the desired temperature setting (ranging from
160°C to 500°C)
• Wait until the soldering tip has reached the
selected temperature. Test the tip temperature
by touching it with solder. The tip is hot enough
when the solder melts away easily.
• Press the terminal pin strongly against the
parts which are to be soldered so that these
are heated. Ensure that the pin presses against
the greatest possible surface area of the parts.
Heat transfer is then at its greatest.
• Hold the tin solder wire at a safe distance so
that you do not burn your fingers. Then pass
the tin solder wire between the tip and the
parts which are to be soldered.
• If the parts have been heated sufficiently, melt
the tin solder and run it into the space between
the parts which are to be joined together.
• Remove the pin from the parts which are to be
joined together but without moving these and
wait until the joint has cooled down and set
(approx. 10 seconds.).
• If the joint has been soldered well, then you will
obtain a polished, shiny surface.
• Clean the soldering tip on the sponge after
each soldering.
• Place the soldering iron back in its holder,
switch off and unplug from the mains after use.
• Let the soldering iron cool down, store away in
a dry place.
Warning: This tool must be placed on its
stand when not in use.
Below, we give you some examples of poorly
soldered joints:
• If the soldering tin is tear-shaped, the soldering
coagulate was too cold.
• If the soldering tin is dull and slightly porous
or crystalline, the parts were probably moved
during the cooling process.
• If too little soldering tin has been left in the
joint, the soldering was too warm or the
soldering tin was not melted sufficiently.
• If the soldering tin is yellow or black, this
means that too much soldering paste has been
used or that the inner core of the tin solder wire
has become overheated during soldering. You
must avoid this above all in electronic circuits
since most acid pastes are corrosive and
reduce the service life of electronic wiring.

Replacement of the soldering tip
Pull out the mains plug!
• Switch off the soldering station and disconnect
from the mains. Let the soldering iron and
tip cool down to room temperature before
handling.
• Unscrew the fixing nut (2). Pull out the tip (1)
from the soldering iron (3) and remove any
oxide that may have formed on the barrel. Be
careful to avoid getting dust in your eyes.
• Replace the tip (1) with another tip and screw
the fixing nut (2) assembly onto the iron (3)
using only hand pressure to tighten. Do not
apply excessive pressure to avoid damage.
4. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
Repairs may only be carried out by a
qualified electrician or at a service
workshop!
These machines have been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper machine care and regular
cleaning.
Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to
prevent overheating of the engine. Regularly clean
the machine housing with a soft cloth, preferably
after each use. Keep the ventilation slots free from
dust and dirt. If the dirt does not come off use a
soft cloth moistened with soapy water. Never use
solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water,
etc. These solvents may damage the plastic parts.
Lubrication
The machine requiers no additional lubrication.
Faults
Should a fault occur, e.g. after wear of a part,
please contact the service address on the
warranty card.
