1. Introduction


Thank you for buying the GASIRON2! Please read the manual thoroughly before bringing this device into service.
If the device was damaged in transit, don't install or use it and contact your dealer.

2. Exhaust vent
3. Ignition vent
4. Locking ring
5. Stand
6. On/off switch
7. Gas volume control
8. Gas tank
9. Refill valve

3. Assembly


! Always let the GASIRON2 cool down before adding or removing parts.
! Keep a burning or hot GASIRON2 away from flammable materials and other people!
• The soldering head (#1 to 4) can be screwed off by turning the locking ring (#4) counter clockwise.
• When working with the soldering head installed, make sure the locking ring is well fastened and the exhaust vent

(#2) faces up ; if the exhaust vent faces down, it may damage the surface underneath what you are soldering.

• The soldering tip itself (#1) can also be removed by screwing it off.


4. Use

a. Soldering Iron


1. Make sure the exhaust vent (#2) faces up.
2. Set the on/off switch (#6) to the ON position to let the gas flow.
3. Pull the soldering head forward until you can see the nozzle (#10) through the ignition vent (#3). Then light the

gas by bringing an open flame to the ignition vent.

4. Release the soldering head ; the flame will disappear inside the head and will generate heat there.
5. Set the on/off switch (#6) to OFF to extinguish the soldering iron.

b. Gas Torch


1. Remove the soldering head (#1 to 4).
2. Set the on/off switch (#6) to ON to let the gas flow and bring an open flame next to the nozzle (#10).
3. Set the on/off switch (#6) to OFF to extinguish the soldering iron.

c. Hot Blower


Screw the soldering tip (#1) off the soldering head by turning it counter clockwise. Ignition and extinguishing is the
same as for the soldering iron (§4a).
