How to use

Set the heat gun on a stable surface and select the appropriate temperature for the material you intend to work on. Hold the tool by the ergonomic handle and direct the air outlet at the target area, keeping a safe distance to avoid overheating the surface. Move the gun slowly and evenly across the workpiece until the desired effect is achieved. Allow heated materials to cool or set as required before handling. After use, switch off the device and place it on a heat-resistant surface until the nozzle has cooled.

Recommendations

Use protective gloves and eye protection when operating the heat gun. Test temperature settings on a scrap piece before working on the final surface to prevent damage. Maintain adequate ventilation when working with paints, adhesives or other materials that may emit fumes. Store the tool in a dry place and avoid contact of the hot nozzle with flammable materials.
