HEAT SETTINGS
The Heat Gun has two settings:
1.Low heat - for use where the
workpiece or surroundings must
not be allowed to get too hot.
Setting~400°C.
2.High heat - for faster heat up
time of the workpiece where you
can also operate the gun at a
greater distance.
Setting~590°C.
OPERATION
Before starting the job it is
advisable to test the workpiece for
the ideal temperature to use. The
table below gives an indication of
the likely heat settings required but
always start with the low heat
setting.
The distance between the nozzle
and the workpiece will vary
according to the material being
worked on but this should always
be at least 50mm (2”) or more on
either heat setting.
All applications, with the exception
of removing paint from the window
frames, can be performed without
using a nozzle, however for best
results nozzles are recommended.

Nozzles
The kit is supplied with 4 different
shaped nozzles, which can be used
as follows.
Concentrator Nozzle
This nozzle
directs a
concentrated
heat flow to the
workpiece. It is
ideal for use
when removing
paint in awkward
corners, crevices, mouldings,
beading, architrave’s or whenever
precise paint removal is required.
Deflector Nozzle
This nozzle
directs a long
narrow heat
pattern to the
workpiece, and
is ideal for
removing paint
or varnish from
large flat surfaces such as skirting
boards, doors, stairs etc. It should
be used in conjunction with a flat
scraper. Vinyl tiles can be removed
by softening the tile.
Glass Protection Nozzle
This nozzle
deflects the
heat away from
glass or other
fragile areas
and back onto
the workpiece.
