Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
 Save all safety warnings and all instructions for future
reference.

This hot air gun is not intended for
use by children and persons with
physical, sensory or mental limita-
tions or a lack of experience or
knowledge.
This hot air gun can be used by chil-
dren aged 8 or older and by persons
who have physical, sensory or men-
tal limitations or a lack of experi-
ence or knowledge if a person
responsible for their safety super-
vises them or has instructed them in
the safe operation of the hot air gun
and they understand the associated
dangers. Otherwise, there is a danger
of operating errors and injuries.
 Supervise children. This will ensure
that children do not play with the hot
air gun.
 Children must not be allowed to
clean and perform maintenance on
the hot air gun without supervision.
 Be careful when working with the power tool. The pow-
er tool produces intense heat which can lead to increased
danger of fire and explosion.
 Exercise special care when working close to inflamma-
ble materials. The hot air jet or the hot nozzle can ignite
dust or gases.
 Do not operate or work with the power tool in areas
where there is danger of explosion.
 Never direct the hot air jet at the same position for
longer periods. Easily inflammable gases can develop
e.g., when working plastic, paint, varnish or similar mate-
rials.
 Be aware that heat can be conducted to hidden covered
materials and can ignite them.

 After using, place the power tool down in a secure man-
ner and allow it to cool down completely before pack-
ing it away. The hot nozzle can cause damage.
 Do not leave the switched-on power tool unattended.
 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children. Do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
 Do not expose the power tool to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or
entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
 Always wear safety goggles. Safety goggles will reduce
the risk of injuries.
 Disconnect the plug from the socket outlet before mak-
ing any adjustments, changing accessories, or placing
the power tool aside. This safety measure prevents unin-
tentional starting of the power tool.
 Check the power tool, cord and plug each time before
use. Do not use the power tool if damage is determined.
Do not open the power tool yourself and have it ser-
viced only by a qualified repair person using only origi-
nal spare parts. Damaged power tools, cords and plugs in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
Provide for good ventilation of your
working place. Gas and vapour developing
during working are often harmful to one's
health.
 Wear safety gloves and do not touch the hot nozzle.
Danger of burning.
 Never direct the hot air jet against persons or animals.
 Do not use the power tool as a hairdryer. The hot air be-
ing blown out is significantly hotter than that from a hair-
dryer.
 When operating the power tool in damp environments
is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD).
The use of a residual current device (RCD) reduces the risk
of an electric shock.
 Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do not
touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug when
the cable is damaged while working. Damaged cables in-
crease the risk of an electric shock.
 Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a
BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse
(ASTA approved to BS 1362).
If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should
be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug
should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
