OPERATION
WARNING:
Use extreme care when stripping paint. The peelings,
residue, and vapors of paint may contain lead, which
is poisonous. Any pre-1977 paint may contain lead and
paint applied to homes prior to 1950 is likely to contain
lead. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact
can result in the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even low
levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous
system damage; young and unborn children are par-
ticularly vulnerable. Before beginning any paint removal
process, you should determine whether the paint you are
removing contains lead. This can be done by your local
health department or by a professional who uses a paint
analyzer to check lead content of the paint to be removed.
LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED BY
A PROFESSIONAL AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED
USING A HEAT GUN.
Persons removing paint should follow these guidelines:
n Move the workpiece outdoors. If this is not possible, keep
the work area well ventilated. Open the windows and put
an exhaust fan in one of them. Be sure the fan is moving
the air from inside to outside.
n Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing,
cooking utensils, and air ducts.
n Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any paint chips
or peelings. Wear protective clothing such as extra work
shirts, overalls, and hats.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless.
Remember that a careless fraction of a second is suf-
ficient to inflict serious injury.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields, a dust respirator mask or dual filter respirator
mask, and protective gloves when operating the heat gun.
Failure to do so could result in possible serious injury.
WARNING:
Do not use any attachments or accessories not recom-
mended by the manufacturer of this tool. The use of
