GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the Dremel VersaFlame, make sure you read and
understand this manual completely.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in fire
and/or serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. WORK AREA
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas
invite accidents.
b. Do not keep combustible materials near the tool.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating the tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
d. Only use the tool outdoors or in well-ventilated rooms.
2. PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating the tool. Do not use the tool while
you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as a dust
mask, non-slip safety shoes, hard hat and hearing
protection used for relevant conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
d. Dress properly. There is a danger of burning yourself with
the flame or with liquid soldering tin. Wear protective
clothing to protect yourself against burns. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from the flame. Loose clothes or
long hair can catch fire.
e. Secure the workpiece. Use a clamping device to hold the
workpiece. This allows you to use both hands to operate the
tool.
f. Keep this manual for future reference.
g. Do not use the appliance when it is leaking (gas smell),
shows any sign of damage or is malfunctioning.
h. If the appliance is leaking (gas smell) immediately take
it outside and check the leak-tightness without a flame.
Always use soapsuds. (Re)filling the gas tank must be
done in a well-ventilated place far away from any possible
sources of ignition, open flames, pilot lights, electrical
cookware and away from other persons. Be sure to observe
the safety instructions and warning notices on the refill
container. Do not make any modifications to the tool.
i. Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos is
considered carcinogenic).
j. Take protective measures when during work dust can
develop that is harmful to one's health, combustible or
explosive (some dusts are considered carcinogenic); wear
a dust mask and work with dust/ chip extraction when
connectable.
3. TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Store your tool in an appropriate place with an ambient
temperature between 10°C and 50°C. Allow your tool to fully
cool down before storing. Unused tools should be stored away
from children in a dry location. Switch off all unused tools.
b.
Always switch off the tool and allow it
to fully cool down before attaching or
removing the accessories or before cleaning.
c.
Extremely flammable gas under
pressure.
d.
Do not use near sparks or an open
flame.
e.
Do not puncture or incinerate the gas
tank or store at a temperature above
50ºC.
f.
Keep out of reach of children.
g.
Do not try to disassemble this unit.
4. SERVICE
a. Have your tool serviced by a qualified repair expert using
only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPOSAL
The tool, accessories and packaging should be sorted for
environment-friendly recycling.

GENERAL
The Dremel VersaFlame is a high quality tool that can be used
for hard or soft soldering. It can also be used to heat up and/or
ignite flammable and non-flammable materials. The Dremel
VersaFlame emits an adjustable flame with a temperature of up
to 1200°C. It has an integrated ignition mechanism.

(RE)FILLING THE GAS TANK
The Dremel VersaFlame may only be filled and operated with
liquid butane gas. Make sure the gas you are using is refined
butane gas that can also be used for lighters.
1. Hold the tool and the gas refill container as shown in
Figure 2.
2. Fill the gas tank with liquid butane gas observing the
instructions on the refill container. The gas tank is full when
liquid butane gas escapes through the filling valve. In that
case, there is no more air present in the gas tank.
DO NOT OVERFILL THE GAS TANK!
GETTING STARTED
USE
Familiarize yourself with the components of the Dremel VersaFlame
(see Figure 1).
The Dremel VersaFlame is equipped with a child-safety
mechanism. This mechanism requires a two-step operation to
protect against accidental ignition.
To switch on and operate the Dremel VersaFlame, follow the steps
in Figure 3.
NOTE: The air control lever must be in the open position (Figure
3a). The lock button must be in the forward position for the tool
to be able to ignite (Figure 3b).
1. Hold the Dremel VersaFlame in one hand.
2. With your other hand move the child-safety lock to the left
(Figure 3c).
3. Slowly press the ignition button and hold it down (Figure 3d).
4. When using the catalyst: Close the air control lever for
2 seconds and re-open it to prevent the catalyst from being
overheated (Figure 3e).
NOTE: After ignition, make sure that the tool is switched on
by checking that the catalyst starts to glow.
5. To switch off the Dremel VersaFlame, release the ignition
button. This will immediately shut off the flow of butane gas.
If the Dremel VersaFlame is to be used continuously for a
prolonged period of time, holding down the ignition button can
become uncomfortable. To operate the Dremel VersaFlame
continuously, follow the steps in Figure 4.
1. Switch on the Dremel VersaFlame as described above.
2. Slide the lock button backward (Figure 4a) and release the
ignition button (Figure 4b).
3. To switch off the Dremel VersaFlame, slide the lock button
forward. This will immediately stop the flow of butane gas.
USING WITH AN OPEN FLAME
The Dremel VersaFlame can only be used with an open flame if
the catalyst is removed.
FLAME LENGTH AND
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Move the flame control lever forward to increase the flame
length and temperature, or backward to decrease the flame
length and temperature.
When using an open flame, the Dremel VersaFlame is at the
desired temperature immediately after ignition.
Please allow ± 25 seconds of heat-up time for the soldering tip.
USING THE ACCESSORIES
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE TOOL AND
ALLOW IT TO FULLY COOL DOWN BEFORE
ATTACHING OR REMOVING ACCESSORIES.
The Dremel VersaFlame is delivered with a catalyst, a soldering
tip, a flame extension piece and a deflector.
CATALYST (Figure 1 part 2)
The catalyst generates hot air of 680°C: Used for melting
plastics and other heat-sensitive materials.
1. Slide the narrow part of the catalyst into the burner. Make sure
the slot of the catalyst is aligned with the white indicator
mark. See Figure 5.
2. To remove the catalyst, slide it out of the burner.
