Do not exercise excessive pressure on the tip while soldering, as this may cause damage to the tip.
Never clean the tip with a file or with abrasive materials.
Do not use flux containing chloride or acid. Use only resinous fluxes.
If an oxide film has formed, you should remove it by buffing carefully with a 600 – 800 grit emery cloth or
by using isopropyl alcohol and then applying a new protective layer of solder.
For new tips: set the temperature to 250 °C (482 °F). When the temperature is reached, tin the tip, and
allow it to idle for three minutes. Then set the desired soldering temperature and work normally.
Important:
Remove and clean the tip daily. Remove excess solder from the barrel nut assembly when
installing a new tip, otherwise the tip may be fused to the heating element or to the retaining assembly.

Maintenance
Soldering tips can be replaced simply by unscrewing the barrel nut assembly. Turn off the station and allow
it to cool down first. You can damage the soldering station if you switch it on without the tip in place.
After removing the tip, blow out any oxide dust that may have formed in the tip receptacle. Be careful not
to get dust in your eyes. Replace the tip and tighten the screw. You can use pliers to avoid contact with hot
surfaces
but use with caution
because over-tightening may cause damage to the element or fuse the tip
to the element.
Clean the outer cover of the iron and station with a damp cloth and a small amount of liquid detergent.
Never submerge the unit in liquid or allow any liquid to enter the case of the station. Never use any solvent
to clean the case.
If the iron or station become faulty or, for some reason do not operate normally, return them to the service
department of your authorized dealer or service agent.
