When you use the HAKKO FX-8803 for the first time, note that calibration is required

before starting operation. Read the instruction manual for the station used in conjunction

with the HAKKO FX-8803 soldering gun. When inserting the solder, push and hold the

trigger upward. Insert the solder until end of solder protrude from the guide nozzle.

1. PACKING LIST AND PART NAMES

Please make sure that all items listed 

below are included in the package.

  

WARNING

Do not touch the tip or metal parts near the tip

Do not allow the tip to come close to, or touch, flammable materials.

Inform others in the area that the unit is hot and should not be touched.

Turn the power off when not in use, or left unattended.

Turn the power off when changing parts or storing the HAKKO FX-8803.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been

given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

● 

Make sure the power switch of HAKKO 

FX-888D station is OFF.

1. Inserting the solder

    Push and hold the trigger upward in the 

    direction of the arrow and insert the solder

    into the solder inlet and pass solder through.

    Solder will protrude from the guide nozzle.

The solder may become stuck inside the unit 

if the trigger is pulled before solder protrudes

from the guide nozzle.

2. Feeding the solder

    Put the trigger back into place after inserting 

    the solder. 

    Solder can be fed by pulling the trigger.

3. Adjusting the guide nozzle.

    Adjust the position where the solder touches the tip.

    Loosen the adjusting screw and move the 

    guide nozzle up or down.

4. Solder feed adjustment

    Adjusting the solder feed pitch by turning the 

   solder feed adjusting screw with a screwdriver.

   Quantity of solder feed will decrease by tightening.

5. Changing to a different solder diameter

    When changing to the different solder diameter, 

    push and hold the trigger upward in the

    direction of the arrow and pull out the solder 

    from the solder inlet.

    Then, insert the new solder as shown in 

    “1. Inserting solder”.

Keep the solder loose (without tension) 

on the solder inlet side at all times 

while soldering.

 

Be sure to turn off the power before connecting 

 

   

or disconnecting the cord assembly for

 

   

the iron to and from the receptacle to avoid 

 

   

damaging the unit.

1. Connect the cord assembly of HAKKO FX-8803 

    to the receptacle of HAKKO FX-888D.

2. Place the soldering gun into the iron holder(option).

3. Plug the power cord into the power supply.

A. Connection

To disconnect, hold the plug.

Push on the plug

until it stops, 

making sure

it is securely 

connected.

receptacle

Turn on the power for HAKKO FX-888D soldering station.

The heater lamp flashes as the tip comes up to the set temperature. 

The unit is now ready to perform soldering work.

 ●

Place the HAKKO FX-8803 in the iron holder when not in use.

 ●

Turn the power off when not using the station for a long time.

Before using the HAKKO FX-8803, be sure to calibrate the station.

(Refer to the HAKKO FX-888D instruction manual.)

Use the HAKKO FG-100 Thermometer or HAKKO FG-101 

Soldering Tester to measure the

 

tip temperature. 

C. Calibration

B. Turn on the power switch

Performing proper and periodic maintenance extends product life and contributes to the

quality of soldering work. Efficient soldering depends upon the temperature, the quality and quantity of 

the solder and flux. Apply the following service procedure as dictated by the conditions of the usage.

High temperatures shorten tip life and may cause thermal shock to components.

Always use the lowest possible temperature. The excellent thermal recovery characteristics

of the HAKKO FX-888D ensures effective soldering at low temperature.

Always clean the tip before use to remove any residual solder or flux adhering to it.

Use a cleaning sponge or the HAKKO 599B tip cleaner.

Contaminants on the tip may have negative effects, including reduced heat conductivity,

which contribute to poor performance.

Never allow the unit to idle at a high temperature for extended periods. This will allow the

tip to become oxidized. Turn the power switch OFF. If it is to be out of service for

several hours, it is advisable to disconnect the power plug as well.

Always clean the tip and coat it with fresh solder after use. This guards against oxidation.

1. Set the temperature to 250℃.

2. When the temperature stabilizes, clean the tip and

    check the condition of the tip. If the tip is badly worn or deformed, replace it.

3. If the solder plated part of the tip is covered with black oxide, apply fresh solder,

    containing flux, and clean the tip again. Repeat until all the oxide is removed,

    then coat the tip with fresh solder.

4. Turn the power OFF and remove the tip, using the heat resistant pad. Set the tip aside to

    cool.

※Specifications and design are subject to change without notice.
※This product is protected against electrostatic discharge.

This product includes such features as electrically conductive plastic parts and grounding of the unit 

as measures to protect the device to be soldered from the effects of static electricity. Be sure to observe 

the following instructions:

1. The plastic parts are not insulators, they are conductors. When making repairs or replacing

parts, take sufficient care not to expose live electrical parts or damage insulation materials.

2. Be sure to ground the unit during use.

NOTE:

Thank you for purchasing the HAKKO FX-8803 Soldering Gun.

This soldering gun has a built-in feeding mechanism that enables soldering with one hand.

Please read this manual before operating the HAKKO FX-8803. 

Keep this manual readily accessible for reference.

CAUTION

Do not use the HAKKO FX-8803 for applications other than soldering.

Do not strike the gun against hard objects to remove excess solder. This will damage the gun.

Do not modify the HAKKO FX-8803.

Use only genuine HAKKO replacement parts.

Do not allow the HAKKO FX-8803 to become wet, or use it when hands are wet.

Remove power and iron cords by holding the plug. not the wires.  

Since smoke is produced when using the wire stripper, be sure the work area is well ventilated.

Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents or damage to the unit.

D. Replacing the tip

1. Turn the nut counterclockwise, then remove

    the tip enclosure and tip.

    

  Do not loosen the nipple.

2. Insert the new tip and tip enclosure 

    into the HAKKO FX-8803.

    Tighten the nut firmly, and fix the tip.

NOTE :

Since the tip can reach a very high temperature, please work carefully.

Except where indicated, always turn the power switch OFF and disconnect the power plug

before performing any maintenance procedure.
