Operation
Replacing the Soldering Tip
1. Always let the soldering iron cool down to room temperature before
touching the soldering tip or the heater. There is risk of burns!
2. Loosen the knurled screw by turning counter clockwise and remove
the sleeve. Remove the old soldering tip from the heater and slide
the new or cleaned soldering tip over the heater as far as it will go.
3. Fix the soldering tip to the soldering iron with the sleeve. Tighten
the knurled screw only by hand.
