• When one of the nozzles is attached to the tip of the hot air nozzle, ensure that it is correctly/completely
attached and that it cannot become loose.
• The 4-in-1 rework station is designed to be connected to a mains voltage (see “Technical Data”). Always
connect the 4-in-1 rework station to a standard mains socket (via the mains cable) that is connected to
the public grid.
• Never use the 4-in-1 rework station to heat up liquids or gases.
•
Never point the flow of hot air at the 4-in-1 rework station, mains cable, hose etc. In addition, never point
the flow of hot air at people or animals, as this may cause burn injuries!
• Never work on or solder live electrical components or parts. Always disconnect these components from
the power supply beforehand.
Caution!
Touching or soldering capacitors (or similar components) or leads/cables that are connected to capaci-
tors may cause a fatal electric shock! Capacitors may stay charged for several hours after you switch
off the power supply!
•
Depending on the workpiece or soldering/desoldering method, the workpiece must be fixed in place with
a suitable clamping device. This enables you to use both hands for the soldering/desoldering process.
• Always keep the hot air nozzle in the holder when it is not in use.
• Keep your work area clean.
•
Ensure that there is sufficient lighting.
•
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when soldering. Solder and flux vapours can be harmful to
your health.
The same applies when the product is used as a hot air gun (e.g to shrink heat-shrink tubing); this may
also result in the release of toxic or harmful gases.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after working with solder.
• Do not put solder into your mouth or eat or drink when you are soldering.
• Wear suitable protective clothing and safety goggles when soldering/desoldering. Liquid/splashing sol-
der may cause serious burns or eye damage.
•
Never use soldering flux, acid or similar aids when soldering. These chemicals can cause a poor solder
-
ing joint. For best results, use a solder wire with a flux core or a suitable SMD solder.
• Never touch hot parts (hot air nozzle, soldering/desoldering iron etc.); risk of burns!
• Only replace the nozzle when it has cooled down completely.
•
Always solder on non-flammable surfaces. Ensure that there are no neighbouring materials that may be
damaged by the heat generated from the soldering iron.
• Only use the product in temperate climates. It is not suitable for use in tropical climates. Refer to the
“Technical Data” section for information on the permitted ambient conditions.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room into a warm one. This may
generate condensation, which can cause the product to malfunction or damage the interior components.
Moisture on the 4-in-1 rework station, mains cable or mains plug may also cause a fatal electric shock!
