IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE
Before using your soldering gun for the first time please read the section "Working safely".
Before every use check that the soldering gun is in proper operating condition; does the power
supply match the requirements, is the solder about to run out or is it broken?
The size of the soldering tip must be suitable for the size of the soldered joint.
The soldering tip must be free of contaminants. A small wet sponge is ideal for cleaning it
Make sure that the joint surfaces to be soldered are bright, clean metal. There must be no dirt
and oxide coating present. If necessary clean the soldering site with alcohol.
The strength of the soldering site must be greater than the solder.
Use the general solder/ tin solder sparingly. Remember - a site that has been soldered before
cannot be made free of solder residue.
This soldering gun is intended for home use only.
