9. MAINTENANCE

Changing the solder pot

CAUTION

After changing the solder pot, measure the 

temperature again. If the measured value is different 

from the displayed temperature, enter an offset.

WARNING

When the power is ON, the temperature of the 

melted solder in the solder pot is approximately 

450℃/842℉. Before changing the solder pot, be 

sure to unplug the power cord and let the solder 

and the unit cool to room temperature.

Replacing the heating element

1. Using the hexagon wrench (provided with the 

HAKKO FX-301B) to loosen the screws on both 

sides of the unit.

NOTE:

Removal is unnecessary.

2. Pull out the solder pot.

3. Insert a new solder pot and then tighten the 

screws on both sides.

CAUTION

Check that the solder pot has been locked now. 

Otherwise, the temperature may not increase 

properly.

1. Loosen the screws on both sides of the unit. 

(Fig. 1)

NOTE:

Removal is unnecessary.

2. Pull out the solder pot. (Fig. 2)

3. Remove the setscrews (6 pieces) on the unit. 

(Fig. 3)

4. Slide the front panel frontward, disconnect the two 

connectors (Fig. 4) from the connector circuit 

board, and then pull out the units of the heating 

elements (Fig. 5).

5.  Insert the right and left heating elements in the 

reverse procedure to removing the heating elements.

After finishing the maintenance, measure the 

temperature of solder. If the measured value is 

different from the display temperature, enter an offset.

CAUTION

The heating element is a discrete type.

The right heating element is equipped with a sensor.

8. IN CASE THE DISPLAY AND THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURE IS DEFFERENT

● 

Entering offset value

The offset value was set to 0℃ at factory.
Example: 

When the set temperature is 400℃ and the actual 

solder temperature in the solder pot is 350℃; The 

difference between the two is +50℃. Therefore, 

enter 050 instead of the current offset value.

1. Press the      button on the front panel.

•  This will set the station to offset value entry mode.
2. Enter the offset value

The allowable ranges for offset values are from 

–70 to +70℃ (In ℉ mode from –158 to +158℉).

a. Entering the hundreds digit

•  Press the        or        button to set the desired 

figure. In ℃ mode, 0 (plus) or - (minus) can be 

selected. (In ℉ mode, 0, 1 (plus) or -, -1 (minus) 

can be selected.)

When the desired figure is displayed, press the      

button to enter. The tens digit will begin to flash.

b. Entering the tens digit

•  Press the        or        button to set the desired 

figure. Any value from 0 to 7 (In ℉ mode, 0 to 9) 

can be selected. When the desired figure is 

displayed, press the        button to enter.

The units digit will begin to flash.

c. Entering the units digit

•  Press the        or        button to set the desired figure. 

Any value from 0 to 9 (In ℉ mode, same value  can 

be selected.) When the desired figure is displayed, 

press the        button to enter.

Once you can check the display and the measured 

temperature, all the settings are finished.

When the temperature of solder reaches the set 

value, the buzzer sounds. About 5 to 10 minutes later, 

measure the temperature of solder. If the measured 

value is different from the displayed temperature, 

match them with each other by entering an offset.
