DRAPER | | OPERATION AND USE |
- NOTE:
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
- IMPORTANT:
Ensure that the machine is switched OFF before
connecting to the power supply.
- ON/OFF SWITCH: (Fig. 1)
The ON/OFF switch has three positions/settings,
position 0 is off. Position 1 is “cool heat” which is a
steady 50°C heat (approx.). Position 2 is variable heat
from 50°C rising to 550°C depending on dial rotation
shown below.
- FREESTANDING OPERATION: (Fig.2) Fig.2
This hot air gun can be positioned freestanding. This
allows the user to have both hands free which is
essential for certain applications, eg. pipe bending,
plastic welding, etc. Position the hot air gun on its end,
only on a level suitable surface.
- NOTE:
Never leave the hot air gun unattended or switched on.
- VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND LED
READOUT: (Fig3)
When setting 2 is selected on the ON/OFF switch (Fig.1)
the hotair guns output temperature can be controlled 7
by the dial on the back of the heatgun. This can be Fig.3
rotated anticlockwise for cool (50°C approx.) and
clockwise for hot (550°C approx.). The variable
temperature achieved between these two minimum and
maximum settings is indicated on the top of the
heatgun by the LED display.
The following instructions on page 8 should only be
used as a guide as the ideal temperature should be
ascertained by performing a test on the workpiece.
Heating efficiency will vary depending on the
properties of the workpiece, and the distance kept
between the metal nozzle and the workpiece itself.
- IMPORTANT:
Please note this machine is fitted with a safety thermal
overload protection. If the product, is continuously used
too close to the workpiece resulting in over heating and
the machine potentially catching fire, the thermal
overload protection will be activated and stop the
machine. This feature will reset once the temperature
has fallen. Remember the nozzle will remain hot for
sometime - a safe storage location should be used.

(DRAPER Y | OPERATION AND USE |
- RETRACTABLE HEAT GUARD (Fig.4).
This heat guard can be extended in order to protect
vunerable surfaces, ie carpet when applying heat to
skirting boards. The purpose is to prevent contact to the
metal exhaust of the heatgun which becomes
extremely hot.
- PAINT REMOVAL FROM WINDOW FRAMES (Fig.5):
IMPORTANT:
Do not direct the hot air gun at the glass during use as
it may crack. Always use the glass protection nozzle
(A). Do not touch the glass with the hot nozzle.
- HEATING AND SHAPING PLASTIC TUBING (Fig.6):
Fit the reflector hook nozzle (B). Switch the hot air gun
on to the low heat setting and, carefully heat the
tubing evenly moving it from side to side.
- DEFROSTING WATER PIPES (Fig.7):
IMPORTANT:
Do not defrost plastic tubing/piping. Fit the reflector
hook nozzle (C). Switch the hot air gun on to the
higher heat setting and, gently heat the frozen area of
the pipe starting from the edge of the area and moving
in towards the centre.
IMPORTANT:
Take care not to heat the pipe too quickly as this could
cause the pipe to crack and burst. Do not overheat
water pipe joints as these are only soldered together
(max. 200°C).
