★ removing resin
★ loosening rusty/too tightly fastened metal screws, nuts
and bolts
★ removing candle wax (do not overheat the
underlying surface)
★ repairing broken candles/restoring bent candles to
their original shape
• Shrink fitting @
- use reflector nozzle H or reduction nozzle J
- select a shrink-fit tube with a diameter matching that of
the workpiece
- heat the shrink-fit tube evenly
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLE:
★ shrink-wrapping
• Soldering water pipes #
This tool is most suitable for working with soft solders
(melting point below 400°)
- use reflector nozzle H
- thoroughly clean both joining sections before soldering
- pre-heat both sections and apply soldering wire (do
not use lead-based soldering wire)
• Thawing out frozen water pipes $
- use reflector nozzle H
- heat the frozen area evenly
! do no thaw out water pipes made of PVC
! water pipes are often difficult to distinguish from
gas pipes; heating gas pipes is extremely
dangerous – risk of explosion
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLES:
★ thawing out frozen car locks (position 1, max. 70°C)
(use reduction nozzle J)
★ defrosting freezers (do not damage the plastic
housing)
★ thawing out ice-covered steps and pavements
• Shaping plastic tubes
- use reflector nozzle H
- fill the tube with sand and seal it at both ends, to avoid
kinking of the tube
- heat the tube evenly by moving it from side to side
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLES:
★ shaping all plastics with a low melting-point
(polyethylene, PVC etc.)
★ shaping all plastics with a high melting-point (acrylic
glass, Plexiglas etc.)
★ shaping and bending carpet tiles made of synthetic
fibres
★ shaping and bending of wood (model-building)
• Welding plastics
- the weld seam must be clean and grease-free
- keep welding rod close to weld seam and apply heat,
until the welding rod gets tacky
- remove heat, when weld seam is filled up
OTHER APPLICATION EXAMPLES:
★ repairing of surfboards, skis and other synthetic sports
goods (use flat nozzle G)
★ welding PVC-materials
★ smoothing blisters after sticking PVC-labels
★ connecting garden hoses (use reflector nozzle H)
• Drying
! only dry with a low or medium temperature
setting (position 1 or 2) and with an increased
distance between the tool and the workpiece
- drying of paint, varnish, gypsum, mortar and plaster
- drying wet timber prior to filling
- drying thickly applied filler or adhesive quickly
- drying building joints before spraying insulation or
sealant
- drying joints and cracks in boatbuilding
• Cleaning/disinfecting
- disinfecting rabbit hutches, dove cotes, etc. (remove
your pet first)
- combatting ant colonies
- combatting woodworms and boring beetles (hold the
tool at an adequate distance from the wood)
- eliminating weeds

• This tool is not intended for professional use
• Always keep tool and cord clean (especially ventilation
slots E 2)
• Never use easy inflammable liquids for cleaning the heat
gun in general and the air outlet/nozzle in particular
• If the tool should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair should be
carried out by an after-sales service centre for SKIL
power tools
- send the tool undismantled together with proof of
purchase to your dealer or the nearest SKIL service
station (addresses as well as the service diagram of
the tool are listed on www.skil.com)
