This allows the user to work at a lower temperature.
As a result, tip life increases by 5.

Parameters
Sleep Delay
Set the time that the tool
will remain at the selected
temperature when in the stand
before entering sleep mode.
The tip temperature will then
drop to the Sleep temperature.
Fix One Temperature
Fix a value within the
temperature range of the
station (90-450ºC/190-840ºF).
Temperature Levels Set
Similar to “Fix one temp”
parameter. In this case, the
user can set up to 3 values for
different power requirements.
The sleep temperatures are
set to achieve a balance
between preventing oxidation
and reaching the working
temperature in a few seconds.
Ideal for soldering more than
one component at a specific
temperature. The station will
reject any attempt to change
the temperature.
This allows a quick change
between 3 different tempe-
ratures. Set them according
to the allowed values for your
soldering applications.
Because our tools reach the
working temperature from the
deafult Sleep mode in only a
few seconds, this parameter is
preset to 0 min. Once the tool
is returned to the stand the
temperature will automatically
drop to the sleep temperature,
extending tip life and avoiding
oxidation. Retinning the tip
before placing the tool in the
stand will protect the tip and
extend its life.
Recommendations Parameter Description Warnings
N/a
N/a
Setting these
parameters to higher values
will unnecessarily accelerate
oxidation and shorten tip
life especially when working
with temperatures up to
450°C (840°F).
Tool Settings
Sleep Temperature
This is the set temperature the
tip reaches when returned to
the stand.
Be careful when using these parameters as they may reduce the tip life if not used properly.
Please follow the recommended guidelines:
Station Settings
Recommendations Parameter Description
Temperature Unit
Celsius (ºC) or Fahrenheit (ºF)
Maximum Temperature
Set the maximum
temperature to work with.
Max. temp by default is 400°C
(750°F). This is considered
high enough to work with
most lead-free applications.
Minimum Temperature
Set the minimum temperature
to work with.
Min. temp. by default is 200ºC
(392ºF ). This is considered to
be a proper starting point for
leaded applications.
Metronome
This activates a beep sound.
Frequencies vary from 1 to 50
seconds.
Beep
Enable/disable the beep
sound of the keypad.
QST
Enable/disable QST. N/aN/a
Pin
Enable/disable pin prompt. N/aN/a
Change Pin
Change the default security
PIN number (0105).
N/a
The station temperature
range is 90-450ºC
(190-840ºF). Change the
temperature limits when
working with less common
applications such as low / high
melting point soldering (HMP)
or plastics (e. g. riveting).
Useful for setting a work rate
in repetitive jobs. The beep
lets you know the length of
time the tip must be in contact
with the soldering joint.
N/a
The PIN must be entered every
time a parameter is changed.
Warnings
In most cases,
working with temperatures
over 400°C (750°F) can
damage the PCB and its
components. Even in short
time periods of tip contact
with the soldering joint, the
flux may not work properly
and could seriously reduce
tip life. If the solder joint
requires more power
(e.g. multilayered or high
dissipation boards), JBC
strongly recommends using
other aids like preheaters.

Hibernation Delay
Set the time the tool will
remain at Sleep temperature
before entering the Hibernation
mode. At this time, the power
supply is cut off and the tip
remains at room temperature.
Temp Adjustment
It provides a more precise
adjustment between the
selected temperature and the
actual one.
This function completely
protects the tip from oxidation
during long periods of
inactivity while the tool is in the
stand.
Retinning the tip before
placing the tool in the stand
also helps prevent oxidation
and extends the life of the tip.
Set values within ±50°C
(± 90°F) to achieve zero error.
JBC strongly recommends
the use of TID-A or TIA-A
Thermometers to obtain
precise readings.
Increasing the default
value will accelerate
oxidation and shorten the
tip life.
When the user changes
the cartridge type, the
parameter should be reset
to 0°C/F or to the value
needed for this cartridge.
E.g. If a correction of +20°C
(+36°F) is set for a thick
cartridge and then the
user changes to a thinner
one whitout resetting the
temperature adjustment, he
would be working at a higer
temperature than needed
for this thinner cartridge,
which does not need any
temperature adjustment.

- Use a damp cloth to clean the casing and
the tool. Alcohol can only be used to clean
the metal parts.
- Periodically check that the metal parts
of the tool and stand are clean so that the
station can detect the tool status.
- Maintain tip surface clean and tinned prior
to storage in order to avoid tip oxidation.
Rusty and dirty surfaces reduce heat transfer
to the solder joint.
- Periodically check all cables and tubes.
- Replace any defective or damaged pieces.
Only use original JBC spare parts.
- Replace a blown fuse as follows:
1. Pull off the fuse holder and remove the
fuse. If necessary use a tool to lever it of f.

Safety
It is imperative to follow safety guidelines to prevent electric
shock, injury, fire or explosion.
- Do not use the units for any purpose other than soldering or rework. Incorrect use may cause fire.
- The power cord must be plugged into approved bases. Be sure that it is properly grounded
before use. When unplugging it, hold the plug, not the wire.
- Do not work on electrically live parts.
- The tool should be placed in the stand when not in use in order to activate the sleep mode.
The soldering tip, the metal part of the tool and the stand may still be hot even when the station
is turned off. Handle with care, including when adjusting the stand position.
- Do not leave the appliance unattended when it is on.
- Do not cover the ventilation grills. Heat can cause inflamable products to ignite.
- Avoid flux coming into contact with skin or eyes to prevent irritation.
- Be careful with the fumes produced when soldering.
- Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Wear appropriate protection glasses and gloves when
working to avoid personal harm.
- Utmost care must be taken with liquid tin waste which can cause burns.
- This appliance can be used by children over the age of eight and also persons with reduced
physical, sensor y or mental capabilities or lack of experience provided that they have been given
adequate supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance and understand the hazards
involved. Children must not play with the appliance.
- Maintenance must not be carried out by children unless supervised.
