4. Clean and inspect the solder collection chamber in the following manner:
a)
Glass Chambers
- Push the S Baffle (item
) and Filter (item
Â
)
from the chamber. A bristle brush may be used for this purpose.
Check for breaks or cracks in the glass and for broken or rough edges
on the ends of the chamber. Replace if any damage is evident.
Clean the chamber and S Baffle with the large nylon bristle brush
which has been wetted with an approved solvent. Run the brush
through the chamber several times to remove solder and flux residues
which have built-up. If desired, apply mineral oil to the brush and
lightly coat the inside of the chamber and the S Baffle.
b)
Silicone Rubber Chambers
- Remove the Filter (item
Â
) and S
Baffle (item
) from the chamber. Tap the side of the chamber
against the side of a waste container to release residual solder. Check
for any breaks or deformation of the chamber. After extended use, the
ends of the chamber may deform and cause air leaks at the rubber
seals (front and rear of handpiece). Replace if any damage is evident.
5. Assemble the solder collection chamber by installing the S Baffle (item
) and a new Filter (item
Â
) into the chamber. The S Baffle should
have enough tension to maintain a constant position within the chamber.
Bending of the baffle slightly at the center will readjust the tension. Do
not attempt to bend the baffle while installed in the chamber. The Filter
must line up with the markings on a glass chamber (just clear of the End
Cap Assembly in a silicone rubber chamber) and the rear of the S Baffle
should be positioned just touching the Filter.
7. To ensure that the chamber will remain attached to the End Cap
Assembly (item
À
), seat the End Cap Assembly in the chamber and twist
to secure in place.
8. Hold the Sodr-X-Tractor with the vacuum control switch in the upright
position.
9. Insert the chamber into the Sodr-X-Tractor. Slide the chamber into the
handpiece and onto the front heater seal.
10. Inspect for proper seating of the chamber on the front seal.
11. Attach the End Cap Assembly (item
À
) to the Sodr-X-Tractor by
pushing forward and turning clockwise to lock into place.
12. Check all air hose fittings. Actuate the vacuum and ensure that proper
vacuum flow is present at the tip.
