Using the Heat Gun
Many variables affect heating applications, such as the material being heated, ambient
temperature, the distance from the gun to the substrate and the heating technique. For
this reason, Wagner has provided temperature guidelines for certain applications. Always
start the heat gun at the lowest temperature in the range then raise the temperature until
the optimum temperature is achieved. Always keep the heat gun in motion and at least 2"
from the substrate when applying heat.

Always read the safety information included in this manual before using the
heat gun.
1. Plug the unit into a standard wall outlet.
2. Turn on the heat gun by pressing the POWeR
switch on the touch pad (A). When the gun is
turned on, it is automatically set in the LOW
temperature range (B) at 850ºF (C) as shown.
Note: Smoke may appear during the initial start
up due to the burning of manufacturing
oils. The smoke should disappear in less
than a minute.
3. If you wish to continue working within the low temperature ranges, simply press the
arrows on the touch pad until your desired temperature setting is indicated by a light.
4. If you wish to operate within the high temperature ranges, press the select button
once. The high temperature range indicator light will turn on. You can now press
the arrows on the touch pad until you reach your desired temperature.
IMPORTaNT: If the blower motor in the heat gun does not turn on when the
POWER button is activated, turn the switch OFF immediately. The heating element
will burn out if it is not cooled by the blower.
5. During rest periods or when you are finished with your project, press the select
button until the cool indicator light turns on (press once if working in high
temperature settings, twice if working in low temperature settings).
6. Set the gun down in an upright position. The heat gun will shut itself off after a
certain cool-down temperature is reached.
