8 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.
Use only one hand to hold the tool. Do not place your other hand over the air vents.
Prior to operation:
Mount the correct accessory for the application.
Set the desired air temperature.
8.1 Switching on and off
To switch the tool on, set the on/off switch to position: POWXQ6104: 1 / 2 or 3 -
POWXQ6110: 1 or 2. Some smoke may be emitted after switching on; this does not
indicate a problem.
To switch the tool off, set the on/off switch to position: 1 (which is the cool-down position /
set the tool at the lowest air temperature and max. air flow
to cool off). Then set the on/off
switch to position 0. Let the tool cool down before moving or storing it.
Inrush currents can cause short-time voltage drops; under unfavourable power supply
conditions, other equipment may be affected (if the system impedance of the power supply is
lower than 0,127 + j0,079 Ohm, disturbances are unlikely to occur); if you need further
clarification, you may contact your local power supplier.
8.2 Temperature setting
8.2.1 POWXQ6104:
Slide ON/OFF switch to 1, 2 or 3 depending on temperature you need. The heat gun will start
to buzz.
8.2.2 POWXQ6110:
Slide ON/OFF switch to 1 or 2, depending on temperature you need. The heat gun will start to
buzz. Now you can increase or decrease the outlet temperature and air flow gradually by
pressing the buttons (4). The LCD will display the temperature in digits and air flow in ladder
pattern. Temperature in digits increase or decrease by every 10°C.
8.3 Stripping paint
Mount an appropriate accessory.
Set a high air temperature.
Switch the tool on.
Direct the hot air onto the paint to be removed.
When the paint softens, scrape the paint away using a hand scraper.
Do not strip metal window frames, as the heat may be conducted onto the
glass and crack it. When stripping other window frames, use the glass
protection nozzle.
Do not keep the tool directed at one spot too long to prevent igniting the
surface.
