Initial start-up

When used for the first time, some smoke may escape. The smoke is caused by binders which are removed from the insulating film of the heater by the heat during first use. To ensure that the smoke escapes quickly, the device should be placed on the stand area (D 20). Be sure to ventilate the working environment during first use. If the smoke/odour is too strong, move the initial start-up to outside! Initial Operation

The 2-in-1 long-reach hot air blower/weed killer can be used as both a handheld device (for operation as a hot air blower) and as a long-reach tool (for operation as a weed killer).

For use as a weed killer, the device may only be operated with the extension pipe. When eliminating weeds, hold the device by the handle on the extension.

Operation

Turning the handle

The device has two handle positions.

Position 1

Suitable for eliminating weeds and lighting charcoal.

After using the device, always place it in position 1 with its base (20) and stand bracket (21) on an even, fireproof surface until the device has cooled down.

Fold out the stand bracket (21) for use, and fold it back in after use.

Position 2

Suitable for use as a heat gun.

1. To turn the handle (6), move the lock switch (3) forward towards the blow-off pipe (1). The "O" icon appears.

1. Keep the lock switch (3) in this position and turn the handle (6) to the desired position.

2. Release the lock switch (E 3). The icon appears. Check whether the handle (6) has clicked into the desired position and can no longer be turned.

Switching on and off

Depending on the application, the device can be set to three temperature levels using the on/off switch (5).

Level 1 = 100^

Level 2 = 350^

Level 3 = 650^

Switching the device on:

1. Insert the mains plug into a wall socket.
2. Switch the on/off switch (5) to the desired level 1, 2 or 3.

After approximately 1 minute, the device will reach the full operating temperature.

Switching the device off:

1. To switch the device off, set the on/off switch (5) to level "0".
2. After using the device, always place it on its base (D 20) on an even, fireproof surface until the device has cooled down.
3. Remove the mains plug from the socket

Use as a floor-mounted appliance

You can use the device as a floor-mounted appliance. For this purpose, place the device on the two bases (9).

Ensure stability and safety and a heat-resistant surface.

The position as a floor-mounted appliance is also ideally suited to allowing the device to cool down after use.

Use of adapter nozzles

Before exchanging adapter nozzles, the adapter nozzle (15/16/17/18/19) and blow-off pipe 1 must be sufficiently cooled down to avoid burns.

Various uses are possible. Always comply with the safety instructions and always handle the device with care and caution.

Restrictor

Place the restrictor (19) on the blow-off pipe (A 1). Use the restrictor (19) to obtain selective heat, e.g. to seal plastics (films, shrink tubing).

When using the restrictor (19), pay particular attention to the heat development at the cutting point. If in doubt, do not stay in the same place for too long in order to avoid overheating the workpiece.

Surface nozzle

Place the surface nozzle (17) on the blowoff pipe (A 1).

Use the surface nozzle (17) to obtain heat over a large surface.

It is especially suitable for dissolving adhesive or softening paints.

When using the surface nozzle (17), pay particular attention to the heat development in adjacent locations of the cutting point. So that in cases of doubt, no adjacent component is overheated.

Spatula nozzle

Place the spatula nozzle (18) on the blowoff pipe (A 1).

The spatula form of the nozzle serves the purpose of the targeted hot air supply to paint and lacquer surfaces. The paints and lacquers can be removed with a spatula and scraper. The spatula (18) itself is not suitable for removing paint.

Grill lighter nozzle

Place the grill lighter nozzle (15) on the blow-off pipe (A 1).

Change the device with the step switch (G 5) to level "3". Place the grill lighter nozzle (15) below the charcoal. Make sure that the openings of the grill lighter nozzle (15) are not covered by charcoal as this creates heat accumulation in the unit, which is a potential fire hazard In just a few minutes the charcoal is ignited.

Never use other methods for igniting charcoal at the same time while using the grill lighter nozzle (15).

Use the grill lighter nozzle (15) only for the few minutes necessary to ignite the charcoal.

Never use the grill lighter nozzle (15) for any other application.

Conical nozzle

For use as a weed killer, the device may only be operated with the extension pipe. When eliminating weeds, hold the device by the handle on the extension.

Place the conical nozzle (16) on the blow-off pipe (A 1).

Use the conical nozzle (16) to remove weeds.

To eliminate weeds, use the conical nozzle on the plant to be removed for approx. 5-10 seconds.

For higher plants, you can shrink them by briefly heating the upper part of the plant. Then, use the coni

cal nozzle on the shrunken plant for 5-10 seconds.

Initial start-up as a weed killer

Mount the extension pipe to use the device as a weed killer.

Mounting the extension

1. Turn the handle (6) on the hot air blower to the position ① (see chapter "Turning the handle" F).

2. Insert the extension pipe (9) into the threaded coupling (12) on the handle shaft (13) and tighten the coupling nuts (10).

3. Now, insert the extension pipe (9) into the threaded coupling (7) on the device housing (2) of the hot air blower and tighten the coupling nuts (10).

1. Guide the mains cable (8) along the extension handle (9) and fix it using the two cable clips (11).

2. Guide the mains cable (8) through the cable strain relief (14) on the handle shaft (13). At the height of cable strain relief, form a loop, which you can guide through the eyelets on the cable holder (14) and hang on the back.

Working instructions Weed killer

The conical nozzle (B 16) is best suited to remove weeds.
The best time to begin removing weeds is the spring
- Weed removal is most effective when

the plant is still young.

The success of actions using the device will not be immediately visible.
Depending on the plant type, it may not respond immediately to the heat for the recommended exposure time.

• Young, soft-leaved plants are sensitive to the treatment and afterwards they are no longer viable.
• Hard-leaved grasses are very robust. They have to be treated more frequently.
• Older plants and plants with hard leaves, such as thistles, have to be treated more regularly at 1-2 week intervals in order to successfully dry them out.

The visible part of the plant can also be scorched for a longer exposure time during treatment.
Scorching the plants is not absolutely necessary. Heating them dries out the leaves and any weeds die.
- When treating areas filled with roots, you will have to repeat treatments several times in short periods for lasting success. After this, longer treatment intervals will suffice.
- With some weeds, you may have to repeat the treatment.
