4.
Set the iron to the desired working temperature.
5.
Always return the soldering iron to its stand between uses.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Do not use temperatures in excess of 410° C (770° F) for normal soldering purposes. The device can
be used at higher temperatures for short periods. EXERCISE GREAT CAUTION WHEN DOING SO.
CAUTION
Do not touch the metal parts of the soldering iron while the unit is being used or while it is cooling in
order to avoid burns.

Maintenance
9.1
General Maintenance
Soldering tips can be replaced simply by unscrewing the barrel nut assembly. Turn off the station and
allow it to cool down first. Damage to the soldering station may occur if the system is left on and the
removed tip has not been replaced.
After removing the tip, you should blow out any oxide dust that may have formed in the tip
receptacle. Be careful not to get dust in your eyes. Replace the tip and tighten the screw. Pliers can
be used to avoid contact with hot surfaces BUT SHOULD BE USED WITH CAUTION because over-
tightening may cause damage to the element or fuse the tip to the element.
The outer cover of the iron and station may be cleaned with a damp cloth using small amounts of
liquid detergent. Never submerse the unit in liquid or allow any liquid to enter the case of the station.
Never use any solvent to clean the case.
