OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Prior to use, draw the soldering tip through the soldering paste which is also supplied.

Direct the soldering tip towards the soldering point.

Actuate the push-button switch . The operation indicator lights up

In order to heat up the soldering tip, keep the switch pressed down for max 12 sec. before starting the soldering work until the necessary soldering heat has been reached - then let go of the push-button switch.

Never operate the soldering gun for continuous peroids!

The duration of the power supply controls the soldering heat (longer power supply = higher soldering heat). During the soldering process, never keep the push-button switch pressed down for too long. Determine the necessary duration of the power supply in practice by checking the soldering heat.

Press the ON/OFF switch for a maximum of 12 seconds – then do not operate the gun for at least 48 seconds.

As soon as you let go of the push-button switch, the soldering heat is reduced automatically. If the switch is actuated again, the heat increases rapidly. Constant soldering heat guarantees

an optimum soldering quality, melting of the soldering tip due to excessive temperatures is avoided and the service life of the device is extended.

Prior to use, draw the soldering tip through the soldering paste which is also supplied.

Because the operating temperature is reached quickly, the device functions in a very energy-saving manner. The special shape of the soldering-gun tip makes partial heating possible. Thus, the device is particularly operator-friendly and accelerates the heating process in the case of tin soldering.

MAINTENANCE OF THE DEVICE

Soldering tips and the soldering gun housing are connected together using screws and nuts so that the soldering tips can be quickly and easily changed.

Because the tip melts and wears after lengthy use, it is necessary to replace it at regular intervals.

CHANGING THE SOLDERING TIP

Unscrew and remove the two fixing screws connecting the tip and the housing. Replace the

old tip with a new one and re-insert and tighten the screws. The device is then ready for operation once again.
