APPLICATION & OPERATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Note:
The first time you use the soldering iron, it may smoke slightly as the heating
element dries out. This is normal and should only last for a few minutes.
ONLY USE FOR ELECTRICAL WORK
- Acidic solder will damage the iron tip.
•
Allow the tip to fully heat up for approximately 45 seconds.
•
Set the required temperature using the controls on the desoldering station.
•
A lower temperature is recommended for quick cooling of soldered joints, less
dioxides and cleaner joints.
