1 = 50°C, air ow 250 litres/minute

2 = 400°C, air ow 250 litres/minute

3 = 570°C, air ow 500 litres/minute

- when using it for the rst time, some smoke may emit

from the tool; this is normal and will soon cease

- switch o the tool by pushing switch A in position “0”

• General use

- determine the right temperature by testing out on an

inconspicuous part of the workpiece; start with a low

temperature setting

- the temperature drops as the distance between the air

outlet/nozzle and the workpiece increases

- the temperature required depends on the material to

be worked on

• Stationary use 5

- set the tool down on its rear in an upright position

- make sure the surface is clean and dustfree; polluted

air damages the motor

- make sure the air ow is directed away from you

- secure the cord to prevent pulling down the tool

- do not touch the air outlet/nozzle

- make sure nothing drops into the air outlet/nozzle

- carefully hold the tool with one hand while switching it

o with the other hand, and then allow it to cool down

• Use at hard-to-reach places

- remove ring B 2, thus releasing the metal air outlet

over a greater distance

! pay attention to increased risk of fire and burns

• Holding and guiding the tool 6

- hold the tool with one hand

- keep ventilation slots E 2 uncovered

• SKIL accessories (not standard included) 7

- glass protection nozzle F (for deecting air ow)

- at nozzle G (for broadening air ow)

- reector nozzle H (for reecting air ow)

- reduction nozzle J (for concentrating air ow)

All application examples (except removing paint next

to glass) can be performed without accessories;

however, using the appropriate accessory simplies the

work and signicantly improves the quality of the results

• Mounting/removing accessories (not standard included)

- simply t the accessory onto air outlet C 2

- remove an accessory by pulling it o to the front after it

has cooled down

! mount an accessory only when the air outlet is

cold, when the switch is in position “0” and when

the plug is disconnected

• Constant heat control (overload protection)

Protects heating element from damage when tool is

overloaded without having to stop it and/or let it cool

down for a period of time

- when the temperature gets too high, the heating

element switches itself o, while the motor continues

to run and produces cold air

- when the temperature has dropped suciently (taking

only a few seconds), the heating element will be

switched on automatically

APPLICATION ADVICE

• Removing paint/lacquer 8

- use a clean, sharp scraper

- scrape rmly, when the paint softens

- experiment to establish the length of time necessary to

apply the heat for optimal results

- scrape the softened paint immediately, or it will harden

again

- keep a 30° to 40° angle between the tool and the

workpiece

- remove paint and debris immediately from the scraper

to prevent them from ignition

- scrape with the grain of the wood, wherever possible

- do not direct the hot air ow towards the same surface

for too long

- dispose of all paint debris safely

- thoroughly clean the work area after completing the job

! be careful when removing layers of paint in old

buildings; in the past the building may have been

painted with paint containing lead, which is

highly poisonous

! exposure to even low levels of lead can cause

serious brain and nervous system damage; young

and unborn children are particularly vulnerable

! have lead-based paint removed by a professional

without using a heatgun

OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLE:

★ removing (synthetic) wall covering

• Removing paint/lacquer next to glass 9

- always use glass protection nozzle F when working

next to glass

- remove the paint with a hand scraper

! do not use the tool for removing paint on

metal-framed windows; metal is heat-conducting

which might lead to breaking of the glass

• Removing stickers (use at nozzle G) 0

- many adhesives become softer when heated, allowing

adhesive bonds to be separated and superuous

adhesive to be removed

! heat sticker on the upper side

! always take care not to overheat the underlying

surface

OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLES:

★ removing linoleum and vinyl carpeting

★ removing carpet tiles made of synthetic bres

★ removing veneers/applying veneer strips

★ softening/melting tar, tin, bitumen, wax (use at nozzle

★ waxing (skis, furniture) (use at nozzle G) !

★ removing resin

★ loosening rusty/too tightly fastened metal screws, nuts

and bolts

★ removing candle wax (do not overheat the

underlying surface)

★ repairing broken candles/restoring bent candles to

their original shape

• Shrink tting @

- use reector nozzle H or reduction nozzle J

- select a shrink-t tube with a diameter matching that of

the workpiece

- heat the shrink-t tube evenly

OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLE:

★ shrink-wrapping

• Soldering water pipes #

This tool is most suitable for working with soft solders

(melting point below 400°)
