Beware of Steam! The WAGNER SteamForce Pro is designed for safe, fast
removal of wallpaper but you must be aware that steam is produced at 100ºC
so be careful, wear protective clothing and protect your hands with heat-
resistant gloves or mitts.
•
It will take between 10 and 20 minutes for the 230V unit to start producing steam
depending on the t
emperature of the water used. DO NOT leave unattended.
•
Once steam is being produced at the steamplate you are ready to commence
operation. P

When the steam has been produced, lift the steamplate above the level of the tank
outlet t

you may nd it easier to operate with the other hand.

•
Move the steamplate to the section immediately next to where you have just been
w
orking and use a wallpaper scraper to remove the sec
