Bosch 1943 LED Instrucciones De Funcionamiento Y Seguridad página 7

The ideal temperature should first be ascer-
tained by performing a test. You should there-
fore start with a low temperature setting. The
temperatures specified in the illustrated ex-
amples of use are recommended values which
can vary depending on the properties of the
workpiece. The distance between the nozzle
and workpiece is dependent on the material to
be processed. Additional information can be
found in popular DIY books or consult the
manufacturer of the heat activated product.
NOTE: The 1100ºF(595ºC) setting can not be
reached on full air flow setting. If 1100ºF(595ºC)
is required, reduce setting on blower speed dial
3 until 1100ºF(595ºC) is indicated on LED
temperature display 4.
Bosch stocks a range of accessories (see cata-
log) which offer a wide range of other applica-
tions.
The sections indicated by capital letters in the
instructions for use below refer to the illustrated
examples of use in this manual.
A
Removing paint/dissolving adhesives
Fit the flat nozzle. Soften the paint using hot air
and remove evenly using a scraper. Do not heat
the paint for too long since this will burn the
paint, making it more difficult to remove. To
carry out work in confined spaces, remove the
heat shield. Many adhesives (e.g. stickers) be-
come softer when heated, allowing adhesive
bonds to be separated and adhesive to be re-
moved.
B
Removing paint or caulking from
windows
Glass can break easily. Always use the glass
deflector nozzle. On profiled surfaces, paint
can be removed using a scraper and brushed off
using a soft wire brush.
C
Shrink fitting electrical connections
Fit the reflector or reducing nozzle. Select a
heat-shrinkable sleeve with a diameter match-
ing that of the workpiece, e.g. cable lug. Heat
the heat-shrinkable sleeve evenly.

D
Defrosting water pipes
Fit the reflector nozzle. Always heat the frozen
area inwards from the edge to the center.
CAUTION! Do not attempt to defrost PVC
piping.
Note: Water pipes are often difficult to distin-
guish from gas pipes. Copper pipes are joined
using tin and should therefore not be heated
above 392ºF (200ºC).
