MAINTENANCE
Your power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and
regularcleaning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start‑up can causeinjury.
Cool Down Period
The nozzle and accessory becomes very hot during use. Turn
heat gun off, disconnect from the power source and let the tool
cool down for at least 30 minutes before moving or storingit.
NOTE: To reduce the cooling time, switch the tool on at the
lowest air temperature setting and let it run for a few minutes
before turning the heat gunoff.
Tool Ring (Fig.A)

WARNING: ALWAYS turn heat gun off, disconnect from
the power source and let the tool cool down for at least 30
minutes before moving or storingit.
For easy storage, the tool can hang from the tool ring
6
. The
heat gun should be storedindoors.
Constant Heat Control (Overload Protection)
When the tool is overloaded, this feature protects the heating
element from damage without stopping the tool and/or
without a cool downperiod.
1. When the temperature gets too hot, the heating element
switches itself off. The motor will continue to run and
produce coldair.
2. When the temperature has cooled sufficiently (taking
only a few seconds) the heating element will switch
onautomatically.
Stationary Use (Fig.A)
This tool can also be used in stationarymode.
1. Fold down the kickstand
3
as shown in FigureA.
2. Set the tool onto a level, stable workbench. Ensure the tool
will not tipover.
3. Secure the power cord to prevent entanglement or pulling
the tool off theworkbench.
4. Turn the tool on by selecting the desired airflow.
Removing Paint

WARNING: Refer to Important Notice under Additional
Safety Instructions for Heat Guns before using the
tool to removepaint.


may crack theglass.
• When striping other window frames, use a glass
protectionnozzle.
• To prevent igniting the surface, do not keep the tool
directed at one spot toolong.
• Avoid collecting paint on the scraper accessory, as it
may ignite. If necessary, carefully remove paint debris
from the scraper accessory using aknife.

I: 240 liter/min (50°C–400°C)
250 liter/min (50°C–400°C) (D26414)
A low air flow to heat up the workpieceslowly.
II: 450 liter/min (50°C–600°C)
500 liter/min (50°C–600°C) (D26414)
A high air flow to heat up the workpiecequickly.
