Operating instructions Pictograph and symbol explanations In this instruction manual, pictographs are used as hazard notes. Special information or orders and prohibitions to prevent personal in- jury or extensive material damage are supplemented by a pictograph and in the text with hierarchically structured bold words: Warning! Is used to warn of an imminent danger. -
Page 9: Intended Use
Operating instructions Intended use ERSA heating tools may only be used for the processing of soft solder. In special cases, however, if stated explicitly in the operating manual of the respective tool, some tools can also be used to work plastics. If the tool is not used as intended or tampered with, the manufacturer cannot be held liable for any warranty and liability claims on part of the purchaser. - Page 10 Operating instructions Attention! Never leave your hot heating tool unattended. Remember that the tool insert needs a certain amount of time to cool down to a safe temperature even after you have switched the device off. Caution! Keep your workplace tidy. An untidy workplace increases the risk of accidents.
- Page 11 Failure to do this represents a risk of fire or electric shocks. Caution! Look after your heating tool. Always keep your ERSA prod- uct in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children. Pay attention to any maintenance requirements.
