OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS |
| RECEPTACLE |
|
|
•Move slide switch forward to ON position. (Push button will not operate in OFF position of slide switch for your safety.)
•Push button, pilot lamp will glow, tip will start to heat up. In about 10 seconds the tip will heat up to melt the solder.
•When the pilot lamp becomes dark and it takes more than 30 seconds to start solder melting, the batteries may be exhausted. Replace with 3 new batteries.
•Power keeps running while pushing button and is cut off when the finger is off the button. Make sure the finger is off the button right after soldering, otherwise the tip keeps heat on while pushing button. Timely intermittent push on and off cycle will make temperature control possible and battery life will be prolonged.
•To prolong tip life, tin the tip and make sure the slide switch is returned to OFF position when not in use.
