OPERATION
1. Clean surfaces to be solded, if possible,
without damaging roughen with a wire brush or
sandpaper. Use alcohol to remove oil or grease.
CAUTION: Do not use any other type of solvent,
to avoid risk of fire and toxic fumes.
2. Heat the part to be welded
with the soldering iron.
3. Apply resin-based solder to
the part previously heated,
immediately apply the sold-
ering iron to melt the solder.
NOTE: When using
non-resin-based solder, be sure
to apply a solder paste to the
pre-heated part before placing
the sold- ering iron.
4. Wait for the solder to cool and harden before
moving the soldered part.
MAINTENANCE
CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF IRON TIP
IMPORTANT: It is recommended not to exceed
two minutes of continuous work, to avoid
shortening its life.
CLEANING: The iron tip must be cleaned after
use, wiping the tip on a cleaning sponge, this is
to get rid of the residue of solder that can cause
oxidation of the tip. If the tip has a bit of rust,
apply solder and wipe with sponge, repeat these
steps until you remove the oxidation.
Additionally, you will need to
clean the tips periodically when
used for an extended period of
time (remove the tip from the
soldering iron and clean once a
week).
