Roger, unfortunately I don't have it here to read the model number. This
past week I've packed up my whole shop in preparation for a move to Florida.
But this looks just like it, from the Howard website. You might have to buy

I would suggest you call Jerry Howard and he can give you all the details.
He may still have videos on using the iron.
