Remove the tip and clean every twenty hours of use, or at least once a week, and remove any loose build up
in the barrel.
Do not use fluxes containing chloride or acid. Use only rosin or activated resin fluxes.
Do not use any compound or anti-seize materials
Handle the heated soldering iron with extreme care, as the high temperature of the iron can cause fires or
painful burns.
Never file the specially-plated tip.
Maintenance
This tool must be placed on its stand when not in use.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
Operation
Unpack the soldering station and check all parts. Damaged parts must not be put into operation.
Put the holding rack for the soldering iron sideways in the soldering station, wet the cleaning sponge in the
sponge rack with water.
Put the soldering iron in the holding rack
Place the soldering station on a solid and dry surface.
Connect the mains plug to a socket and turn on the soldering station by using the power switch
(I=ON/0=OFF).When turned on, the power switch is lit
Always put the soldering iron on the holding rack when it is heating up or during breaks from
soldering
Make sure the workbench for soldering is clean
Only use solder for electronics. Acidic solder can damage the soldering tip or the work piece
Regulate the desired temperature of the soldering iron with the adjusting knob.
The color-coded areas are equal to following temperatures:
Yellow
≥
16
0℃
Light Orange 180
℃
to 350
℃
Deep Orange 350
℃
to 450
℃
Red
≥
550
℃
Lower the temperature during breaks, this saves energy and extends the durability of the soldering tip.
Wait for about 10 minutes until the soldering tip reaches the setting temperature, test the temperature by
touching the soldering tip with solder. If the solder melts away easily, you can start soldering.
Tin the hot soldering tip with solder; wipe off excessive solder on the wet cleaning sponge.
Heat up the to-be-soldered part with the soldering tip and add solder.
Wait for the hot solder to cool down.
Clean the soldering tip on the wet sponge after each soldering
After the soldering is done, put back the soldering iron in the rack and turn off the soldering Station at the
main switch.
Do not file off the soldering tip, or it will be damaged.
Never touch the hot soldering tip.
Let the soldering iron cool down after use.
The soldering iron should not be dunked into water
During breaks, the soldering iron has to be placed in the holding rack.
