English
Four programs are factory-set for
the most common types of work.
Press button “P” for programming
mode. Number 1 is displayed for
program 1. Continuing to press
the program button will take you
to programs 2 – 4. Pressing the
button again will return the tool to
normal operation.
Features - Getting started
The tool is switched ON and OFF
at the multi-stage switch on the
back of the grip handle. The dis-
tance from the object you are
working on depends on material
and intended method of working.
Always try out the air flow and temperature on a test piece first.
Using the attachable accessory
nozzles the flow of heat
can be controlled with maximum
precision. Take care when
changing hot nozzles! When using the heat gun in the
self-resting position, make sure it
is standing on a stable, non-slip
and clean surface. The outlet pro-
tection tube can be removed in
order to install the overhead secu-
rity hanger.
Default programs
The settings for the four programs
can be changed and saved at any
time. To do this, press the first pro-
gram button “P” until the display
shows the program you wish to
change. Set the chosen airflow and temperature. Now press the
memory button “–>” until the “–>”
symbol is cleared from the display
(approx. 5 sec). The values
entered are now saved in the
program memory. To return to normal operation, press the
program button until the program
symbol disappears from the
display.
Operation
HG 2310 LCD / HG 2510 ESD
Stage 1 is the cool air stage. Use
the cool air function for drying
paint, cooling workpieces or to
cool the nozzle before changing
an accessory attachment.
In stage 2 temperature can be
infinitely varied over a range of
120 °F to 1200 °F on the control
panel with LCD display. The actual
temperature is measured at the
nozzle outlet and indicated on the display. The red push button on
the left-hand side is used as an
input button with minus/plus func-
tion. Temperature settings range
from 120 °F to 1200 °F
max. Briefly pressing the “+” / “–”
push button increases or reduces
the temperature setting in 10 °
steps. Pressing the button for
longer speeds up the temperature
setting process. Once the tempera- ture has been set, the tool takes a
few seconds to reach temperature
(depending on speed/airflow). If
you want to alter the setting, simply
press either button to increase or
reduce the temperature. After
switching OFF, the heat gun stays
in the last setting.
Setting the temperature
The grey button panel on the right
below the display is used for reg-
ulating airflow and blower speed.
Airflow can be controlled in sever- al stages using the “+/–” function
and can be varied from a mini-
mum of 3.6 cf/min. to a max-
imum of 17.6 cf/min. Use the cool air stage function for drying paint,
cooling workpieces or to cool the
nozzle before changing an acces-
sory attachment.
