Soldering Safety
• Soldering tools become extremely hot during use. Do not touch any part
of the tool other than the handle
• Switch off and allow the tool to cool completely before attempting to
change any fittings
• Do not leave this tool unattended whilst hot
• Heat may be conducted to hidden areas or materials near to the work
area. Ensure that there are no flammable materials in the vicinity of the
work area
• Residual heat may cause waste material to ignite, even after the tool has
been disconnected from the power supply
• Never use these tools near any kind of fuel tank or gas cylinder
• Soldering with certain materials may result in toxic fumes. Always allow
adequate ventilation. Do not use in confined spaces
• Some types of solder may contain high proportions of lead. Molten lead
emits toxic fumes, always wear good quality appropriate breathing
protection
• Lead fumes are especially toxic to children, pregnant women and people
with high blood pressure. People at high risk should not be allowed near
to the work area
• Always dispose of waste material responsibly
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction
and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards
Power Tool Use & Care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control
g) Use the power tool, 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 power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation
Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using
only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained
