SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read these instructions carefully before use.
WARNING!

The product is only intended for hard soldering.

Check that the rated voltage on the type plate corresponds to the mains supply voltage.

Unplug the power cord after use.

Allow the product to cool before putting it away.

Do not leave the product unattended before it has cooled.

Do not put the product down unattended, or on a flammable surface, before it has cooled.

Do not use the product if the power cord or plug is damaged.

Repairs must only be carried out by qualified personnel.

Keep out of the reach of children.

Only use the product for a maximum of 12 seconds and allow to cool for at least 48 seconds,
otherwise there is a risk of overheating. A damaged cord must be replaced by an authorised
service centre or qualified person to ensure safe use.

For general soldering
Soldering paste Applied cold on the surfaces to be joined.
Replaces wire with flux.
Solder and flux
There are two types of solder:
1. Wire
without flux
2. Wire with a flux core.
The flux removes oxide from the surfaces and prevent the formation of oxide during soldering.
Flux is available as paste and in liquid form. Remove residual paste/liquid with a brush or cloth after
soldering. Flux is resin form should not be removed.
Soldering

The surfaces to be soldered must be clean and free from grease.

Do not clean with household detergents – they often contain silicon. Remove oxide coating
mechanically or with a warm solution of 10% citric acid. Do not touch the cleaned surfaces with
your fingers.

Copper tips get an oxide coating when they are heated up. Rub off the oxide against a tip cleaning
block, wet the tip with flux and apply the solder.

The correct temperature has been reached when the solder forms a thin film on the tip. Patches of
solder show that the tip is not sufficiently hot, while drops show that the tip is not clean.

The tip can look corroded after prolonged use. Remove corrosive deposits with sandpaper.
