Heat Gun (30229) Overdue

Your Heat Gun OZHG2000WAK has been designed for stripping paint, warm heat shrinking and virtually to perform any task where hot air is required. It is intended for DIY use only.

Note this unit has a high and low switch setting, and a dial adjuster on the rear of the unit which can be used to fine-tune the amount of heating.

Specifications:

• Motor size: 2000W
• Input: 230-240V ~ 50Hz
• Temp. at nozzle outlet: 70-600°C
• Air flow:
• Fan/Heat setting 1: 250 l/min
• Fan/Heat setting 2: 450 l/min
• Tool weight: 0.8kg

Instructions:

Start-up:

• Ensure the switch is in the off position ‘O’ before connecting to the power supply.
• Caution: The heatgun has a built-in thermal protection overload switch. The Heatgun stops if an overload occurs. The Heatgun restarts automatically after it has cooled down.
• ON/OFF switch - Fan/heat Setting 1:
• A low heat setting may be required in certain cases, e.g. to avoid overheating the workpiece’s surroundings or to avoid displacing the workpiece if the airflow is too strong.
• ON/OFF switch - Fan/heat Setting 2:
• A higher heat setting heats up the workpiece more quickly and enables the hot air gun to be held at a greater distance from the workpiece.

Temperature Control:

• Your heatgun is also provided with a temperature control (2) Dial, this is used to pre set any required heat settings by turning the dial. Once you have set the dial you are then limited to the temperature range of 0 to the heat selected.
• 1. To increase the temperature rotate the temperature control (2) in a clockwise towards the "HIGH +" direction
• 2. To decrease the temperature rotate the temperature control (2) in a anticlockwise towards the "LOW -" direction.

Danger of fire and explosion!

• Inflammable and poisonous gases may be produced when working with plastics, paints (especially older types of paint), varnishes and similar materials. The ideal temperature should first be ascertained by performing a test. You should therefore start with a low temperature setting. The working temperature can vary depending on the properties of the workpiece. The distance between the nozzle and workpiece is dependent on the material to be processed.

Removing paint/dissolving adhesives

• Soften the paint using hot air and remove evenly with the scraper.
• Do not heat the paint for too long since this will burn the paint, making it more difficult to remove. Many adhesives (e.g. stickers) become softer when heated, allowing adhesive bonds to be separated and superfluous adhesive to be removed.

Removing paint from windows

• Glass can break easily. Always use the glass protection nozzle. On profiled surfaces, paint can be removed using a scraper and brushed off using a soft wire brush.

Shaping plastic tubing

• Fit the reflector nozzle. To avoid kinking the tubing, fill the tubing with sand and seal at both ends. Heat the tubing evenly by moving it from side to side.

Staining wood

• Fit the Cone Nozzle. Hot air staining gives natural wood a rustic effect.
• Do not hold the nozzle too close to the wood as this will colour the wood unevenly.
• Carefully sand off any singed wood fibres afterwards using fine emery paper.

Shrink fitting

• Fit the cone nozzle. Select a heat-shrinkable sleeve with a diameter matching that of the workpiece, e.g.cable lug. Heat the heat-shrinkable sleeve evenly.

Defrosting water pipes

• Do not attempt to defrost-PVC piping.
• Fit the reflector nozzle. Always heat the frozen area inwards from the edge to the centre.
• Note: Water pipes are often difficult to distinguish from gas pipes. Copper pipes are joined using tin and should therefore not be heated above 200ºC.

WARNING! This tool is designed for indoor use only. Using this tool for prolonged periods may cause it to overheat and malfunction. Use inside a confined area, such as a cabinet etc. will increase the temperature of the tool – to ensure the tool does not overheat it is suggested frequent breaks are taken to allow the tool to cool down.

Element

• Take extra care with the heat gun element. Once the element is hot it can become fragile and break if dropped or knocked.
