Tip Maintenance
Suitable soldering tips can be found under item number 960- at
www.quick-tools.de.
1) When a new tip is used for the first time, set 250 to 280°C to protect the tip with solder.
2) Select the tip size according to the size of the solder joint.
3) To prevent tip oxidation, a fresh layer of solder should be plated before putting back
into the soldering iron holder.
4) There should not be too much water in the cleaning sponge to get a good cleaning effect
on the tip and to avoid rapid temperature drop of the tip. Using a dry & cleaning sponge
will damage the tip and cause no tinning.
5) After the tip is improperly oxidized by use, do not clean the surface plating by grinding.
Please use metal wire or resurrection paste to clean the tip at low temperature
(250~280℃
)
.
6) Do not apply heavy force to the tip when soldering and avoid using tin to the same
place.
7) Use low-temperature soldering as much as possible. Generally, the soldering
temperature is controlled at 320
~
380℃. If you need to set a high temperature to solder,
please analyze whether the soldering station and tip are matched, and then perform
soldering.
