GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING! Read all instructions

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,

re, and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed

below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated

(cordless) power tool.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work area safety1.

Keep work area clean and well lit.a. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in theb.

presence of ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.c.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety2.

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in anya.

way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,b.

radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.c. Water entering a

power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling ord.

unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges

or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric

shock.

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable fore.

outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electric shock.

Personal safety3.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operatinga.

a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the

inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.b. Safety equip-

ment such as respirator, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

Page 4SKU 96289 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position beforec.

plugging in. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in

power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.d. This

enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelery. Keep your hair,e.

clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelery or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

Power tool use and care4.

Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.a.

The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it

was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.b. Any power

tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack fromc.

the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories,

or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allowd.

people unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate

the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,e.

breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

Use the power tool in accordance with these instructions and in the mannerf.

intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working

conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations

different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service5.

Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only a.

identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool

is maintained.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

Maintain labels and nameplates on the Heat Gun. These carry important1.

safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a

replacement.

WARNING!2. Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint. The peelings,

residue, and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous. Any pre-

1977 paint may contain lead and paint applied to homes prior to 1950 is likely to

contain lead. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in

the ingestion of lead. Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible

brain and nervous system damage; young and unborn children are particularly

vulnerable.

LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED BY A PROFESSIONAL3.

AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED BY USING A HEAT GUN. Before beginning

a paint removal process you should determine whether the paint you are

removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health department or by

a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check the lead content of the paint to

be removed.

People removing paint should follow these guidelines:4.

Indoors, keep the work area well ventilated. Open the windows and place an•

exhaust fan in one of them. Make sure the fan is moving the air from inside to

outside.

Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing, and cooking utensils.•

Place a drop cloth in the work area to catch any paint chips or peelings.•

Wear protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls, and hats.•

Work in one room at a time. Furnishings should be removed or placed in the•

center of the room and covered. Work areas should be sealed off from the rest

of the dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.

Children, pregnant or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers should•

not be present in the work area until the work is done and all clean up is

complete.

Wear a dust respirator mask or a dual lter (dust and fume) respirator •

mask which has been approved by the Occupational Safety and Health

Administration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH), or

the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable lters are

readily available at major hardware stores. Make sure the mask ts. Beards

and facial hair may keep masks from sealing properly. Change lters often.

DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.

Use caution when operating the Heat Gun. Keep the Heat Gun moving, as•

excessive heat will generate fumes which can be inhaled by the operator.

Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands, arms and face and•

rinse mouth before eating or drinking. Do not smoke or chew tobacco in the

work area.

When working with plastics, varnish, or similar materials, gases develop that•

are easily ammable and can lead to explosions. Be prepared for ames to

develop and keep suitable re extinguishing means at hand.

Page 6SKU 96289 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

The Nozzle becomes very hot. Do not lay the Heat Gun on ammable surfaces •

when operating the Gun or immediately after turning the Gun off. Always set

the Heat Gun on a at, level surface so that the Nozzle tip is directed upwards

and away from the supporting surface.

Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the oors. Use a wet •

cloth to clean all walls, sills, and any other surface where paint or dust is

clinging. DO NOT SWEEP, DRY DUST, OR VACUUM. Use a high phosphate

detergent or trisodium phosphate (TSP) to wash and mop areas.

At the end of each work session, place the paint chips and debris in a double•

plastic bag. Then close the bag with tape or twist ties and dispose of properly.

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 cloth that is then washed with the work clothes. Wash hair and

body thoroughly with soap and water.

This Heat Gun can ignite combustible uids and gases. Do not work in a 5.

potentially explosive environment. Check the surrouding area before starting the

work. Do not work on fuel or gas containers or in their vicinity, even when they

are empty.

Hidden areas such as behind walls, ceilings, oors, soft boards, and other 6.

panels may contain ammable materials that could be ignited by the Heat Gun

when working in these locations. The ignition of these materials may not be

readily apparent and could result in property damage and injury to people.

When working in these locations, keep the Heat Gun moving in a back-and-forth

motion. Lingering or pausing in one spot could ignite the panel or the material

behind it.

The hot air jet can injure people and animals. Touching the hot tube of the7.

heating element or the Nozzle leads to skin burns. Do not touch the tube of the

heating element or the Nozzle when they are hot. Do not use the Heat Gun as a

hair dryer. Do not use the unit to heat up uids or to dry objects or materials that

are destroyed through the inuence of hot air.

This Heat Gun is for indoor use only.8.

Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.9.

Do not leave the Heat Gun unattended when it is plugged into an electrical10.

outlet. Turn off the tool. Unplug it from its electrical outlet. And allow the tool to

completely cool before leaving.

Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the11.

workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is

unstable and may lead to loss of control.

This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.12.

Page 7SKU 96289 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

Do not drop the Heat Gun as the heating elements may be damaged.13.

People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use.14.

Electromagnetic elds in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause

pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. In addition, people with

pacemakers should:

• Avoid operating alone.

• Do not use with power switch locked on.

• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid electrical shock.

• Any power cord must be properly grounded. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter

(GFCI) should also be implemented – it prevents sustained electrical shock.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other15.

construction activities, contains chemicals known [to the State of California] 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 or other masonry products

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 respirators that

are specially designed to lter out microscopic particles. (California Health &

Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)

The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual16.

cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be

understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which

cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

GROUNDING

Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in

electric shock.

Check with a qualied electrician if you are in doubt as to

whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify

the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never remove

the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if

the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it

repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not

t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied

electrician.

WARNING

Page 8SKU 96289 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs

Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong 1.

grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If

the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low

resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric

shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the2.

cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the

only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached

to an electrically “live” terminal. (See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and3.

grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet

should look like those in the following illustration.

(See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

3-Prong Plug and Outlet Outlets for 2-Prong Plug

Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs

Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special 1.

double insulation system which satises OSHA requirements and complies

with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian

Standard Association, and the National Electrical Code.

(See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the2.

preceding illustration. (See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Extension Cords

Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can 1.

use either a two or three wire extension cord.

As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge2.

extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a

serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.

(See Table A.)

Page 9SKU 96289 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.

The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.3.

For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.

(See Table A.)

When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make4.

sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Table A.)

If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate5.

amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.

(See Table A.)

Make sure the extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.6.

Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualied

electrician before using it.

Protect the extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet7.
