• Keep work area well lighted and clean.
• Do not overreach, especially when
working on ladders. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Be certain

working angle.

PERSONS REMOVING PAINT SHOULD
FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES:
WARNING Extreme care should be
taken when stripping paint. The peel-
ings, residue and vapors of paint may
contain lead, which is poisonous. Any
paint applied before 1950 is likely to con-
tain lead. Any paint manufactured before
1977 may contain lead. Once the paint
is deposited on the surface, hand-to-
mouth contact can result in the ingestion
of lead. Exposure to even low levels of
lead can cause irreversible brain and
nervous system damage. Young and un-
born children are particularly vulnerable
to lead poisoning.
Before beginning any paint removal
process, you should determine whether
the paint you are removing contains
lead. This can be done by your local
health department or by a professional
who uses a paint analyzer to check the
lead content of the paint to be removed.
LEAD-BASED PAINT SHOULD ONLY
BE REMOVED BY A PROFESSIONAL
AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED
USING A HEAT GUN.
WARNING This product when used
for soldering and similar application, can
expose you to LEAD, which is known to
the State of California to cause cancer
and birth defects and other reproductive
harm. For more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
Important Safety Information • Read all safety information before operating
equipment. Save these instructions
www.masterappliance.com
• Stay alert and use common sense
when operating any tools.
• Use caution when operating the hot
air gun. Keep the hot air gun moving as
excessive heat will generate fumes which
can be inhaled by the operator.
• Keep food and drink out of the work
area. Wash hands, arms and face and
rinse mouth before eating or drinking. Do
not smoke or chew gum or tobacco in the
work area.
• Move the work piece outdoors. If this
is not possible, keep the work area well
ventilated. Open the windows and put an
exhaust fan in one of them. Be sure the
fan is moving the air from inside to outside.
• Remove or cover any carpets, rugs,
furniture, clothing, cooking utensils and
air ducts.
• Place drop cloths in the work area to
catch any paint chips or peelings. Wear
protective clothing such as extra work
shirts, overalls and hats.
• Work in one room at a time. Furnishings
should be removed or placed in the center
of the room and covered. Work areas
should be sealed off from the rest of the
dwelling by sealing doorways with drop
cloths.
• Children, pregnant or potentially
pregnant women and nursing mothers
should not be present in the work area
until the work is done and all cleanup is
complete.
• Wear a dust respirator or a dual filter
(dust and fume) respirator mask which
has been approved by the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),
the National Institute of Safety and Health
(NIOSH), or the United States Bureau
of Mines. These masks and replace-
able filters are readily available at major
hardware stores. Be sure the mask fits.
Beards and facial hair may keep masks
from sealing properly. Change filters often.
DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT
ADEQUATE.
