only identical replacement parts. When using

electric tools, basic safety precautions should

always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric

shock and personal injury. This hot air gun

operates at 1200°F with no visual indication of

WARNING:

Some dust created by power

sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other

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 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.

WARNING!

This tool is capable of producing temperatures up

to 1200°F of flameless heat at the nozzle.
