OPERATION

1. Connect power cord to main AC outlet. (Do not use DC).

2. Place appropriate baffle over nozzle of gun before turning power

perature at nozzle of approximately 800°F in

10 seconds. SWITCH TO COLD AIR 30-45

SECONDS BEFORE TURNING OFF. This will

increase the life of the heating element.

damage to your heating element. CAUTION: Heat Gun should never be placed in a position where the

stream of hot air is directed onto table surfaces or flammable materials.
