The hot air gun is like Proxxon usual, small, light and thus portable. It is designed clean, you have not spared screws, cables and housing materials also look inspire confidence from. This is also customary in Proxxon. The handle of the gun is good, although it does not quite fit in normal hands that the small size is due. The pistol only has three settings, which are operated via the step switch: Off, 350 °, 550 °. This is firmly combined with the appropriate air flow. The attached accessory is helpful, especially the simple but ingenious tilt stand. He is simply clamped and the machine can be safely erected. So you can work with both hands, and the air intake is not disturbed. In operation, the gun does hitherto unremarkable their service, the first temperature stage (350) has always been adequate for my work, the noise is relatively quiet. When you drop on a flat plate, the hot nozzle does not come into contact with the plate.
