Always disconnect mains power when the device is not in use
or when servicing or maintenance activities are performed.
Handle the power cord by the plug only.
Caution!
After switching off,
leave the power cord plugged
in
for a few minutes. When you switch off the unit, the
automatic cooling function blows cooling air through the heater
pipe for a short period. This protects the heater from damage
and extends its lifetime. Do not disconnect the mains plug
during this cooling process.
Indoor use only
. Keep this device away from rain, moisture,
splashing and dripping liquids. Never put objects filled with
liquids on top of or close to the device.
Do not use near inflammable products or in explosive
atmospheres. Heat can cause fire to inflammable products
even when they are not in sight. Only use in properly
ventilated rooms.
Incorrect use may cause fire.
Do not touch the shafts, tips, or hot air gun as this can cause
serious burns. Keep the tips and hot air away from the body,
clothes, or other flammable material. Do not aim the hot air
gun at the eyes. Use gloves and/or heat-resistant tools to pick
up the PCB assembly to prevent burns. Always return the irons
and gun to their stands between uses; always let the device
cool down after use and before storage.
Place the device on a level, stable, and fire resistant working
surface.
Do not inhale solder fumes. The vapours that are released
during soldering are harmful. Therefore, you shall only use the
soldering station in well-ventilated areas or under an exhaust
hood (solder fume extractor). Dispose of fume filters and
solder residue in accordance with local regulations.
Never use the device on live electronic circuits. Make sure
power to the work piece is cut and capacitors are discharged.
Do not block the hot air gun nozzle. This may cause heat
reflection and may damage the heating element.
Warning!
This tool must be placed on its stand when not in
use; do not leave the tool unattended when switched on.
Use the soldering iron on a heatproof workbench.
Place the soldering iron in its holder after use.
