APPLYING PREHEAT INSULATION (IF REQUIRED)

PART TEMP ½ IN. PREHEAT INSULATION REQUIREMENTS*
ºF (ºC) AIR-COOLED QUICK WRAP AIR-COOLED CABLE
122–302 (50–150) — —
302–392 (150–200) — 1 layer
392–482 (200–250) 1 layer 1 layer

*To help avoid damage to heating tool, always protect it by applying insulation on the workpiece anywhere the tool will be placed. Note that in some instances, adding a layer of insulation may increase kW output; be sure to check the parameter screen to monitor kW output on setup.
