• WARNING – This tool must be placed on the stand when not in use.

General information

• The device is not a toy. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets.

• Do not leave packaging material lying around carelessly. This may become dan-gerous playing material for children.

• Protect the appliance from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong jolts, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, steam and solvents.

• Do not place the product under any mechanical stress.

• If it is no longer possible to operate the product safely, take it out of operation and protect it from any accidental use. Safe operation can no longer be guaranteed if the product:

  • is visibly damaged,
  • is no longer working properly,
  • has been stored for extended periods in poor ambient conditions or
  • has been subjected to any serious transport-related stresses.

• Please handle the product carefully. Jolts, impacts or a fall even from a low height can damage the product.

• Consult an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the appliance.

• Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be completed by a technician or an authorised repair centre.

• If you have questions which remain unanswered by these operating instructions, contact our technical support service or other technical personnel.

• In schools, educational facilities, hobby and DIY workshops, the product must be operated under the supervision of qualified personnel.

• Electrical Safety

• The product is built according to protection class I. It must be powered by a stand-ard earthed mains socket.

• The mains socket that you use to connect the power cable must be easily accessible.

• Before connecting the product, make sure that the mains voltage in your region meets the specifications on the name plate. Only connect the product to the mains socket when it is switched off.

• Do not pull the mains plug from the mains socket by pulling on the cable.

• Do not touch the mains cable or the workstation if there are any signs of damage, as this may cause a fatal electric shock!

• If the mains cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a new mains cable with the same specifications. Stop using the damaged mains cable and dispose of it in an

• environmentally friendly manner. Do not attempt to repair the damaged mains cable.

• 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 workstation, mains cable or power adapter may also cause a fatal electric shock!

• Never work on or solder live electrical components or parts. Always disconnect these components from the power supply beforehand.
  Caution!

• If liquid does enter the workstation, switch off the mains voltage to the socket containing the mains plug (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the safety fuse and then switch off at the corresponding RCD protective switch). You can then unplug the power adapter from the mains socket.

• Discontinue use immediately and take the product to a specialist repair shop or dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner.

Operation

• Never touch the element or tip of the soldering iron. Risk of burns!
• Hold wires to be heated with tweezers or clamps.
• Never use the soldering iron to heat up liquids.
• Never solder live electrical components or parts. Always switch off the power before-hand.
• Do not cover or fasten any items to the soldering iron. Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• Touching or soldering capacitors (or similar components) or leads/cables that are connected to capacitors may cause a fatal electric shock! Capacitors may stay charged for several hours after you switch off the power supply!
• Always solder on non-flammable surfaces. Protect other materials nearby from damage through heat.
• During breaks, set it down on an even and heat/fire resistant surface to cool down; make sure that it cannot roll or fall.
• Risk of fire or explosion! Do not use around or near explosive or flammable ma-terials.
• Turn off the power while taking breaks or finishing using.

Work safety

• Ensure that there is sufficient lighting.
• Ensure proper ventilation during soldering. Solder and flux vapours can be harmful to your health.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after working with solder. This is particularly impor-tant when using lead-based solder.
• Do not put soldering alloys into your mouth. Do not eat or drink during soldering.
• Wear suitable protective clothing and safety goggles when soldering. Liquid/splashing solder may cause serious burns or eye damage.

Setting up

Soldering iron tips

Risk of burns! Allow the tip to cool down before attempting to replace it. Do not overtighten the tip.

• Pointed tip: Used for point soldering and thin wires.
• Flat tip: Used for light electrical work.
• Store any unused tips in the tip holder (5).

Preparing the sponge

Place the sponge (16) into the tray (15) and moisten it slightly before use.

Operation

Always keep the tip tinned before switching off or storing for any period of time.
Do not keep the iron on for an extended period of time as this will break down the surface of the tip.

• Connect the power plug (11) to a mains power outlet.

• Turn the power ON: Flip the power switch (8) to the [ I ] position.
  The LCD display (4) shows the preset target temperature for a few seconds, followed by the actual working temperature of the soldering tip (12).

• Select the required working temperature by:

  • Pressing one of the preset buttons (1), (2), or (3).
  • Pressing the temperature increase [+] (9) or decrease button [-] (10).
    The temperature can be adjusted in 10 °C increments. The working temperature range is 200 to 450 °C.

• Turn the power OFF: Flip the power switch to the [O] position.

• Disconnect the power plug (11) from the mains power outlet, and allow the soldering iron to completely cool down before storing away.

Troubleshooting

Maintenance and care

• Never clean the tip with coarse, abrasive materials like files.
• If oxide forms on the tip, lightly rub with abrasive paper, wipe clean, then immediately reheat and re-tin the tip to prevent oxidation of the wettable surface.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions as they can cause damage to the housing and malfunctioning.
