Instrucciones de funcionamiento

1. Precalentamiento: After plugging in and setting the temperature, allow the soldering iron to preheat for approximately 1-2 minutes. The built-in ceramic heating element ensures fast and stable heating.
2. Estañando la punta: Before first use and periodically during operation, tin the tip by applying a small amount of solder to the heated tip. This helps prevent oxidation and improves heat transfer.
3. Proceso de soldadura:
   • Clean the surfaces to be soldered.
   • Aplique la punta del soldador caliente tanto al cable del componente como a la almohadilla de PCB simultáneamente.
   • Feed solder onto the joint, not directly onto the iron tip. Allow the solder to flow evenly.
   • Retire la soldadura y luego el cautín. Deje que la unión se enfríe sin tocarla.
4. Enfriarse: After use, unplug the soldering iron and place it safely in a heat-resistant stand. Allow it to cool completely before handling or storing.

Mantenimiento

• Limpieza de la punta: Regularly wipe the soldering tip on a damp Esponja o lana de latón para eliminar el exceso de soldadura y la oxidación. Una punta limpia garantiza una transferencia de calor eficiente.
• Reemplazo de punta: The soldering iron features a long-lasting replaceable tip. To replace, ensure the iron is unplugged and cool. Unscrew the retaining collar, remove the old tip, insert the new tip, and secure the collar.
• Limpieza general: Keep the handle and body of the soldering iron clean and free from debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Solución de problemas

• La plancha no calienta:
  • Compruebe si el cable de alimentación está enchufado de forma segura a una toma de corriente que funcione.
  • Verifique el volumen de la fuente de alimentacióntage matches the iron's requirements.
  • Ensure the temperature adjustment dial is set correctly.
• Uniones de soldadura deficientes:
  • Asegúrese de que la punta del soldador esté limpia y adecuadamente estañada.
  • Check if the temperature setting is appropriate for the solder and components being used.
  • Verify that the surfaces to be soldered are clean and free of oxidation.
• Humo/vapores excesivos:
  • Asegúrese de que haya una ventilación adecuada en su espacio de trabajo.
  • Use lead-free solder if possible, which generally produces fewer fumes.

If issues persist, discontinue use and contact customer support.
