INTENDED USE

The electrical weed burning system (multifunctional - high temperature - hot air) is intended primarily for heat weed disposal, ecologically, environmentally friendly, without the use of highly polluting chemicals such as controversial glyphosate - Roundup, the heat from the nozzle destroys weeds by extremely high temperature to the roots to prevent its further growth, cellular expansion spreads out due to rapid temperature rise, cell wall tears, protein collapses and weeds die, all within 5 seconds, innovative design and design allows precise focus on weeds without risk damage to surrounding plants and soil without the use of gas and open fire, remove weeds eg on outdoor stairs, entrances, pavements, paths, terraces, garage entrances, parking places, sandboxes, outdoor walls, etc.

Its multifunctionality can also be used for removing old paint or for separating glued joints, loosening the screw connections, softening the paint, removing wax residues from skis, snowboards or candlesticks, as a hot air gun or as an electric fireplace lighter, safe and quick charcoal or briquettes lighter in garden grills, all safely and quickly within 2 minutes. In addition, you can use the appliance in winter to help defrost ice on pavements, frozen water in metal containers, frozen heaters, water pipes and other non-flammable materials.

The device has an ergonomic, detachable handle for easy handling and carrying. The swivel handle and removable bar allow quick conversion to various tools. From the weed burner, you can quickly and easily get a hot air gun, a fireplace lighter, or a charcoal lighter or a defroster.

Very low weight of 0.79 kg allows comfortable work with one hand.

• Use this nozzle for heat shrinking tubes and films.

Weed burning nozzle (1)

For plant use, aim the nozzle at the plant and expose it to heat for 5 to 10 seconds depending on the plant species. In the case of larger plants, treat the upper part of the plant briefly and then aim the nozzle at the dried plant for 5 to 10 seconds.

Ignition nozzle for grill or fireplace (12)

For use as an electric fireplace lighter, safe and fast charcoal, wooden briquettes or wood in garden grills lighter, all safely and quickly within 2 minutes.

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

Remove any packaging materials from the device and dispose of them in order to prevent them from getting into the hands of children (risk of suffocation). Do not remove labels attached from the product.

Turning the device on:

Make a loop on the power cord and push it through the clamp on the handle to fasten it.

Connect the unit to an electrical socket with a voltage appropriate to the device.

Switch the device on by switching the main switch (2) to "I" or "II". The instrument the teaches full operating temperature reaches within one.

Turning the device off:

Allow the appliance to cool completely before turning it off. Set the temperature to level I for at least 1 minute. Then it is possible to turn off the device safely.

Turn switch (2) to position "O".

After use, unplug the appliance from the electrical socket.

Place the instrument on a stand on a flat, non-flammable surface and allow it to cool completely.

Temperature setting:

You can set the temperature with the temperature switch (2) between positions I and II.

Depending on your application, you can select the most suitable temperature of the air coming out of the nozzle:

Level I: about 80 °C

Level II: about 650 °C

Rotating the working head

The working head is rotatable. Press the button (7) to rotate it.

CAUTION! Do not cover the ventilation openings during use. CAUTION! RISK OF BURNS! Do not touch the hot nozzle.

1. HOT AIR GUN USE

WARNING!

• Before changing the nozzle, make sure that the nozzle has cooled down to prevent burns.
• Too high temperature can cause ignition of paint and plastics.

CAUTION! Do not breathe fumes during work.

• Select the best angle for working with the hot air gun using the button (7).
• Replace the head for use with the hot air gun (9, 10, 11).
• Plug in the appliance.

2. WEED BURNER USE

WARNING!

• Before changing the nozzle, make sure that the nozzle has cooled down to prevent burns.
• Too high temperature can cause ignition of paint and plastics.

CAUTION! Do not breathe fumes during work.

• Assemble an extension rod for weed burning.
  • Install the weed burning nozzle (1).
• Plug in the appliance.
• Check that the head is not clogged before turning on the device.
• Switch the control switch to position II: the unit will start working.

• Allow the unit to warm up for about 1 minute to reach full operating temperature.

• Weed disposal is most effective during the growing season.
  • The best time for disposal is spring.

• Disposal has the greatest effect on young plants. It does not have to be obvious right away that it was successful. The visible part of the plant may burn during extended exposure.
• For effective action and disposal, hold the nozzle about 0 to 5cm above the weed for about 5 seconds. During this short time, the cell structure will be destroyed and, as a result, weeds will die within a few days.
• It is not necessary to completely burn the plant.
• Plants do not respond immediately to thermal radiation during the recommended exposure time.
• Young plants with soft leaves are the most sensitive to the process and will not survive.
• Older plants with hard leaves, such as thistles, have to be exposed to the heat several times with intervals of one to two weeks to dry out.
  • Still green plant species are very durable and require more care.
• You must treat the overgrown areas several times at short intervals to ensure long-term effects. Then take care at longer intervals.
• Some weeds need to be exposed to heat repeatedly.

3. USE OF GRILL OD FIREPLACE LIGHTER

WARNING!

• Before changing the nozzle, make sure that the nozzle has cooled down to prevent burns.
• Too high temperature can cause ignition of paint and plastics.
• Do not use any liquid lighters.
• You will light the charcoal in a few minutes.
• Before changing the nozzle, make sure that the nozzle has cooled down to prevent burns.
• Too high temperature can ignite color and plastics.

CAUTION! Do not breathe fumes during work.

Ignition of charcoal, wood or briquettes:

- For your safety use a grill/fireplace lighter with an extension rod and a handle.

• Install the nozzle (12) to the appliance.
- Place the nozzle under the coal, briquettes or wood.
- Plug the appliance into the power socket.
- Make sure the nozzle is not clogged before switching on the device.
- Switch the control switch to position II: the unit will start working.
- Allow the unit to warm up for about 1 minute to reach full operating temperature.
- Remove the appliance as soon as charcoal, briquettes or wood begin to glow.

- Then blow the hot air on charcoal, briquettes or wood from a distance of about 10-20 cm until they start to burn or catch flame. This will ensure that the head is not damaged. Exposing the head to an extreme temperature for a long time could also cause the material to melt.
