Safety/Operation
Avoid the danger of death
by electric shock:
gases or materials.
Heating of plastics, paints, varnishes etc.
can lead to the creation of gases that are
hazardous to health. Make sure you always
have adequate ventilation.
Let the device cool down completely before
you put it into storage. Always place your
heat gun down on its end, with the nozzle
pointing upwards (see Fig. D).
J
J
You should check the condition of the
device, mains lead and mains plug at
regular intervals.
J
Devices with damaged parts must not be used.
The device should never be opened. Damaged
devices, mains leads or mains plugs may cause
death by electric shock. Repair or replacement
work should only be carried out by the service
centre or a qualified electrician.
Handling the device correctly:
Do not touch the mains lead if it becomes
damaged or cut through while you are using
the device. Pull the plug out of the mains socket
immediately and have the device repaired by a
suitably qualified person or at your service centre.
Do not operate the device if it is damp
and do not use it in a damp environment.
If you use the device outdoors, always connect it
through a residual current device with a maximum
trip current of 30 mA.
J
J
J
If danger arises, pull the mains plug immediately
out of the mains socket.
Never use the device for a purpose for which
it was not intended.
When taking a break from your work, before
carrying out any tasks on the device itself (e.g.
changing the nozzle) or when you are not using
the device, always pull the mains plug out of the
mains socket.
J
J
If using an extension lead always use one that is
approved for outdoor use.
Always work with the mains lead leading away
from the rear of the device.
J
J
Do not direct the device at the same spot for too
long a period.
Do not hold the nozzle outlet too close to the
workpiece or the surface on which you are
working. If the airflow is constricted it can lead
to overheating of the device.
J
To avoid the danger of injury,
burning and dangers to your health:
J
J
Always keep the device clean, dry and free of
oil or grease.
