Intended use of the product

The IRT 1 / IRT 2 PrepCure, infrared dryer, can be used
either on stand with timer or handheld for the following
applications:
– heating of old putty prior to removal
– heating of old paint prior to scraping
– fast-drying of putty, filler and paint
– heating of strips prior to removal
– heating of glued joints
– hardening of paint drips

Site

If the dryer is used for drying of solvent-based materials,
explosion prevention has to be guaranteed by providing
sufficient ventilation. The solvent concentration in the air
must always be below 25% of the lower explosion limit.

Operating instructions

Insert the plug in an grounded electrical outlet. Switch
the circuit breaker in the handle. Set the timer (optional)
to desired time. The lamp will illuminate and full output
will be reached within a few seconds. To turn off the
equipment, switch the circuit breaker in the handle once
again.
By radiating only the needed areas and not heating any
air, a lower energy consumption is achieved.
Since the reflector of IRT 1 is elliptical, distance acts
as both the temperature and surface area regulator. In
most cases it is suitable to start at a distance of 30 cm
from the surface to be heated. Move the IRT 1 sidewards
to maintain an even temperature.
The IRT 2 is equipped with 2 FreeForm reflectors. A
more even surface temperature is obtained by distribut-
ing the energy evenly. Optimum distance is 40-60 cm.
Warning! If a shorter distance to the object being
heated is used, the temperature of the object rapidly
increases to a very high level.
If for any reason an IR lamp should be defect, the equip-
ment must immediately be disconnected from the
electrical outlet.

Hazards

Electrical equipment
The equipment operates under with dangerous electrical
voltage.
If maintenance on the equipment is necessary:
– Remove the plug from the wall socket.
– Contact an electrician. Only an qualified electrician
may work with the equipment.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or electrically qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Warning! Intensive heat radiation!
Heating body parts (hands. face etc.) is strictly prohibit-
ed. Never point the heater towards flammable material.
Not to be used without supervision.
The focal point of the IRT 1 is 16 mm in front of the
edge of the reflector. If the object comes within or close
to this focal point, the object becomes extremely hot,
and risk of fire could arise.
Do not store, prepare or use solvent-containing materi-
als within a 5 m/16 feet radius of the dryer. Flammable
materials should not be placed close to a drying device
in use.
The dryer must not be exposed to paint fog, sanding dust
or solvents, due to fire and explosion risk. Furthermore,
the lifetime of the dryer will otherwise be reduced. Allow
for sufficient cooling time of the dryer.
Warning!
Ensure that the supply cable is placed appropriately, so it
cannot be damaged by heat radiation.

7. Instructions to the owner

The owner of the infrared lamp has to draw up a list of
instructions on how to use the lamp, in clear language
that the user can understand, and taking into account
the manual and the prevailing conditions at the work
place. These instructions must be available, and kept in a
place known and accessible to the user.
Everyone using the infrared heater must follow the
instructions for use.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (in-
cluding children) with reduced physical, sensory or men-
tal capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
