CAUTION:

Handle the heated soldering iron with extreme care, as the high temperature of the iron can cause

fires or painful burns.

The first time you use the soldering iron, It man smoke slightly as the heating element dries out. This

is normal and should only last for approx. 10 minutes.

Never file the specially-plated tip.

TIP REPLACEMENT AND DRESSING:

Note: Tip replacement or cleaning should only be done when the iron is at room temperature.

The tip can be changed or replaced by unscrewing the knurled nut barrel assembly. It is essential that

the iron is switched off and allowed to cool before and after this operation, as damage may result if the

iron is left on without the tip inserted.

After removing the tip, blow out any remaining oxide dust that may have formed in the tip retaining area

of the barrel. Care should be taken to avoid getting dust in your eyes. Replace the tip and tighten the

knurled nut barrel assembly using only hand pressure.

Pliers should only be used to tighten the nut if loosening occurs when the iron is hot. Care should be

taken not to over tighten the nut, as this may damage the element.

RECOMMENDED SOLDERING WORKING TEMPERATURES:

A low iron temperature will slow the flow of solder. A high temperature will burn the flux in the solder,

which in turn will emit a heavy white smoke, resulting in a dry joint or damage to the PCB. When the tip

working temperature is within the correct parameters suited to the particular solder being used, a good

joint is assured. The most common solder alloy used in the electronics industry is 60% tin, 40% lead

(60/40).

The tip working temperature of solder is detailed below and can vary slightly from manufacturer to

manufacturer.

Melting point ......................................................215°C (419°F)

Normal operation ................................................320°C (608°F)

Production line operation ....................................380°C (716°F)

Desoldering operation for small joint ..................320°C (608°F)

Desoldering operation for larger joint ..................400°C (752°F)

To meet RoHS (European requirement for lead free solder), the 60/40 solder alloys are not allowed in the

production process. The RoHS lead free solder alloys require a working temperature of about 30°C

(54°F)higher than typical 60/40 lead/tin soldering.
