Anleitung Zusammenfassung
• Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint, the peelings, residue and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead. Exposures to even low levels of lead can caused irreversible brain and nervous system damage; young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable. Do not smoke, eat or drink in a 9 ENGLISHENGLISH work area that could or may be contaminated by lead. Lead based paints should only be removed by a professional and should not be removed using a heat gun. • When removing paints you should ensure that your work area is enclosed. It is advisable to wear a dust mask. • Do not burn the paint. Keep the nozzle at least 25mm (1”) from the surface as this keeps the temperature below the re quired 450°C. If you are scraping from a vertical position then you should scrape downwards to prevent the paint from falling back into the heat gun and burning. Dispose of all paint debris safely and ensure that the work area is thoroughly cleaned after completing the job. • Do not use in a damp atmosphere or where flammable gases may be present or use near combustible materials. Spaces behind boards, ceilings and floors and wall cavities in timber frame constructed houses can contain flam mable materials. Check before using the heat gun. • Allow the tool to cool fully before storing. • Ensure adequate ventilation when using heat guns as toxic fumes may be produced. • Do not use as a hairdryer! The air temperature is far higher than a hairdryer. • Do not obstruct either the air intake or nozzle outlet as this may cause excessive heat build up resulting in damage to the tool. • Do not direct the hot air blast at other people. • Do not touch the metal nozzle as it becomes very hot during use and remains hot for up to 30 minutes after use. Do not look down the nozzle while the unit is working because of the high temperatures being produced. • Do not allow paint to adhere to the nozzle or scraper as it could ignite after a time. • Do not operate your heat gun whilst it is hanging by the hanging hook. • A fire may arise if the appliance is not used with care. • Do not place the nozzle against anything while using or immediately after use. • Do not poke anything down the nozzle as it could give you an electric shock. Features (fig. A) 1. Switch 2. Heat control knob 3. Ventilation slots 4. Nozzle Handling Your Heat Gun Do not place your hand over the ventilation slots (3) or block these vents in any way. This restricts the airflow through the element and causes over heating. Setting the temperature (fig. B) • To increase the temperature setting, turn the heat control knob (2) anti-clockwise. • To reduce the temperature setting, turn the heat control knob clockwise. Operating Your Heat Gun (fig. C) • To switch your heat gun on at the low temperature setting, press the switch (1) to depress to position “I”. • To switch the tool on at the high temperature setting, set the switch (1) to position “II”. • To switch the tool off, set the on/off switch (1) to position “0”. Note: Allow the element to heat up for a few seconds before use. Initially, some smoke may emit from your heat gun. This is normal and will soon cease. Cooling Down In use, the nozzle (4) of your heat gun becomes extremely hot. Great care is necessary when cooling your heat gun after use. Hands Free Use (fig. D) This tool can also be used in stationary mode. • Place the tool onto a firm and stable surface as shown. • Always point your heat gun away from you. • Secure the cable to prevent pulling your heat gun off the stand. Do not touch the nozzle (4) and ensure that nothing is dropped into the nozzle. Carefully switch off your heat gun and then allow it to cool. Paint Stripping Your heat gun is designed to soften paint and lacquer enabling it to be removed using a good quality hand scraper. Proceed as follows: Direct the hot air onto the area to be removed. When the paint softens, scrape firmly. Experiment to establish the length of time necessary to apply the heat to obtain optimum results. Scrape the softened paint immediately or it will harden again. Your heat gun is not suitable for stripping metal-framed windows. This is because the heat from the heat gun is conducted through the metal and can crack the glass. Scrape with the grain of the wood wherever possible. Do not linger on one spot for too long as the surface may char or ignite Electrical safety This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. Warning: If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorized Black & Decker Service Centre or an equally qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. If the supply cord is replaced by an equally qualified person, but not authorized by Black & Decker, the warranty will lose effect. 10 ENGLISHENGLISH Accessories The performance of...
