GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTI NS -
READ ALL INSTRUCTI NS BEF RE PERATING THIS HEAT T L
•This heat tool can only be used with vapor withdrawal propane tanks (BBQ Grill Style) and
should never be used with liquid withdrawal tanks (Fork Truck Style).
See Page 11 of this User’s Manual for additional information on the proper tank style.
• This heat tool should never be used with gasses such as Butane or Methane - Propane O LY.
•Do not operate this heat tool below 1.4 bar or damage to the heat tool will occur.
• Before using any heat tool, check all parts for proper function and damage to
component parts including the hose, regulator and heat tool.
• " idden areas such as behind walls, ceilings, floors, soffit boards and other panels may
contain flammable materials that could be ignited by the heat tool when working in these
locations. The ignition of these materials may not be readily apparent and could result in
property damage and injury to persons. When working in these locations, keep the heat tool
moving in a back and forth motion. Lingering or pausing in one spot could ignite the panel
or the material behind it."
• Do not use the heat tool to remove paint.
• Do not point this heat tool at anyone and do not operate in an area where there
is a risk of an explosion or fire.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTI NS
• When working with any type of heat or open flame, always keep a fire extinguisher close by.
• Always were safety glasses and gloves (flame retardant or leather is suggested)
when shrink wrapping. Never obstruct or cover the air inlet at the back of the heat tool.
If the air flow is reduced the heat tool will not work properly.
• When shrink wrapping outdoors, do not shrink wrap when the wind is stronger than 16 kph.
• When shrink wrapping indoors, make sure the work area is well ventilated.
• Keep the work area clear of debris, wood shavings, paper products, flammable
chemicals and anything else that may catch fire from the heat of the tool.
• Do not wear loose clothing while shrink wrapping and also keep long hair tied back.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the heat
tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating the heat tool may result in serious personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the heat tool in unexpected situations.
• Never operate the heat tool with the combustor nozzle hard up against a surface;
this could ignite any material you are shrink wrapping.
• Do not place the combustor nozzle (where the fla e co es out of the heat tool)
next to anything while it is hot. Never allow the combustor nozzle to come in
contact with clothing or skin.
4
• Do not look down the combustor nozzle while the tool is in operation or attached to a
fuel source.
•The heat tool should be kept 15 cm – 20 cm away from the shrink film when in
operation. Never keep the heat on one area for more than a few seconds.
Once heat is applied to the shrink film, it will continue to shrink even after
the heat is moved away from the area.
• Never modify the tool in any way and use only Shrinkfast replacement parts.
• Never operate in a basement or closed in, non-ventilated area or on an area that you
cannot see.
• Always operate the heat tool with the flame guard installed.
• This heat tool generates a db level under 85 db, however proper ear protection is always
recommended when operating any heat tool.

REGULAT R PERATI N & MAINTENANCE
Regulator Technical verview:
• The MEGR-6120 is a high capacity, bar to bar, industrial gas regulator. It is designed to
conform to UL®Standard 144 for use with LP Gas. The maximum supply pressure is
17.25 bar. The maximum output pressure is printed on the regulator nameplate.
• This regulator is not intended for use in pressure applications below .21 bar and
the heat tool should not be operated at a pressure below 1.4 bar. The operating
temperature range is -40 to 93 degrees Celsius.

This is a variable regulator assembly and the heat tool will operate
properly between 1.4 bar and 2.0 bar. The pressure can be changed by
loosening the hex nut located under the black, round hand wheel on the
regulator assembly and then turning the hand wheel to the desired pressure.
owever, the optimum and factory recommendation is that you do not
adjust the pressure and keep the regulator set at the factory setting of 1.5 bar.
Regulator Installation:
1.Remove the yellow cap from the POL (brass, bull nose fitting) and connect the
POL to your propane tank and tighten with the supplied wrench (all threads
are left handed thread, so tighten counter clockwise).

2.Connect one end of the supplied 7.62 meter hose to the hose adapter on the regulator
and the other end of the hose to the heat tool. Tighten all fittings with the
supplied wrench (left handed threads, so tighten counter clockwise).
3.Open the propane tank valve and check for any leaks by spraying a soapy
water mixture on the fittings. If any bubbles are visible, shut off the propane
tank and tighten the fittings.
4.When you first turn on the propane tank, the pressure gauge on the regulator
will slowly move toward the factory setting of 1.5 bar. Once the hose is fully
pressurized, the needle on the gauge will stop at 1.5 bar. Now the heat tool is
ready to be fired.

STARTING THE HEAT T L
1.Depress the yellow safety that sits in the palm of your hand. If you do not
depress the safety first, you will not be able to pull the trigger with your finger
tips and ignite the heat tool.
2.With the safety depressed, slowly pull the trigger with your fingertips so you
first hear a slight “hissing” of propane flow, then pull the trigger completely
and the heat tool will “click” then ignite.
3.Should the gun fail to ignite, release both the safety and trigger fully to ensure
that the igniter is reset and repeat the starting procedure.
WARNING: MANY NEW USERS PULL THE TRIGGER T
