WARNING
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
Know your product. Read operator's manual carefully.
Learn its applications and limitations, as well as the
specific potential hazards related to this product.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1 when assembling parts,
operating the product, or performing maintenance.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious personal
injury.
Do not lay a hot soldering iron on its side.
Do not touch the heated tip of the soldering iron.
Use the soldering iron in a well-ventilated area to
avoid breathing fumes.
Do not point the tip of the soldering iron at another
person.
Do not place your hands or fingers near the tip of the
soldering iron.
Never leave tool running unattended. Remove the
battery pack.
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate battery products in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Battery products create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating
this soldering iron. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Do not allow children to use the soldering iron. It is
not a toy.
Always assume that the soldering iron tip is hot.
Do not solder live circuits.
Do not disassemble the tool.
The soldering iron tip is sharp. Do not touch the tip
or allow it to come in contact with anything other than
soldering wire and the workpiece material.
Hold soldering iron by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the tip may
contact hidden wiring. Tips contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the soldering iron "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose battery products to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a battery product will increase
the risk of electric shock. These fluids can cause battery
pack failure including short-circuit resulting in smoking,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
Do not place liquids or wet objects on top of the
device.
Use this product only with batteries and chargers list-
ed in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 995000850.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a battery product. Do
not use the product while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating battery products may result
in serious personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Do not use on a ladder or unstable sup-
port. This enables better control of the battery product
in unexpected situations.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can contact a
heated nozzle.
Do not use the battery product if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any battery product that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Remove the battery pack from the product before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the product. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
Store idle products out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the product or
these instructions to operate the product. Battery
products are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain battery products. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the product's oper-
ation. If damaged, have the product repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
battery products.
Use the battery product, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the product for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
