To avoid the risk of damage to the soldering iron, do not allow it to fall on to the floor – never use a gas soldering iron which shows signs of damage.
Never use the device if it is not airtight, if it is damaged or if it does not function properly.
If gas escapes from the system (smell of gas), take the system outdoors immediately to a well-ventilated location away from sources of ignition where the leak can be safely detected and repaired. Carry out the leak test in the open only. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame, use a gas leak detector spray or soapy water. There is risk of fire or explosion in case of a leak. – Contact the manufacturer or retailer in case of a leak.
Have repairs carried out only by authorised specialist dealers or by the manufacturer.
Work in a fire resistant environment or in the open. Otherwise there is danger of fire, explosion or suffocation.
Always use a heat-resistant and fireproof surface.
Extreme heat is generated above the device. Take special care to avoid burns or fire hazards.
When mounting the hot air attachment, make sure that the lateral outlet opening (16) points upwards. Otherwise the work table or the work piece may be damaged by the escaping heat.
Use the burner only at a clean workplace, well away from inflammable materials, walls or ceilings or oily materials. The soldering iron may not be used in an environment where flammable fumes, flammable liquids or explosive materials are present. Otherwise there is risk of fire or explosion.
WARNING: The gas soldering iron should not be ignited near the face, hands, clothing or inflammable material and the flame should not be directed at others. Otherwise there is risk of burns. Maintain a safe distance of min. 0.5 m on the side from all objects, as well as a min. distance of 1 m from objects over the device.
The air vents on the soldering attachment give off hot air. Ensure that the gas soldering iron is always placed on the integrated stand even during short breaks, to avoid igniting the table surface or other objects. Do not direct the hot air vents towards your eyes, face or others. Otherwise there is risk of burns.
Do not inhale the welding/soldering fumes, as they can be poisonous.
Be aware that the actual size of the flame can be longer than it appears to be. The flame may hardly be visible under certain light conditions – danger of burning!
The burner nozzle, the firing tips and the hot air gun become hot during operation and remain very hot immediately after the flame has gone out. Take care to protect yourself from accidental burns. Do not touch the torch tips!
Ensure that the flame is extinguished completely after use and wait till the soldering iron has cooled completely before storing the iron. Otherwise there is risk of fire.

Before using the tool

Check the gas soldering iron and scope of delivery

Take the gas soldering iron and accessories out of the packaging.
Check if the delivery is complete (see section “SCOPE OF DELIVERY / DESCRIPTION OF PARTS”).
Check whether the gas soldering iron or the accessories are damaged.
Do not use the gas soldering iron if it is damaged or parts are missing. Contact the manufacturer via the service centre.

Filling the gas tank (Figure A-C)

CAUTION! Danger of fire, burning and/or explosion!

Fill the gas tank only in a well ventilated location, preferably outside, away from any sources of ignition, such as open flames, pilot flames, or electric cooking appliances and away from other people.
Turn off the gas soldering iron, make sure the flame is off and do not fill the gas tank until the gas soldering iron has cooled down completely.
Do not smoke while filling the gas tank or while using the gas soldering iron.

CAUTION! Risk of flash fire in case the gas tank is filled improperly and/or overfilled.

Strictly follow the procedure described below.

The best results are achieved with the butane-propane mix Rofill Super 100. Alternatively, even commercial lighter gas (butane) can be used. Make sure you insert the adapter supplied with the gas canister onto the canister nozzle.

If necessary, empty the gas tank by igniting the gas soldering iron and burning off any remaining gas.
Allow the gas soldering iron to cool down completely.
Insert the adapter supplied with the gas canister with side slots (17) onto the canister nozzle.
Place the nozzle of the gas canister on the refill valve (6) of the gas soldering iron and press it. Carry out the filling in just one short burst (max. 1 second) and stop filling as soon as gas flows out of the nozzle.
Remove the nozzle of the gas refill canister out of the refill valve of the soldering iron as soon as the gas begins to flow out. Overfilling the tank will cause the flame to spit.
Wait for at least five minutes each time after filling before igniting the iron for the first time to allow the gas to stabilise.
As with any gas tool, be careful when using the soldering iron.
