WARNING Electrical shock
Protect yourself against electric shocks. The handles on
soldering tools with an antistatic design are conductive.
Avoid touching earthed objects such as pipes, heaters,
•
cookers and refrigerators.
Do not use the soldering tool in a damp or wet environment.
•
Never work on voltage-carrying parts.
•
WARNING Risk of burns
The soldering tip becomes very hot during soldering
work. There is a risk of burns from touching the tips.
After the soldering process, the soldering tool and the
workpiece holder are still hot.
Always place the soldering tool in the safety rest while not
•
in use. Make sure the safety holder is stable.
Do not touch the hot soldering tips and keep them away
•
from inflammable objects..
Only replace solder tips when cold
•
Only replace nozzles when cold
•
Risk of burning through liquid solder. Protect yourself
against solder splashes.
Wear appropriate protective clothing to protect yourself
•
against burns. Protect your eyes by wearing eye protection.
When working with adhesives, special attention must be
•
paid to the warning information provided by the adhesive
manufacturer.
Only connect the vacuum and hot air at the designated
•
points.
Store your soldering tool in a safe place. When not in use,
units and tools should be stored in a dry, high or locked area
out of the reach of children. Make sure that unused soldering
tools are free of voltage and de-pressurised.
Do not use the cable for purposes other than those for
which it is intended. Never carry the unit by the cable. Do
not use the cable to pull the plug out of the socket. Protect
the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges.
Be alert. Pay attention to what you are doing. Be smart
when using the unit. Do not use the soldering tool if you are
having difficulty concentrating.
Avoid abnormal posture. Arrange your work station in an
ergonomically correct way. Avoid bad posture when using the
unit, as this can lead to postural problems.
The soldering tool must be operated only in perfect
technical working order. Safety devices must not be
deactivated.
Faults and defects must be repaired immediately.
Before using the unit / tool, safety devices must be carefully
checked to make sure that they are functioning properly and
in the manner intended. Check that moving parts are func-
tioning properly and are not sticking, and whether parts are
damaged. All parts must be correctly fitted and must satisfy
all the requirements necessary to guarantee troublefree
operation of the unit.
Use the correct tool. Use only accessories or auxiliary de-
vices which are included in the list of accessories or appro-
ved for use by the manufacturer. Use WELLER accessories
or auxiliary devices on original WELLER equipment only. The
use of other tools and other accessories can cause injury.
Secure the tool. Use clamping fixtures to hold the
workpiece.
Use a solder fume extraction unit. If appliances for
connecting solder fume extraction units are available, ensure
that they are connected and used properly.
