2. The wire which is coloured brown must be
connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter L or coloured red.
If the unit is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling
plant for a disposal which is not harmful
to the environment.
3 Setting into Operation
IMPORTANT! To avoid damage by overheating,
do not operate the soldering station without soldering tip.
1)
Connect the soldering iron to the soldering
station: Connect the plug (10) of the soldering
iron to the jack (4).
2)
Slide the soldering iron support (1) into the
slot (2).
3)
Connect the mains plug of the soldering
station to a socket (230 V/ 50 Hz).
4)
To switch on the station, press the toggle switch
(5). The digital temperature display (3) and the
LED indicator HEATER ON (8) will light up.
5) Slide the switch DISPLAY to the position SET.
The left field SET of the status indicator (9) will
light up. Use the rotary control (6) to set the
temperature (160 – 480 °C). The display (3) will
show the temperature desired.
6) Then slide the switch DISPLAY to the right to
the position READ. The right field READ of the
status indicator will light up; the display will
show the current heat-up temperature or temperature of the soldering tip. The LED indicator
HEATER ON will light while the soldering tip is
being heated up. It will extinguish as soon as
the temperature adjusted has been reached.
7)
To switch off the station, press the toggle
switch (5).
4 Replacement ofthe SolderingTip
1) Prior to replacing the soldering tip, switch off
the station with the toggle switch (5) and disconnect the station from the mains. Allow the
screw sleeve (11) and the soldering tip (12) to
cool down to room temperature.
2) Use your fingers to unscrew the screw sleeve
from the soldering iron tube.
3)
Remove any oxide residues from the soldering iron tube. While blowing oxide particles
out of the tube, provide a corresponding eye
protection.
4)
Replace the soldering tip (e. g. by soldering tips
of the MONACOR series SIT-5..ROHS) and use
your fingers to fasten the screw sleeve. Make
sure not to fasten the screw sleeve too tightly;
the heating element may be damaged.
5 Notes on Correct Soldering
1. Prior to operation, ensure a tight fit of the soldering tip.
2. Always keep the soldering tip clean and make
sure that sufficient soldering tin is applied to
the tip, especially before switching off the soldering station.
3. Prior to soldering, remove any impurities from
the parts to be soldered.
4.
To protect the soldering station and the soldering
tip, do not operate the station at temperatures
of 400 °C or higher for a longer period of time.
6 Cleaning the Soldering Station
Prior to cleaning, always switch off the soldering station and disconnect it from the
mains! For cleaning the housing of the soldering
station and the handle of the soldering iron, use
a damp cloth and a small quantity of cleaning
fluid. Do not use any aggressive detergents or
chemicals. When cleaning, make sure that no
fluid will enter the unit!
