The Varitemp
®
Heat Gun is a
heavy-duty, Industrial-quality, gen-
eral-purpose heat gun. High tem-
perature Industrial jobs are done
faster with this heat gun, because
our MASTER models have higher
power and air flow ratings.
Your Varitemp
®
Heat Gun is
equipped with an electronic step-
less temperature control dial which
regulates the current going through
the heating element. This allows
outlet temperatures to be set from
ambient to a maximum of 1000°F.
Power ratings go up to 1740 watts
(120 volts) and 1610 watts (230
volts).
Heat Guns are a source of
extremely high temperature
flameless heat (up to 1000°F/
540°C). As with other products
which generate extremely high
temperatures, regardless of your
specific application, extreme care
and caution should be observed
when using this product.
Therefore, we recommend that
you pay particular attention to the
safety instructions which we
have provided for your protec-
tion.

WARNING:
THIS PRODUCT IS A
SOURCE OF VERY HIGH
TEMPERATURE FLAMELESS HEAT.
AS WITH ANY ELECTRICAL TOOL,
WHEN USING HEAT TOOLS,
ALWAYS FOLLOW SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS TO REDUCE THE
RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK
OR PERSONAL INJURY.
1) Read and understand this
instruction manual before using
this product.
Save this manual
for future reference.
2)
WARNING:
With a heat gun, as
with all other heat tools, keep a
fire extinguisher handy and
observe all sensible fire precau-
tions.
We do not recommend using
this heat gun on hollow surfaces
such as outdoor siding, walls,
soffits, panels and partitions, etc.
These areas often contain flam-
mable materials such as dust,
wood chips, insulation, rodent
nests and other debris which
could accidentally ignite.
Your heat gun is best used for
stripping paint from solid wood-
work with ins and outs such as
solid interior trim, mouldings,
turnings, doors, balusters and
porch trim, etc.
When stripping paint, always
keep the heat gun moving in a
continuous back and forth
motion. Stopping or pausing too
long in one spot could ignite the
surface you are working on or
the area behind it. See our Paint
Stripping Instructions for more
information.
3) Do not breathe or swallow lead
based paint in any form. Many
old homes and other buildings
contain lead based paint. Dust,
scrapings, residues and vapors
of lead based paint are
extremely poisonous. Prevent
possible lead poisoning when
stripping this type of paint by
using adequate ventilation (such
as a window fan in the exhaust
mode), and keeping a clean
work area. When dust or vapors
are present, use a respirator
designed to filter lead. Move
work outside when possible.
Failure to follow adequate safety
precautions when working with
lead based paint could result in
lead poisoning. See our Paint
Stripping Instructions for more
information.
4)
WARNING:
to reduce the risk of
fire or electric shock, do not
expose heat guns to rain or
moisture. Store indoors. Connect
to grounded outlet only.
5) Do not use plug adaptors or
remove the ground prong from
the plug. This tool is equipped
with a 3-prong plug and a 3-wire
grounding system. Connect to
properly grounded outlets only.
6) Use heat gun only on ade-
quately rated circuits to avoid
overheating of elec trical sys-
tems.
7) Varitemp
®
heat guns can pro-
duce up to1000°F (540°C) of
flameless heat out of the nozzle.
Do not direct this hot air stream
at your clothing, hands or other
body parts. Do not use as a hair
dryer.
8) Do not touch nozzle opening or
nozzle shield until cool. When in
“hot” mode, extreme heat is
generated at those areas. Always
hold tool by the handle or use
permanently attached stand.
9) Run on “cold” before turning off.
The nozzle and shield require
approximately 3 minutes to
become cool to the touch.
10) Do not touch work surface with
nozzle. Keep nozzle face at
least 1" away.
11) Keep a clean work area. Messy
or cluttered work areas invite
accidents or injury.
12) Keep away from children or
persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities,
