OPERATION
INSTALLING SCRAPER NOZZLE
See Figure 4.
The scraper nozzle reduces the airflow from a circular area
to a wide, narrow line. This nozzle can be used for removing
paint, and for softening and forming acrylic sheets, vinyl floor
tiles, linoleum, and laminate surfaces.
NOTE: Install or remove attachment only when both the
heat gun nozzle and the scraper nozzle are cool.
REMOVING THE NOSE CONE
See Figure 5.
The nose cone helps to limit exposure to the extremely
hot nozzle when the heat gun is in use. However, the nose
cone can be removed to allow use of the heat gun in tight
spaces.
NOTE: Always reinstall the nose cone when finished.
To remove:
n Unplug the heat gun.
n With nozzle pointed away from you, rotate the nose cone
slightly clockwise and remove.
WARNING:
The nozzle of the heat gun is extremely hot during use.
It will stay hot for several minutes, depending on room
temperature. Allow heat gun to cool before attempting to
install or remove the nose cone to avoid possible serious
personal injury.
To reinstall:
n Unplug the heat gun.
n Slide nose cone over the heat gun nozzle.
n Seat the nose cone against the body of the heat gun by
aligning tabs on heat gun body to notches on base of
nose cone.
n Rotate the nose cone counterclockwise to secure.
USING THE HANGER
See Figure 6.
The heat gun has a hanger recessed into the support stand.
To use, simply slide your finger into the opening underneath
the hanger and flip the hanger out and away from the sup-
port stand.
