- Tool Use and Care: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
- Heat Gun Specific Safety:
- Do not direct the hot air stream at people or animals.
- Do not use the heat gun near flammable materials or gases.
- Allow the tool to cool down completely before storing.
- Ensure adequate ventilation in the work area to prevent the buildup of fumes.
