Cleaning the inside of suction pipe
Move the nozzle cartridge to the cleaning
position indicated in figure at right. Change the
position of the nozzle cartridge before turning
the power ON, to prevent accidents.
To clean the inside of the suction pipe, ensure
that the solder remaining in the pipe has been
completely melted.
For the cleaning of the suction pipe, set the
nozzle temperature to 400°C/750°F or higher.
Start this cleaning after the set temperature has
been reached.
To clean the inside of the suction pipe, insert
the cleaning drill fully into the suction pipe
while turning it clockwise. Then remove the
accumulated debris.
Check and clean the front and back
holder bushings
If foreign matter gets stuck on the contact
surface between the front holder and the filter
pipe assembly, or between the back rubber
holder bushing and the filter pipe assembly,
air will be sucked into the tool, preventing
normal desoldering. Remove the solder and
flux adhering to the surface of front holder
and back holder then connect the filter pipe
assembly.
