Overview
- Use of the sock is optional, though recommended. The sock will help prevent marking and potential creasing of the underlying airplane structure.
- After installing the sock, place the Hangar 9 Heat Sealing Iron on the included stand, then place it on a heat-resistant surface. Connect the iron to an appropriate AC wall outlet. Press the ON/OFF button to power the iron on. Adjust the temperature to the desired level with the temperature adjustment buttons.
- Holding both the ON/OFF and C/F buttons for approximately three seconds will change the temperature display mode between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
- Set the Hangar 9 tack iron to the temperature recommended for the covering material being used. Once the iron reaches the set temperature, it’s ready for use. You may find it helpful to test a scrap piece of covering to ensure the temperature setting is appropriate for the task being performed. Often tacking the shrinking is performed at different temperatures.
