• Failure to follow all the instructions and safety instructions can result in a risk of personal injury and/or material damage.
• Wear approved safety glasses or a visor that complies with the requirements in ANSI Z871 when working with or maintaining the product. This reduces the risk of serious personal injury.
• Never put the soldering iron directly on a table or bench before it has cooled — use the supplied stand.
• Do not touch the soldering iron before it has cooled — the risk of burn injury.
• Only use the product in a well-ventilated area —the risk of inhaling harmful fumes and gas.
• Do not point the soldering iron at people or animals.
• Keep hands and fingers away from the soldering tip.
• Never leave the product unattended when switched on.
• Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Dark and cluttered work areas increase the risk of accidents and injuries.
• Do not use the product in explosive environments, for example near flammable liquids, gas or dust. Power tools produce sparks that can ignite dust and fumes.
• Keep children and onlookers at a safe distance when using the product. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
• Do not allow children to use the product. The product is not a toy.
• A soldering tip should always be assumed to be hot!

• The soldering tip is sharp. Do not touch the soldering tip or allow it to come in contact with anything other than the solder and the workpiece.
• Hold the soldering iron by the insulated grips when working where the tip could come into contact with concealed electrical cables or its own power cord. If the tip comes in contact with a live wire the metal parts on the product will also become life — the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cookers, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
• Do not expose the product to rain. There is a greater risk of electric shock if water gets into a power tool. Water can also short circuit and destroy the battery and cause a fire.
• Do not immerse the product or charger in water or any other liquid — risk of electric shock.
• Do not place or store the product where it could drop, or be pulled down into a bath or washbasin.
• Stay alert. Pay attention to what you are doing, and use your common sense when working with power tools. Never use the product if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. Remember that a fraction of a second of inattention or negligence can result in serious personal injury.
• Avoid accidental starting. Check that the power switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the plug or battery, or lifting/ carrying the product. Carrying a power tool with your finger on the switch or connecting a tool to the mains supply when the switch is in the ON position increases the risk of accidents and injuries.
• Do not overreach. Always maintain a firm footing and good balance. Do not stand on ladders or other unstable surfaces. This ensures better control over the product in unexpected situations.
• Do not wear loose-fitting clothing or jewelry. Wear a hair net if you have long hair. Loose-fitting clothing, jewelry and long hair can come in contact with the hot soldering tip.
• Do not use the power tool if it cannot be switched on and off with the power switch. Power tools that cannot be controlled with the power switch are dangerous and must be repaired.
• Remove the battery pack from the tool before adjustments, replacing accessories or putting it into storage. These safety precautions reduce the risk of accidentally starting the product.
• Store power tools out of the reach of children when not in use. Never allow children or anyone who is unfamiliar with the power tool and these instructions, to use the tool. Power tools are dangerous if used by inexperienced persons.
• Maintain power tools. Check that moving parts are properly adjusted and do not jam and that no parts are incorrectly fitted or damaged. Check for other factors that could affect functionality. If the product is damaged it must be repaired before using it again. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
• Use the power tool, accessories, and bits, etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the actual working conditions and the work that is to be done. It can be dangerous to use the equipment for purposes other than those it is intended to be used for.
• Only charge the battery with the charger recommended by the manufacturer. The use of other chargers can result in a risk of personal injury and/or fire.
• Only use batteries recommended by the manufacturer. The use of other batteries can result in a risk of personal injury and/ or fire.
• When the battery is not in use keep it away from metal objects such as paperclips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects that can short circuit the terminals. Short-circuiting discharges large amounts of energy that can cause a fire and/or burn injuries.
• Failure to handle the battery carefully can cause fluid to leak from the battery. Avoid contact with battery fluid. On contact with battery fluid, rinse immediately with plenty of fresh water. Seek medical attention if you get battery fluid in your eyes. Battery fluid can cause skin irritation and/or burns.
• Battery-powered tools do not need to be connected to a power point to be ready to be used. Pay attention to any risks when handling battery-powered tools, replacing accessories, etc. This reduces the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or serious personal injury.
• Do not expose battery-powered tools to heat — the risk of explosion and/or personal injury.
• Do not subject the battery to knocks or blows. Do not use the battery or charger if it has been subjected to knocks or blows. Damaged batteries can explode. Dispose of damaged batteries in accordance with local regulations.
• The close vicinity of sources of heat, for example, a pilot flame, can result in a risk of the battery exploding. To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, never use cordless products in the vicinity of naked flames. An exploding battery can eject material and chemicals. On skin or eye contact with battery fluid, rinse immediately with plenty of fresh water.
• Do not charge battery-powered tools in damp or wet areas. Do not use, store or charge batteries in areas with a temperature less than 10°C or higher than 38°C. Do not store outdoors or in a vehicle.
• A small amount of fluid can leak from the battery during extreme use, or in extreme temperatures. If you get battery fluid on your skin or clothes, wash immediately with soap and water. If you get battery fluid in your eyes, rinse your eyes with clean water for at least10 minutes and then seek medical attention immediately. This reduces the risk of serious personal injury.
• The product must only be serviced by qualified personnel using identical spare parts. This will ensure that the machine remains safe to use.
• Save these instructions. Read these instructions carefully before use, and save them for future reference. Persons who are not must not familiar with these instructions must not use the product. These instructions should be enclosed with the product if it is sold or passed on.
