IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING!
READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND 
WARNINGS BEFORE OPERATING THIS TOOL. FAILURE TO DO 
SO MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY 
DAMAGE AND WILL VOID WARRANTY.

Electrical: .......................................... 120 V AC, 60 Hz, .07A
Line Cord: ....................................................... 55 in. 2 Prong

1.  Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
2.  Observe work area conditions. Do not use machines or power tools in damp or wet 

locations. Don’t expose to rain. Keep work area well lighted. Do not use electrically 
powered tools in the presence of flammable gases or liquids. Do not bring combustible 
materials near the tools.

3.  Keep children away. Children must never be allowed in the work area. Do not let them 

handle machines, tools, or extension cords.

4.  Store idle equipment. When not in use, tools must be stored in a dry location to inhibit 

rust. Always lock up tools and keep out of reach of children and other untrained 
persons. Switch off all unused electrical tools when stored. Tools are dangerous in the 
hands of untrained users.

5.  Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force a small tool or attachment to 

do the work of a larger industrial tool. Don't use a tool whose performance is not 
adequate for your work. Do not modify this tool and do not use this tool for a purpose 
for which it was not intended.

6  Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in ac-

cordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify 
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician 
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should 
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to 
carry electricity away from the user.

7.  Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the 

other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in 
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install 
a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the 
need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.

8.  Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and 

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded. Do 
not work on electrically live parts. The grip of antistatic designed soldering tools is 
conductive. Do not point the Soldering Gun, or turn yourself toward another person 
while soldering.
