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 redu
these chemicals: work in well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that
are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING！IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING：Heat guns are a source of very high temperature flameless heat (up to 750°F/399°C).
As with other products which generate extremely high temperatures, regardless of your

specific application, sufficient care and caution should be observed when using this product
to reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or personal injury. Therefore, we recommend that
you pay very close attention to the following safety instructions which are provided for your
protection.

and be sure to observe sensible fire precautions.

03. DO NOT use this heat gun on hollow surfaces such

as outdoor siding, walls, soffits, panels and
partitions, etc. Areas like this often contain
flammable materials such as dust, wood chips,
insulation, rodent nests and other debris which
could accidentally ignite. Use your heat gun for
stripping paint from solid woodwork with ins and
outs such as solid interior trim, molding, turnings,
doors, balusters and porch trim, etc.

moving in a continuous back and forth motion. Be
aware that stopping or pausing too long in one spot
could ignite the surface you are working on or the
area behind it.

05. NEVER breathe or swallow lead based paint in any

form. Many old homes and other buildings contain
lead based paint. Dust scrapings, residues and
vapors of lead based paint are extremely poisonous.
Prevent possible lead poisoning when stripping this
type of paint by using adequate ventilation (such as
a window fan in the exhaust mode), and keeping a
clean work area. Use a
lead when dust or vapors are present. Work outside
when possible.

06. Failure to follow adequate safety precautions when

working with lead based paint could result in lead
poisoning.

07. WARNING: To lessen the risk of fire or electric

shock, NEVER expose heat guns to rain or moisture.
Store indoors. Connect to grounded outlet only.

08. Do not use plug adapters or remove the ground

prong from the plug. This tool is equipped with a
3-prong plug and a 3-wire grounding system.
Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

10. Heat guns can produce up to 750°F(399°C) of
flameless heat. NEVER direct this hot airstream at
clothing, hands or other body parts. NEVER use as
a hair dryer.

11. Always hold tool by the handle or use the attached
stand. NEVER touch the nozzle opening or nozzle
