OPERATING MODES
Warm air mode
Move switch (Fig. A pos.2) to position " 1 ".
In this mode only the air flow can be controlled.
The working temperature remains constant at
50°C.
In this mode the temperature cannot be controlled.
The "warm air" mode is designed to lower the
temperature of very hot objects or to dry coats
of paint.
Hot air mode
Move switch (Fig. A pos.2) to position " 2 ".
In this mode the air flow and the working tempe-
rature can be controlled.
Controlling the air flow
The speed of the air flow can be changed by
pressing buttons (Fig. A pos.8 and 9) shown on
the display (Fig. A pos.10) .
-Minimum air speed (about 250 l/min)
-Maximum air speed (about 500 l/min)
To increase the speed press button Fig. A pos.8 .
To reduce the speed press button Fig. A pos.9 .
Caution! Ensure that the ventilation slots (Fig. A
pos.3) are never obstructed.
Temperature control
The working temperature can be controlled only
in "hot air" mode.
When the temperature level is changed, the heat
gun needs a short time to heat up or cool down
the air flow before reaching the required level.
To increase the temperature press button Fig.
A pos.6 .
To lower the temperature press button Fig. A
pos.7 .
Caution! The temperature can be controlled at
intervals of 10°C.
OPERATIONAL TIPS
The heat gun should be kept at an angle (about
45°) to the work surface to avoid the reuptake
of expelled hot air. The intake of hot air could
damage the gun.
The distance between the gun nozzle and the
object being treated must never be less than 5 cm.
Before turning off the heat gun, let it run for at least
10 seconds with switch (Fig. A pos.2) in position
"1" and with the air flow at maximum speed to
cool down the internal components.
This precaution will extend the gun's life.
To cool down the heat gun or to free your hands,
place the gun in a vertical position on a flat surface
(Detail Fig. A pos.16) .
Caution! Always turn off the gun.
NOZZLES
The nozzles are used to modify the hot air flow and
are applied to the nozzle of the heat gun; before
assembly or replacement, ensure that the nozzle
is at room temperature.
Reflector : for sealing metal pipes.
Fishtail : to remove paint from large surfaces such
as doors, stairs, skirting boards and wallpaper.
Reducer : to concentrate the flow of heat onto a
specific area.
Glass protection : suitable for heating door and
window frames while protecting the glass from
the flow of heat, preventing thermal shock. The
deflector plate must not be used as a scraper.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT! Always unplug the tool from
the mains socket and leave it to cool down
completely before proceeding with any sort of
inspection or maintenance jobs.
- Take good care of your tool and clean it regularly.
In this way its efficiency will be ensured and its
lifespan extended.
- Clean the tool using a soft cloth only.
- Do not wet or spray water over the tool.
- Do not use detergents or solvents to clean the
tool as you could irreparably damage it. Chemi-
cal agents can easily damage the plastic parts.
- Remove any processing residue from the tool.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Check that the plug is correctly plugged in to
the mains socket and that there is voltage in the
system. Put the switch into positions 1 and 2.
If the problem persists following these checks,
then the problem could be in the machine itself.
Have an authorised service centre check it out.
