conditions, or
- the device has been subjected to heavy stress during
transportation.
Before carrying out cleaning or maintenance on the device, please be
sure to observe the following Safety Instructions:
●
When opening covers or withdrawing parts, live electric components
may be exposed.
●
Therefore, before carrying out any maintenance or repair, the device
must be disconnected from all voltage sources.
●
Even after the device has been disconnected from all voltage
sources, it is always possible that capacitors in the device may still
be charged.
●
Repair may only be carried out by a specialist aware of the
associated risks and familiar with the relevant directives.
●
If it becomes necessary to change a fuse, please note that only
fuses of the type and rated current indicated may be used as
replacements.
●
Makeshift repair of the defective fuse or bridging the fuse holder
are not permitted.
●
The LS 50 is fitted with a slow-blowing fine-wire 1 A fuse. In the
event of a failure, this can be easily exchanged but before doing
so, the device must first be disconnected from the 230 V mains
voltage supply.
To access the fuse the fuse-holder on the underside of the device
must be unscrewed using a screw-driver turning in the direction
indicated by the arrow. Once this is open, the fuse can be removed
and replaced with a new one of the same type. Then carefully
screw the fuse cap back again into the fuse-holder.
Only after this whole process has been completed can the device
be returned to operation.
●
To clean the device use only a dry linen cloth. If the device is
unusually dirty, the cloth may be very slightly moistened. Never
use any cleaning agent that may contain solvents. Ensure that
absolutely no humidity is allowed to penetrate inside the device.
Handling
●
Never switch on your soldering station immediately after bringing
it from a cold room into a warm room. The resulting condensation
may in worst case circumstances actually lead to the device being
damaged beyond repair.
●
Allow the soldering station in its non-switched-on condition to first
attain ambient room temperature.
●
So long as the device is switched on, always ensure that the case
is sufficiently ventilated and never allow the device to be covered
up.
●
Place the soldering station on a flame-resistant, fire-retardant base-
pad in such a way that air can circulate freely in the case.
●
The soldering station must not be placed in a damp, humid location.
It must not be exposed to natural precipitation or splashing water,
to dust, or to prolonged direct sunlight.
●
Avoid subjecting the device to heavy mechanical stress. Do not
place the device on an uneven or unstable base. If the device falls
over, staff might be injured.
●
If you are using the original soldering iron stand LA 50, the soldering
iron must be inserted in the receptacle as far as it will go.
●
The soldering iron attains working temperatures in the range from
150 °C up to 450 °C. Contact with any of its metallic parts may
cause serious burns to people or animals.
Maintenance
●
Check the soldering station at regular intervals with regard to its
technical safety, e.g. Iooking for damage to the mains cable or the
case.
●
If you suspect that the device is no longer safe to use, it must be
kept switched off and secured against being switched on again
unintentionally. The mains plug must be withdrawn from the power
socket.
●
It can be assumed that the device is no longer safe to use if any of
the following applies:
- the device is visibly damaged,
- the device has ceased to function,
- the device has been stored for a long period under unfavourable
