How to use

Select the appropriate nozzle if required and set the temperature and airflow to suit the material and task. Hold the heat gun at a safe distance and move it steadily across the work area to avoid overheating any single spot. For paint stripping or adhesive softening, start at a lower temperature and increase as needed; for shrink tubing and plastic welding use the recommended temperature range for the material. Always allow heated components to cool before handling and follow safety guidelines for hot air tools.

Recommendations

Use protective gloves and eye protection while operating the heat gun. Work in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling fumes from heated coatings or plastics. Do not point the gun at people or flammable materials and allow the unit to cool before storage. For best results, test settings on a scrap piece of material to determine the appropriate distance, temperature and airflow.
