• T he device is not a toy. Keep devices to be operated by mains supply away from
children. Use extreme caution when children are present.
Operate the product out of reach of children.
• T he product is only suitable for use in dry, closed indoor areas.
• The product design complies with Protection Class I.
C onnect the soldering gun to a properly installed earthed mains outlet.
• T he power plug must be easily accessible when plugged in.
• Never pull on the cable to unplug the power plug.
• D o not use the soldering gun in rooms or under adverse ambient conditions, where
combustible gas, smoke or dust are or could be present! There is a risk of explo-
sion!
• D o not fasten any objects to the soldering gun, never cover the soldering gun -this
poses a fire hazard!
• D o not tap off solder remnants from the soldering gun. Doing so may cause dam-
age to the heating element and soldering gun. Use a cleaning sponge suitable for
soldering guns.
T he soldering gun, power cable and power plug may not become moist or wet; use
a sponge, slightly dampened with water, to clean the soldering tip only.
• Never use the soldering gun to heat liquids.
• N ever solder live parts or components. Always switch off voltage beforehand.
C aution! Touching or soldering capacitors (or similar components) or connected
wiring/conductors may result in fatal electric shock! Capacitors may still be charged
even hours after the supply voltage has been turned off!
• U se suitable fasteners to fasten the work piece where necessary. This frees up both
hands for soldering.
• Keep your workplace clean.
• Work only when your workplace is sufficiently ventilated.
Version 08/14
• M ake sure there is sufficient ventilation while soldering. Soldering and flux fumes
may be hazardous to health.
• W ash your hands thoroughly after working with solder. This applies especially when
working with leaded solder.
D o not place solder in your mouth. Do not eat or drink while soldering.
• W ear suitable protective clothing and eyewear while using soldering. Liquid solder,
solder splash, etc. may result in serious burns or damage to eyes!
• N ever use soldering grease, soldering acid or similar soldering aids. The use of
such aids results in weak solder joints and may cause damage to the soldering tip.
The use of tubular solder with flux core is recommended.
• Hold the soldering gun by the handle only while soldering. Risk of burning!
• U se the product only on nonflammable surfaces. Pay attention to any neighboring
materials that might be damaged by heat.
• P lace the soldering gun down on the included stand when it is not required (e.g. dur-
ing breaks or while it is heating/cooling).
• I f the power adapter is visibly damaged, do not touch it. Risk of fatal injury due to
electric shock!
F irst remove the power outlet to which the product is connected from the power
supply (flip off the fuse and/or automatic circuit breaker and then turn off the re-

T hen disconnect the power plug from the mains outlet. Cease use of the product
and take it to a specialist workshop for repair or dispose of it in accordance with
environmental regulations.
• Have maintenance or repairs done by qualified personnel only.
• N ever use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into
a warm one. The condensation generated could destroy the product. There is also

may take several hours.
• A void the following adverse conditions at the location where the product is placed,
and during transport:
- dust or flammable gases, vapors or solvents
- strong vibrations, shocks, blows
