Operation - TOOLCRAFT 1620656 Notice D'emploi

• Do not touch the mains cable or product if there are any signs of damage, as this may cause a fatal
electric shock!
Switch off the mains voltage to the socket containing the power adapter (switch off at the corresponding
circuit breaker or remove the fuse, and then switch off at the corresponding RCD protective switch).
You can then unplug the power adapter from the mains socket.
• If there are any signs of damage, discontinue use immediately. Take the product to a specialist repair
centre or dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner.
• A faulty mains cable may be replaced only by the manufacturer, a service engineer or a similarly qualified
person in order to prevent hazards.
• Do not insert any objects into the ventilation slots on the desoldering station. This may cause a fatal
electric shock!
c) Operation
• Never use the desoldering gun to heat up liquids.
• Never solder live electrical components or parts. Always switch off the power before-hand.
• Do not cover or fasten any items to the desoldering station. Otherwise there is a risk of fire.
• Touching or soldering capacitors (or similar components) or leads/cables that are connected to
capacitors may cause a fatal electric shock! Capacitors may stay charged for several hours after you
switch off the power supply!
• Keep your workstation clean.
• Ensure that there is sufficient lighting.
• Ensure proper ventilation during soldering. Solder and flux vapours can be harmful to your health.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after working with solder.
• Do not put soldering alloys into your mouth. Do not eat or drink during soldering.
• Wear suitable protective clothing and safety goggles when soldering. Liquid/splashing solder may cause
serious burns or eye damage.
• Never touch the metal shaft or the tip of the desoldering gun while working. Otherwise there is a danger
of burning!
• Always solder on non-flammable surfaces. Protect other materials nearby from damage through heat.
• Place the desoldering gun in the stand when not in use.
• Residual solder also builds up on the tip and in the inner tube of the heating element. This residual solder
slows down the heating process and reduce the station's suction power. If you notice a loss in suction
power, replace the cotton filter discs and clean the tip as well as the inner tube of the heating element
with the enclosed cleaning tool.
• If you fail to clean inner tube of the heating element in time after use, residual solder will eventually clog
up the desoldering gun. Solder oxidises at high temperatures and builds up on the inside walls. It will
then also no longer be possible to remove residual solder with the cleaning tool.
• Do not operate the product without the cotton filter discs. One cotton filter disc must always be installed
on the suction opening of the station and on the back end of the glass tube.
