ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
• Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher close at hand for emergency use.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of fire or serious injury.
• Do not leave the heat gun unattended while running or cooling down. Always set
tool on a flat, level surface so nozzle tip is directed upwards, away from
supporting surface, while running or cooling down. Following this rule will reduce
the risk of fire or serious injury.
• Know your power tool. Read operator's manual carefully. Learn its applications
and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistant
lenses; they are NOT safety glasses. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
serious personal injury.
• Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods of
operation. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal injury.
• Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have repaired at your nearest
Authorized Service Centre. Constantly stay aware of cord location. Following
this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
• Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that
is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly
and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service centre. Following this rule will
reduce the risk of shock, fire, or serious injury.
• Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not
recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others
who may use this tool. If you lend someone this tool, provide them these
instructions also.
WARNING
Fumes created by heating some materials may contain chemicals known
to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well-ventilated area
and work with approved safety equipment, such as those masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
