- Never pull the mains plug from the socket by pulling at the cable. Always pull it from the mains socket using the intended grips.
- For safety reasons, always unplug the device during thunderstorms.
- Make sure that the mains cable is not squeezed, bent, damaged by sharp edges or subjected to mechanical stress. Avoid excessive thermal stress on the main cable from extreme heat or cold. Do not modify the main cable. Failure to adhere to these instructions may lead to damage of the mains cable. A damaged mains cable can cause a deadly electric shock.
- Do not touch the main cable if it is 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 use the product if the main cable is damaged.
- 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 connect or disconnect power plugs when your hands are wet.
- Always lay the cables so that nobody can trip over or become entangled in them. Risk of injury.
14.4 Usage
- Never touch the barrel or tip of the soldering iron during use. There is a risk of burns!
- Never use the soldering iron to heat up liquids.
- Never solder live electrical components or parts. Always switch off the power beforehand.
- 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.
- Risk of fire or explosion! Do not use around or near explosive or flammable materials.
Turn the power off and place the soldering iron on the stand while taking breaks or not using the device.
14.5 Work safety
- Only work with sufficient lighting at your workstation.
- Ensure proper ventilation during soldering. Solder or solder flux can be harmful.
- Wash your hands thoroughly after working with the solder. This is particularly important when using lead-based solder.
- Do not put soldering alloys into your mouth. Do not eat or drink during soldering.
