SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO OPERATOR
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Read and understand this owner’s
manual before using soldering gun. Unsafe
operation and improper maintenance can cause
burns to body or eyes, electric shock, health
issues, damage to the tool, fire, or explosion.
!
WARNING: Some Craftsman Soldering Guns are
provided with solder. This solder may contain
metals or chemicals that may be toxic if inhaled.
Do not inhale dust, smoke, or fumes when
operating.
!
WARNING: To avoid injury, do not use tips
containing copper with following soldering guns:
54044, 54045, 54046 and 54047. Use only Craftsman
tips specified.
!
WARNING: Solder containing lead must never be
used for plumbing applications. This soldering gun
is not intended for plumbing connections and, if
used for this application, will likely result in poor
quality plumbing joints.
!
1.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not
modify the plug in any way.
2.
Arrange a secure resting place on your worktable where
the tip will never contact a flammable surface, your body,
or the power cord. With a peak temperature of about
1000°F, the tip may remain hot for several minutes after
you release the trigger switch.
3.
To reduce the risk of burns, remove excess hot molten
solder from the tip by wiping with a damp cloth, damp
sponge, or solder brush made for that purpose. Never
swing the gun.
4.
To protect eyes from splatter, wear safety goggles
meeting requirements of ANSI Z87.1 (shown on safety
goggle package).
5.
To reduce the risk of destroying the tool, observe the
20% “On” time duty cycle rating of a soldering gun. This
rating means a maximum of 1 minute of “On” time over
5 minutes total time. Never tie down the trigger switch.
6.
To reduce the risk of respiratory, eye, or skin irritation,
keep your head out of the soldering fumes.
7.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, injury, or
explosion, work only in surroundings that are dry, and are
free from flammable materials including vapors and liquids.
8.
After use, unplug the power cord and let tip cool down.
Store soldering gun in a dry secure place, out of the
reach of children.
