^ NOTE: To set the CAL temperature correction value, follow steps 1 and 2 first, and then step 4 to adjust the value
in degrees Celsius, ending with step 5 to ENTER the determined value, whether it be positive or negative. The CAL
range is ‐99 to zero to +99 and once set for a correct value, it applies to all preset channels and CH0 i.e. always on.
NB: This function requires a special soldering iron thermometer to work correctly. This thermometer is not
currently one of the optional accessories for this model.
TEMPORARY POWER DOWN MODE
Press the white button on the right side of the touchscreen for at least 3 seconds.
In this state, the heating element is manually disengaged and cooling begins, as indicated by the presence of the
‘snowflake’ on the left of the screen.
As the iron cools down, once it reaches below 100°C, the icon will change to
a half moon icon for sleep
and the
station will be idling. It will remain in this temporary power down state indefinitely, until the user presses the
white button or any other arrow button, at which point the heater will reactivate and return to the previous
temperature setting.
CAUTIONS:
REMEMBER, THE TIP IS HOT!
-
The tip and barrel of the solder wand will cause serious burns if they are allowed to contact skin. Always
return the solder wand to the safety holder after each use.
DO NOT WORK ON LIVE CIRCUITS
-
Before working on any mains powered equipment, make sure that it is turned off, and the mains plug is
removed from the power point.
DO NOT USE IF DAMAGED
-
If the power lead becomes damaged or the soldering station becomes faulty, discontinue use immediately. To
comply with safety standards, the power lead must only be replaced by authorized technicians as special
purpose tools are required.
Caution:
Soldering irons operate at high temperatures and can easily burn people or objects. Do not touch the tip and heater
at any time and keep it a safe distance from flammable materials while the unit is on or while it’s cooling. Please
allow a sufficient time for it to cool before changing tips or servicing the unit!
COMMON CAUSES OF TIP UNWETTING
1.
Tip temperature higher than 410
Ԩ
(770
Ԭ
).
2.
The tip working surfaces are not tinned while the iron idling.
3.
Lack of flux in soldering, wicking, repairing, and touch‐up operations.
4.
Wiping the tip on a high sulfur content, dirty or dry sponges and rags.
5. Touching with organic substances such as plastic, resin, silicone, grease or other chemicals.
6. Impurities in solder and/or low tin content.
