IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The product's tip is sharp. Do not touch the tip or allow
it to come in contact with anything other than soldering
wire and the workpiece material.
Hold product by insulated gripping surfaces, when
performing an operation where the tip may contact
hidden wiring. Tips contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the product "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose battery products to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a battery product will increase
the risk of electric shock. These fluids can cause battery
pack failure including short-circuit resulting in smoking,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
Use this product only with batteries and chargers list-
ed in tool/appliance/battery pack/charger correlation
supplement 999000-174.
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a battery product. Do not use
the product while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating battery products may result in serious
personal injury.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the button is
in the on/off position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
product. Carrying battery products with your finger on
the button or energizing battery products that have the
button on invites accidents.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. Do not use on a ladder or unstable
support. This enables better control of the battery
product in unexpected situations.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long
hair. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
Do not use the battery product if the button does
not turn it on and off. Any battery product that cannot
be controlled with the button is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Remove the battery pack from the product before
making any adjustments, changing accessories or
storing the product. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the product accidentally.
