Personal Safety
Caution: Do not use the device if you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. A momentary lapse in concentration can result in seri-
ous injuries.
Wear personal protective equipment such as respirators, safety goggles and
hand protection. Make sure you are standing on a non-slip surface and that it
is safe to work.
Prevent the device from being started accidentally. Make sure that the device
is switched off before connecting it to the power supply.
Always wear appropriate clothing. Loose clothing, long hair and jewellery
should be kept at a safe distance from the hot parts of the device.
General information that must be observed:
The hot-air stripper gun generates a supply of hot air up to max. 650 °C. This
high temperature is achieved by air flowing past a red-hot heating element.
When the gun is set to the max. temperature setting the heating element will
generate a bright red heat, however it will not produce an open flame. Never-
theless, there is still a risk of fire. Therefore, you should be particularly careful
when handling flammable and combustible substances! Always keep a fire
extinguisher handy!
Risk of fire when working on buildings!
Never use the device in rooms containing flammable materials, liquids or
gases.
Caution: There is a risk of fire and explosion when working with plastics,
paints, varnishes and other similar materials. Toxic gases may also be pro-
duced, so make sure you work in a well-ventilated area!
Never use the device if it is damp; do not use the device in damp rooms, or
outdoors in the rain.
When the gun is switched on, never aim it at the same spot for too long: risk
of fire!
Make sure the exhaust pipe does not come into contact with any objects
during or immediately after use! Place the gun in such a way that the hot pipe
is unable to cause any damage.
