Position the tip of the heat gun 2–3 inches above the device.

The exposure time may change depending on the adhesive, temperature, and the distance between the heat gun and the device.

Move the heat gun along the area where the adhesive is located.

Always keep the heat gun in motion, and never leave it over one spot for too long—doing so could damage the device.

If the adhesive that needs softening is small, still keep the heat gun in motion, moving it around in little circles.

Some adhesives require multiple heating and prying cycles in order to loosen. Be patient to get the job done correctly and not quickly.
