- How it works
The
clean-o-point
®
cleans tips with a remarkable self-cleaning motorized
wiping system that keeps tips clean, prolongs tip life, removes and collects
excess solder. Fast 1 second cleaning with damp sponges means no tem-
perature loss at the tip, no cold solder points to destroy PC boards.

MAINTENANCE
1.
Before using for the first time, wash sponges carefully under
running water.
2.
Rinse sponges under running water once only before begin-
ning the shift, and wring well. If the soldering tips are very
fine, wring more thoroughly. The sponges retain uniform hu-
midity for about 8 hours.
3.
Do not wet the sponges by pouring water over them
in the unit. Overly wet sponges will cause excessive
cooling of soldering tips.
4.
Replace sponges when incrusted with rosin (after about
1 month of all-day shifts).
☞
Sponges are much cheaper than soldering tips !
5.
Empty solder container before starting each 8-hour shift.
Wash and wring sponge rollers well.
☞
Collect solder for recycling !
6.
To clean the soldering tip, insert it with a steady movement
between the wet rotating sponge rollers. Cleaning takes less
than 1 second !
7.
Soldering tips cleaned with
clean-o-point
®
have a service
life
up to 10 times longer than tips cleaned with common flat
sponges.
