GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOLS

WARNING! Read all instructions.
WARNING: Always switch off the appliance when non-working.

WARNING: Always remove the plug from the socket when not using the device, when replacing the nozzles or during maintenance of the device

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire 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 for future reference!

1. Work area
   a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
   b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gasses or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust of fumes.
   c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
   a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs which earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
   b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
   c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

English

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or 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.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

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

f. Always use tool in conjunction with a residual circuit breaker device.

The use of a residual circuit breaker device reduces the risk of electric shock.

1. Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.

The use of these pieces of equipment reduce hazards caused by dust.

1. Power tool use and care
   a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

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

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, 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.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these

instructions and in the manner 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 intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Service

a. Please use a qualified expert who uses original replacement parts to repair your power tool.

This will ensure proper functioning of the power tool.

OPERATION

Always use with caution! Do NOT cover the ventilation openings during use as it causes a risk of burns! Do not touch the hot nozzle!

Temperature settings:

With the temperature switch (1) you can select from two temperature settings. Depending on the application, you can use the following settings:

Setting I 50^ (venting / cooling)

Setting II 600^

The volume of air in each setting 500L /Minute

To turn on the power:

• Push the switch (1) in position I or position II.

To turn off the appliance:

• Push the switch on position "O".

To install the nozzle:

The nozzle (9) can easily be pushed over the hot air nozzle and secured by using the bayonet fastening. Never touch the nozzle during or immediately after use of the device. The nozzle is very hot.

OPTION 1: WEED KILLER

Assemble the extension handle

The extension handle (5) consists of two parts. Connect both parts.

Now attach the extension handle to the device.

Make sure that the extension handle firmly clicks into position. If using the device as a weed killer you must use the extension handle. Hold the weed killer firmly by holding the end of the extension handle.

Use:

• Ensure the extension handle (5) is firmly fixed onto the device and that the device is turned off.
• Install the nozzle (9) to destroy weeds.
• Insert the plug into the socket
• Check to ensure the nozzle is not blocked before turning the device on.
• Set the temperature to setting II (1).

• Allow the device about 45 seconds to warm up.

• To eliminate weeds, hold the nozzle (9) over the weeds for about 5 seconds. During these 5 seconds the cell structure of the weed is destroyed. As a result, the weed dies within a few days.
  It is not necessary to completely burn the weeds, 5 seconds is more than sufficient.

• For an efficient treatment the nozzle should be held around 0 to 5cm above the weeds
  The effects are not visible immediately but will take a while before they can be seen. It is more of a long-term effect.

OPTION 2: SPECIFIC WEED KILLER

• Ensure the extension handle is firmly fixed onto the device and that the device is turned off.
• Install the Heat-pin (10) to heat-treat the weed.
• Insert the plug into the socket.
• Set the temperature switch in position "I".
• Allow the device about 60 seconds to warm up.
• Position the heat-pin in the middle of the weed, and push the pin into the weed, up to the mark, and retract the heat-pin from the soil after about 2 seconds.
  The effect of the treatment will not be immediately obvious as it can take several days before it is visible, but it will have a long-term effect.
• Use the heat-pin only on the lawn and loose soil. Do not use on rocky soil as the heat-pin could break off.
• On some occasions, a small brown spot of burned grass can occur, but this will recover very soon.

COOLING

Before turning off the device, it must be cooled first. Select temperature setting (1) I for at least one minute. The device can be switched off thereafter.

Place the appliance on its stand (8) after use and allow it to cool down before storage

STORAGE

Make sure that the device has completely cooled down before storing.
