Heat Gun Model 2000D

USING THE HEAT GUN

CAUTION

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 the switch to the ON position. The motor driven fan noise will indicate that the unit is running. The heating coil will light up slowly in dark red.

3. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired setting. Refer to the chart found earlier in this manual.

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.

CAUTION

If the blower motor in the heat gun does not turn on when the switch is set to ON, turn the switch OFF immediately. The heating element will burn out if it is not cooled by the blower.

Note: Always set the heat gun upright after it is turned off, either for a short break or for storage. Avoid laying the unit on the side after shutdown. The heat will remain in the unit and cooling will take longer. Store the unit only after the nozzle is cool. Unplug the unit before storing to prevent accidental startup.

Always protect glass when working near windows.

WARNING

Do not touch nozzle when working. It becomes extremely hot and will cause severe burns. Wear gloves to protect hands from hot scrapings.

STRIPPING PAINT

The heat gun heats up the surface and causes the paint to soften, at which time it can be scraped off easily without damaging the surface. Some paints may soften even though they do not blister; some may become rubbery, and some may require higher heat.

When working with several layers of paint, it speeds up the scraping process to heat the surface thoroughly, all the way to the wood. Then all the layers can be scraped at one time.

A soft wire brush may be the best tool to use for very intricate surfaces. Mineral paints and finishes, such as cement paint and porcelain, do not soften with heat, so using a heating tool will not work for paint removal.
