Lifting/releasing a component
There is a hole on one side of the vacuum suction lifter handle. Press the rubber suction cap onto the component that
you want to lift and cover the hole with your finger. The vacuum will deform the rubber suction cap, enabling you to
lift the component.
If you take your finger off the hole, the vacuum can no longer deform the rubber suction cap and the component will
be released.
k) Using the desoldering gun
The soldering tip of the desoldering gun has a small hole through which desoldering suction is performed using the
vacuum pump in the 4-in-1 rework station.
Place the soldering tip to the pins of a component, so that it encloses these.
When the solder has become liquid, press the finger grip. The vacuum pump starts up and the liquid solder will be
vacuumed.
The vacuum pump only starts when the desoldering gun has heated to the pre-set temperature.
So that the suction power does not decrease, you must regularly empty the residual solder from the desoldering gun.
For further use, the 4-in-1 rework station filter and a cleaning wire are enclosed. For this purpose, see the “Mainte
-
nance” section.
