4.
Set “Temperature control knobs” to “MIN”.
5.
Switch “Mains power switch” to “ON” position, then switch both “SOLDER &
DESOLDER” switches to “ON” position, both pilot lamps will be “ON”.
6.
Tin the surface of both soldering and desoldering tips by applying a new covering
of solder to protect it.
7.
Set both “Temperature control knobs” to the desired temperature about 3 minutes
after being warmed. The unit will be ready for use once it reaches preset
temperature – indicated by the pilot light going off.
8. A slide switch below the digital display allows the operator to toggle between
Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature readout.
9. You can preset the temperature setting by pushing the slide switch to “SET”
position. Use the temperature controlled knob to set the desired temperature.
Then slide the switch to “READ”. The temperature will then maintain a +/-3
℃
(+/-5
℉
) with the display showing actual tip temperature.
PLEASE NOTE:
1.
Both soldering, desoldering irons can be used at same time.
2.
If LF-8000 is idle for more than 15 minutes, an energy saving feature will
automatically engage (evident by the green “PUASE” indicator light), reducing
idle temperature by 1/3 and extending your tip life. Activating he red suction
button on the desolder handle will disengage the power saving feature and the unit
will immediately ramp up to the preset temperature.
CUATION:
Do not touch any of the irons at any time while the unit is on or while it’s
cooling as they will still be hot.
NEW FEATURE FOR LF-8000
There is a calibration port on the front panel for both soldering and desoldering under
the digital readout. This calibration is to be used in conjunction with an external
thermometer. Place the tip on the thermometer, if the actual tip temperature reads
higher or lower than the display on the thermometer temperature, then using a
2mm precision screwdriver to calibrate the temperature. Both
soldering
and
desoldering
sides if turning clockwise that the actual tip temperature will be up
(+). Counter clockwise will let the tip temperature down (-).
