Safety
Important specific
safety advice
To avoid danger to life from
electric shock:
· Do not operate the device if the mains lead or
mains plug is damaged.
Caution! A damaged mains lead presents a
serious danger to life from electric shock.
· The mains voltage at the mains socket must
match that shown on the rating plate on the
device. Devices marked with 230 V can also be
operated at 220 V. Never use a plug adapter in
the socket that could possibly earth the device.
· Have repairs carried out only by an electrician

or the relevant service centre.
· Do not operate the device if it is damp and do
not use it in a damp environment.
· If you use the device outdoors, always connect
it through a residual current device with a
maximum trip current of 30 mA. If using an ex-
tension lead, always use one that is approved
for outdoor use.
· Always keep the mains lead out of the operat-
ing area and run it away from the rear of the
device.
To avoid the danger of injury:
Danger of burns! Do not touch the heated
soldering tip. You could suffer burn injuries.
· Before carrying out any work on the device
itself, for example, changing the soldering tip,
always pull the plug out of the mains socket
and allow the device to cool.
·
Always wear protective glasses
when using the device. In
addition, it is recommended that you wear protec-
tive gloves, a face mask and a protective apron.
· Before use, always check the device, mains
lead and plug for any damage. If any parts are
damaged, have them fixed or replaced at a
specialist repair centre only.
· Ensure that no vapours that may be hazardous
to health can accumulate when working with
the device for long periods. Always provide
adequate ventilation of your working area.
· Switch on the device each time before you
bring it into contact with the materials to be
soldered.
Using the device safely:
· Before heating the device, check that the
soldering tip is firmly seated - the clamping
Safety

screw must be fully tightened.
· When removing the soldering tip make sure
that the soldering pencil is switched off and do
not use too much force. Slide a new soldering
tip fully in so that it hits the stop.
· Do not heat up the soldering pencil without a
tip in place.
· After use let the soldering pencil cool down in
air only. Under no circumstances quench the
tip in water!
· Place the soldering pencil in the stand during
any pauses in your work.
· Danger of fire! Place the soldering pencil
down only in the special stand or on a fire-
resistant support pad.
· If danger arises, pull the mains plug immedi-
ately out of the mains socket.
· Never use the device for a purpose for which it
was not intended.
· Handle the device carefully and treat it with
respect. Always keep the device clean, dry and
free of oil or grease.
· Remain alert at all times! Watch what you are
doing and always proceed with caution. Do not
use the device if you cannot concentrate or
you are feeling unwell.
Operation
Note the mains voltage. The mains voltage must
correspond with that shown on the sander rating
plate. Equipment labelled as 230 V may also be
used with 220 V.
The soldering pencil PFLK 30, with its nominal
30 watt power rating, is ideal for soldering
electronic components and circuit boards.
Safety/Operation
Manual_UK_Inhalt.indd 10 14.11.2005 9:27:17 Uhr
11 GB
The nominal soldering tip temperature is about
320° C. For best results use electronics solder
1.0 (10 g included with the soldering pencil) or
1.5 mm dia. 60 % Sn. We recommend solder-
ing paste (not soldering grease or soldering
fluid) as a flux.
The design of the soldering pencil makes it
especially suitable for use where access is
difficult or for fine soldering work. The inter-
changeable tips increase the versatility of the
soldering pencil.
Maintenance and care
Attention: Always make sure that the mains
plug is out of the socket before doing any work
on the random orbital sander.
1) Clean the sander frequently; for best results,
do this immediately after you have finished
using it.
2) Do not use sharp objects for cleaning the
random orbital sander. Do not allow any liquids
to enter the random orbital sander. Use a soft
cloth to clean the housing – under no circum-
stances use petrol, solvents or cleaning agents
that attack plastic.
Disposal
The packaging is wholly composed of environmen-
tally-friendly materials that can be disposed of at
a local recycling centre. Please contact your local
council office to find out about disposal facilities for
your worn-out electrical tools.
