General Safety Rules for Heat Guns
Never use heat guns as
hairdryers! You will be
seriously injured.
Avoid contact with nozzle of heat gun
during use. This heat gun generates
temperatures as high as 1200 degrees
Fahrenheit. You may be seriously burned.
Do not use heat guns in the rain, moisture
or immerse in water. Exposing the heat
gun element to water or other liquids may
cause electrical shock hazard.
Do not use heat guns in areas where
flammable liquids or gases may be stored
or are present. The heat gun generates
high temperatures and may ignite these
materials.
Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate heating appliance in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust, dry grass, leaves and paper. Heating
appliances generate high temperatures
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Combustible materials like dry grass, leaves
and paper will scorch and may catch fire.
Keep bystanders, children and visitors
away while operating a heating appliance.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
Before plugging in the heating appliance,
be certain the outlet voltage supplied is
compatible with the voltage marked on
the nameplate within 10%. An outlet
voltage incompatible with that specified on
the nameplate can result in serious hazards
and damage to the heating appliance.
When operating a heating appliance use
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) on
the circuit or outlet. Don’t expose heating
appliance to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a heating appliance will create an
electric shock hazard.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord to carry the heating appliance or pull
the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords create electric
shock hazard.
10) At the end of each work session put
the paint chips and debris in a double
plastic bag, close it with tape or twist ties
and dispose of properly.
11) Remove protective clothing and work
shoes in the work area to avoid carrying
dust into the rest of the dwelling. Wash
work clothes separately. Wipe shoes off with
a wet rag that is then washed with the work
clothes. Wash hair and body thoroughly with
soap and water.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
