nozzle.
•
Do not keep the tool directed at one spot too long to prevent igniting the surface.
•
Avoid collecting paint on the scraper accessory (if included), as it may ignite. If necessary, carefully remove paint debris from
the scraper accessory using a knife.
•
Do not use this tool to remove paint containing lead. The peelings, residue and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is
poisonous. Any pre-1960 building may have been painted in the past with paint containing lead and covered with additional
layers of paint.
•
Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead.
•
Exposure even to low levels of lead can cause irreversible damage to the brain and nervous system. Young and unborn
children are particularly vulnerable.
•
When removing paint., ensue that the work area is enclosed. Preferably wear a dust mask.
•
Do not burn the paint. Use the scraper and keep the nozzle at leaf 25 mm away from the painted surface. When working in a
vertical direction, work downwards to prevent paint from falling into the tool and burning.
•
Dispose of all paint debris safely and ensure that the work area is thoroughly cleaned after completing the work.

This tool can also be used in stationary mode.
•
Unfold the Hang Hook and place the tool onto the workbench.
•
Secure the cable to prevent pulling the tool off the workbench.
•
Carefully switch the tool on.
•
Make sure that the nozzle always points away from you and any bystanders.
•
Make sure not to drop anything into the nozzle.

To reduce the cooling time, set the on/off switch to position
[I]
and let it run for a few minutes.
