CAUTION!
Handle the heated soldering iron with extreme care, as the
high temperature of the iron can cause fires or painful bums.
The first time you use the soldering iron, it may smoke
slightly as the heating element dries out. This is normal and
should onty last for approx. 10 minutes.
Never file the specially-plated tip.

MAINTENANCE

This tool must be placed on its stand when not in use.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazard.

TIP REPLACEMENT

Note: Tip replacement or cleaning should be done only when the iron is at room
temperature or below. The tip can be changed or replaced simply by
unscrewing the knurled nut barrel assembly. The station must be switched off
and allowed to cool down before and during this operation, as damage may
occur if the system is left on without the tip inserted. After removing tip
remove any oxide dust that may have formed in the tip retaining area of the
barrel. Be careful to avoid getting dust in your eyes. Replace the tip and screw
the retaining knurled nut barrel assembly using only hand pressure to tighten.
Pliers should only be used to tighten the nut if loosening occur when the iron is
hot to avoid burning your fingers. Do not over tighten as this would damage the
element.
