CHARGING THE BATTERY (FIG 3)
NOTE:
Always Check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on
the ratings plate.
• Connect the charging adaptor (8) and the charging stand (9).
• Plug the adaptor into a 120 Volt AC power source. The GReeN light on the
charging stand will illuminate, indicating the charger is powered.
• Insert the battery (5) all the way into the charging stand until it locks in place
with a click, as shown in FIG 3. The ReD light on the stand indicates that the
battery is charging.
• The light will turn GReeN after charging is complete.
• To remove the battery from the stand, depress the locking tab on the stand
to release the battery pack. See FIG 3.
• Batteries may become warm while charging. This is normal.
• If battery is hot after continuous use in the tool, allow it to cool down to room
temperature before charging. This will extend the life of your batteries.
NOTE:
It takes approximately 3-5 hours to charge up a completely
discharged battery.
IRON HOLDER ASSEMBLY (FIG 4)
This product comes with an iron holder (11) and a plastic base (10). Assemble
them together as shown in FIG 4.
Always place the soldering iron in the iron holder when not in use.
SWITCH ACTION (FIG 5)
To turn on the soldering iron, press the On/Off switch (1) down then push it
forward. The On/Off LeD indicator (2) will light up when the soldering iron is
turned on.
Pull the On/Off switch back to turn off the soldering iron.
NOTE:
It takes approximately 50 seconds to get the soldering iron ready for applications.
WArNING:
parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when not in use. removing the battery pack will
prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury.
USING SOLDERING IRON
• Insert the battery pack and turn on the soldering iron.
• Wait 50 seconds to let the soldering tip reach its highest temperature.
• Hold the soldering iron firmly.
• Apply soldering wire only to the tip of the tool at the point where it touches the workpiece.
• After soldering, place the soldering iron to the iron holder.
• Turn off the soldering iron when you are finished using it.
• Clean the soldering tip as described in the Maintenance section of this manual.
WArNING:
part of the tool. The tip of the tool reaches working temperature within seconds. Always
assume that the soldering tip is hot. Touching a hot soldering tip can result in serious
personal injury.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
While the tip is hot, wipe the tip against a damp sponge or a metallic wool pad to remove debris. Keeping a clean
tip is important to extend the life of the tip and will improve solder melting and flow during use.
