Default Should that be smoking?

Trying out me so far unused Lidl soldering station.

Read all the instructions, fired it up, waiting a while before tinning the
tip.

Should all that smoke be coming out?

Oh gawd!!!

Forgot to remove the protective plastic cover from the tip of the pointy
soldering bit.

In my defence, M'Lud, it wasn't specifically mentioned in the instructions
(I think).

Won't make that mistake again.

Well, no more plastic tip cover.

Grump.
