• The mains outlet must be located near to the soldering iron station and be easily
accessible.
• Never pull the mains plug from the socket by pulling at the cable. Always pull it
from the mains socket using the intended grips.
• Unplug the mains plug from the mains socket if you do not use the device for an
extended period of time.
• For safety reasons, always unplug the device in case of a thunderstorm.
• Make sure that the mains cable is not squeezed, bent, damaged by sharp edges
or exposed to other mechanical strain. Avoid excessive thermal stress on the
mains cable from extreme heat or cold. Do not modify the mains cable. Otherwise
the mains cable may be damaged. A damaged mains cable can cause a deadly
electric shock.
• Do not touch the mains cable if it appears damaged. First, power down the
respective mains socket (e.g. via the respective circuit breaker) and then carefully
pull the mains plug from the mains socket. Never operate the product with a
damaged mains cable.
• To prevent risks, damaged power cables may only be replaced by the manufacturer,
a professional workshop appointed by the manufacturer, or a similarly qualified
person.
• Never plug in or unplug the mains plug when your hands are wet.
• Do not attach any objects to the soldering iron station, soldering iron or cables.
Never cover the soldering iron station or soldering iron, risk of fire!
•
Never pour any liquids over electrical devices or put objects filled with liquid
right next to the product. If liquid or an object enters the interior of the device
nevertheless, first power down the respective socket (e.g. switch off circuit
breaker) and then pull the mains plug from the mains socket. Do not operate the
product anymore afterwards, but take it to a specialist workshop.
• Never use the product immediately after it has been brought from a cold room
into a warm one. The condensation generated could destroy the product. With
the soldering iron station, there is also a risk of fatal injury from an electric shock!
Allow the device to reach room temperature before connecting and using it. This
may take several hours.
• Warning – do not touch: Hazard of thermal burns caused by the generation of heat
in the soldering iron, soldering tip and molten soldering material.
• Never leave the heated soldering iron unattended; always put it down with the
soldering tip in the supplied spiral holder. Always insert the soldering iron in the
supplied spiral holder before switching it on and after using the soldering iron
station.
• When soldering operations are interrupted, when leaving the working area, and
after completion of soldering operations, the time needed for complete cooling
of the soldering iron and soldering tip to room temperature should be observed.
When the work is interrupted or completed, supervision of the soldering iron
station must be ensured until complete cooling.
• Never submerge the product in water or other liquids. There is a risk of electric
shock!
• If the soldering iron station is damaged, do not touch it; there is a risk of fatal injury
from an electric shock! First, switch off the mains voltage to the mains socket
to which the soldering iron station is connected (switch off at the corresponding
circuit breaker or remove the safety fuse, then switch off at the corresponding
RCD protective switch, so that all poles of the mains socket are disconnected).
Then you can remove the mains plug of the soldering iron station from the mains
socket. Dispose of the faulty soldering iron station in an environmentally friendly
way; do not use it anymore.
• For installations in industrial facilities, follow the accident prevention regulations
for electrical systems and equipment of the government safety organization or the
corresponding authority for your country!
• Warning – hazardous vapours: do not breathe vapours generated during soldering
operations. The vapours are harmful to health. Use an exhaust extraction system
if necessary. Always ensure good ventilation of the working area.
•
Keep a sufficient distance from other heat sources such as hot plates or ovens to
avoid damage to the product.
• Make sure there are no combustible objects or materials near the hot soldering
iron.
• Do not work on live parts.
• Only use the supplied accessories.
• Wear suitable protective clothing, goggles, gloves and sturdy footwear to protect
you from splashing soldering material.
• Soldering material splashing beyond the working area carries an increased risk
of fire, in particular, through delayed smouldering. After splashing of hot soldering
material, the working environment must be monitored for a longer time.
• Allow the product to cool down completely and disconnect it from the power
source before cleaning.
• Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices that are
used or connected in the area where this product is located.
• During soldering operations, unforeseen situations may arise, in which prevention
of unwanted heat build-up is required. Therefore, the working area must always be
well lit. The user must have sufficient freedom of movement.
