fire, or serious injury.
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1 when assembling parts,
operating the product, or performing maintenance.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
Do not lay a hot soldering iron on its side.
Do not touch the heated tip of the soldering iron.
Use the soldering iron in a well-ventilated area to avoid
breathing fumes.
Do not point the tip of the soldering iron at another
person.
Do not place your hands or fingers near the tip of the

Never leave the soldering iron unattended while it is
in the on position.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate battery products in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Battery products create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
this soldering iron.
Distractions can cause you to lose

Do not allow children to use the soldering iron.
It is
not a toy.
Always assume that the soldering iron tip is hot.
Do not solder live circuits.
Do not disassemble the tool.
The soldering iron tip is sharp.
Do not touch the tip
or allow it to come in contact with anything other than
soldering wire and the workpiece material.
Hold soldering iron by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the tip may
contact hidden wiring.
Tips contacting a “live” wire may
make exposed metal parts of the soldering iron “live” and
could give the operator an electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose battery products to rain or wet con-
ditions.
Water entering a battery product will increase
the risk of electric shock. These fluids can cause battery
pack failure including short-circuit resulting in smoking,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
Use this product only with batteries and chargers list-
ed in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a battery product. Do not use
the product while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication.

tion while operating battery products may result in serious
personal injury.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the on/off but-
ton is in the off position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the product.
Carrying battery products with your finger
on the button or energizing battery products that have
the button on invites accidents.

at all times. Do not use on a ladder or unstable sup-
port.
This enables better control of the battery product
in unexpected situations.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
Do not use the battery product if the on/off button
does not turn it on and off.
Any battery product that
cannot be controlled with the button is dangerous and
must be repaired.
Remove the battery pack from the product before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the product.
Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
