Special safety instructions

Caution! Risk of fi re! When put-

ting the soldering iron down,

make sure that the hot tip does not

come into contact with combustible

materials. Do not leave the device un-

attended while it is hot. Allow it to

cool down before you store it away.

The soldering tip reaches tempera-

tures of over 400 °C. Touching the

metal parts can cause severe burns.

The device must always be placed

on a non-combustible surface

when it is not in use. There is a poten-

tial fi re hazard

• Always turn the device on before it

comes into contact with the material

that is to be worked on.

• Vapours which are harmful to health

are produced during the soldering

process and when working on plas-

tics. Ensure good ventilation or suita-

ble vapour removal.

• Protect your eyes with safety gog-

gles and your body with suitable

working clothes against solder

splashes and corrosive vapours.

• The device must never be used for

heating up liquids or plastics.

• Never leave the device unattended

when it is switched on.

• CAUTION! This tool must be

plugged into the station when it is

not in use.

• Ask our service centre to carry out any

work that is not described in these in-

structions. Use only original parts.

• This device contains batteries that

JLH100501700B1.

SPECIAL SAFETY DIRECTIONS
FOR BATTERY-OPERATED TOOLS

a) Recharge the batteries indoors only

because the battery charger is de-

signed for indoor use only.

b) To reduce the electric shock hazard,

unplug the battery charger from the

mains before cleaning the charger.

c) Do not subject the battery to strong

sunlight over long periods and do

not leave it on a heater.

Heat dam-

ages the battery and there is a risk

of explosion.

d) Allow a hot battery to cool before

charging.

e) Do not open up the battery and avoid

mechanical damage to the battery.

Risk of short circuit and fumes may be

emitted that irritate the respiratory tract.

Ensure fresh air and seek medical assis-

tance in the event of discomfort.

f) Do not use non-rechargeable bat-

teries!

CORRECT HANDLING OF THE

BATTERY CHARGER

Children shall not play with the

appliance. Cleaning and user main-

tenance shall not be made by chil-

dren without supervision.

•

Use the charger only on a socket

with a a residual current device

(RCD) with a rated residual current

of 30 mA or less.

•

Before each use, check the charg-

er, cable and plug and have them

repaired by qualifi ed professionals

and only with original parts.

not use a defective charger and do

not open it up yourself. This ensures

that the safety of the device is main-

tained.

•

Connect the charger only to a socket

with an earth. Ensure that the mains

voltage matches the specifi cations

on the charger rating plate.

Risk of

electric shock.

•

Disconnect the charger from the

mains before closing or opening

connection to the battery / power

tool / device.

•

Keep the charger clean and away from

wet and rain. Do not use the charger

outdoors.

the appropriate original batteries.

Charging other batteries may result

in injuries and risk of fi re.

•

Avoid mechanical damage to the

charger.

This can result in internal

short circuits.

•

ing charged.

• The device may only be powered with SELV

(Safety Extra Low Voltage) as indicated by
the label on the appliance.

• Charge the battery installed in the device

before using it for the fi rst time.

• To safely charge the Li-ion battery integrat-

ed in the device, use only power adapter
JLH100501700G1/ JLH100501700B1,
which you can purchase from our online shop.

• Recharge the battery when the heat output
