CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Tip Temperature : High temperature shortens tip life
and may cause thermal shock to components. Always use
the lowest possible temperature when soldering.
2. Cleaning : Always clean the soldering tip before use to
remove any residual solder or flux adhering to it.
3. After usage: Always clean the tip and coat it with fresh
solder after use. This guards against oxidation and pro-
longs tip life.
4. System Care: Never allow the unit to stay idle at high
temperature for extended periods. Utilize the automated
sleep feature to conserve energy, pro-long tip and heating
element life. If unit will not be used for long periods it is
advised to power down the unit and unplug from the mains.
5. Inspecting and cleaning the tip:
◆
Set the temperature to 250
o
C.
◆
When the temperature stabilizes, clean the tip and check its
condition. If the tip is badly worn or deformed, replace it.
◆
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.
◆
Never file the tip to remove oxide.
◆
Remaining oxides such as the yellow discoloration on the tip
shaft can be removed with isopropyl alcohol.
