WARNING: Do not strip metal window frames as the heat may crack the glass.

When striping other window frames, use the glass protection nozzle.

To prevent igniting the surface, do not keep the tool directed at one spot too long.

Avoid collecting paint on the scraper accessory, as it may ignite. If necessary, carefully remove paint debris from the scraper accessory using a knife.

2.Turn the air temperature adjustment knob (D) to high.

3.Turn the tool on by selecting the desired air flow.

4.Direct the hot air onto the paint to be removed.

Best results will be achieved if the heat gun is moved slowly, but CONSTANTLY, from side to side to evenly distribute heat. DO NOT LINGER OR PAUSE IN ONE SPOT.
