SHRINK TUBING
Attach the optional HG020 concentrator or
H
G040 reflector nozzle. Select the diameter of
t
he heat-shrink tubing according to the
workpiece, for example, a cable lug (Fig. 7).
Use stand to free both hands. Slide tubing
over area to be insulated. Place in air stream
and move with a side to side motion until
tubing has shrunk. Remove from air stream.
Heat the heat-shrinkable tubing evenly.
DEFROSTING WATER PIPES
Water lines often do not differ in appearance
from gas lines. Gas lines are not to be heated
under any circumstances.
Attach the optional HG040 reflector nozzle.
Direct hot air stream at end of frozen part and
wave back and forth until part is defrosted or
thawed. Heat the frozen zone always from the
outside to the middle.
When warming plastic pipes or connections
between pipe pieces, be especially carefully to
p
revent damage (Fig. 8).
SOFT SOLDERING
For point soldering, attach the optional HG020
concentrator nozzle. For soldering of pipes,
attach optional the reflector nozzle.
If solder without flux, apply soldering grease or
paste to the location to be soldered. Warm the
location to be soldered for 50–120 seconds on
the material. Apply the solder. Heat the
workpiece and allow it to melt the solder. Do
not heat the solder directly. After the soldered
location has cooled, remove the flux (Fig. 9).
