Important Safety Instructions

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow these may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury. Save these instructions.

Laser Safety

• Do not stare into the laser beam or view it directly with optical instruments.
• Do not point the laser light at others, as it can cause eye damage.
• Avoid exposure to laser radiation; the laser may emit hazardous radiation.
• Do not point the laser at reflective surfaces, as unpredictable results may occur.

Work Area Safety

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating the Temp-Gun™.
• Store the tool out of reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or instructions to operate it.
• Avoid dangerous environments: do not use in rain, snow, damp, or wet locations.
• Do not use in the presence of explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust, or flammable materials) as sparks may be generated when inserting or removing batteries, potentially causing fire.

Personal Safety

• Stay alert and use common sense when operating the Temp-Gun™.
• Do not use while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication.
• Do not overreach; maintain proper footing and balance at all times for better control in unexpected situations.

Battery Use and Care

• This tool is designed for use with one (1) 9V battery. Do not attempt to use with any other voltage or power supply.
