IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

9.  When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or "W”. 

These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk of electric shock.

10.  Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will 

increase the risk of electric shock.

11.  Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools or pull 

the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or 
moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged Power Cords 
increase the risk of electric shock.

12.  Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any adjust-

ments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures 
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

13.  Do not overload your soldering tool. Use the soldering tool only with the specified 

voltage or specified pressure range.

14.  Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a 

power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alco-
hol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in 
serious personal injury.

15.  Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in 

moving parts. Protective, electrically non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear 
are recommended when working. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair. 
There is a danger of burning yourself with liquid solder. Wear the corresponding 
protective clothing in order to protect yourself against burns.

16.  Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in. Carry-

ing power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools with 
the Power Switch on, invites accidents.

17.  Remove adjusting keys, wrenches or other maintenance tools before turning the 

power tool on. A wrench, key or maintenance tool that is left attached to a part of the 
power tool may result in personal injury.

18.  Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety 

shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. When 
working with bonding agents, it is particularly important to observe the warning 
notices of the bonding agent manufacturer. Protect yourself against spattering solder. 
There is a danger of burning yourself with liquid solder. 

If devices for solder vapor 

suction is available, ensure that these are connected and correctly used. Do not 
breathe soldering fumes. Never breathe soldering fumes as they may  make you ill.

19.  Work Safe. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or across 

running machines, hoses, etc. Never leave the Soldering Gun unattended when it is 
plugged into an electrical outlet. Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet 
before leaving. Never lay the Soldering Gun down where the heated parts can contact 
flammable materials or electrical wires. Always unplug the Soldering Gun from its elec-
trical outlet before performing and inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

 WARNING! People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before using 

this product. Operation of electrical equipment in close proximity to a heart pace-
maker could cause interference or failure of the pacemaker.

20.  Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, us common sense. Do not operate any tool 

when you are tired.
