4.  operation

4.1.   

  

The soldering iron is primarily intended for the soldering of electrical joints such as the attachment of components to printed  

 

 

circuit boards and the connection of leads to plugs and sockets used in electronics. (Where delicate electronic components are  

 

 

concerned that may be damaged by excessive heat, the wire being soldered should be held with a pair of thin nosed pliers on the    

 

opposite side of the board so that some of the heat generated by the soldering process is transferred to the pliers.)

4.2. 

  

Before using the soldering iron, set up the metal stand provided by bending the centre section upwards so that it is at an angle of    

 

nearly 90° to the rest of the stand (fig.1). rest the soldering iron on the stand. Plug the iron into the mains supply and slide the switch  

 

to either position ‘I’ or ‘II’, for the desired wattage setting. Leave the iron on the stand, for it to heat up.

4.3. 

  

When the iron is up to temperature, “tin” the tip by melting a thin layer of solder over the end of it. If any difficulty is experienced in    

 

getting the solder to take to the tip, use a proprietary tip cleaner/tinning product.

4.4. 

  

The items to be soldered must be perfectly clean and free from grease. Ideally, the two items to be joined (such as the end of a wire   

 

and a switch terminal) should be individually tinned before being brought together to ensure a good joint.

4.5.    

ensure that the items to be soldered are accessible and are securely held together. 

4.6.    

Bring the tip of the soldering iron and the solder to the joint simultaneously. Leave the iron on the joint just long enough to melt  

 

 

the solder so that it flows onto the two parts to be joined. Replace the soldering iron on the stand. Leave the joint to cool. When  

 

 

finished working, slide the switch to the ‘0’ position and unplug the iron from its supply. Allow it to fully cool before storing it away.

4.7. 

  

do not

 allow solder to accumulate where the tip enters the iron as this may make the tip difficult to remove. 

4.8. 

  

When the soldering iron is not in use but still hot, ensure that when it is put down, the tip is not touching, or close to, any material that  

 

will melt or is inflammable.

4.9.    

After a prolonged period of service the tip may become pitted and need replacing. disconnect the soldering iron from the mains  

 

 

supply and wait until the iron has completely cooled down. loosen the tip retaining nut and pull out the old tip with a pair of pliers.   

 

insert the new tip and twist it into the orientation you require. lock the tip in place by tightening the retaining screw (fig.2).
