■ WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Do not use the soldering iron if the handle, the power cord or the plug are damaged. Never open the appliance!

■ CAUTION! RISK OF BURNS! Always make sure that the soldering tip is properly attached to the appliance before use. Do not touch the heated soldering tip or the molten solder. There is a risk of being burnt. Always allow the appliance to cool down completely before changing components, cleaning or checking it.

■ After work, allow the soldering iron to cool down in the air only. Do not attempt to quench it with water!

■ CAUTION! RISK OF FIRE! Always use the special holder or another fireproof surface when you put the hot soldering iron down.

■ The soldering iron must be stored in its stand when not in use.

- Keep the appliance away from flammable material.

■ Remove any flammable objects, liquids and gases from the working area of the appliance before use. To help prevent accidents, always keep your work area clean and tidy.

■ Never leave a switched-on appliance unsupervised.

■ CAUTION! RISK OF INJURY! Keep your hands away from the heated workpiece. The heat can be emitted through the workpiece.

■ In the event of danger, remove the power plug from the outlet immediately.

■ CAUTION! RISK OF POISONING! Do not breathe in vapours.

■ During work over an extended period in which hazardous vapours can be created, always ensure sufficient ventilation of the workplace. In addition, protective gloves, a face mask and work apron are recommended.

■ Avoid eating, drinking and smoking in rooms where soldering work is taking place. Otherwise, lead residues on your hands might contaminate the food, drink or cigarettes and be absorbed into your body.

■ Always wash your hands thoroughly after soldering.

■ Do not dispose of solder waste in normal household waste. Solder waste should be disposed of with hazardous waste.

ATTENTION! Do not exert any excessive pressure on the soldering tip during use. Otherwise it could bend.

■ Avoid contact between the hot soldering tip and the plastic parts of the holder. Otherwise, the appliance might be damaged.

Before use

(i) Note:

▶ All devices are checked for function at the end of the manufacturing process. Therefore the soldering iron ④ might have a slight discolouration. This does not mean your originally packaged appliance is not brand new.

Soldering iron stand

The soldering iron stand 10 is pre-assembled. Always use it to store the soldering iron 4 safely during work breaks. Take care not to let the power cord hang down, otherwise the soldering iron stand 10 could tip over due to the weight of the soldering iron 4. If you want to attach it to the worktop, you can use the opening in the centre of the soldering iron stand 10 to screw it to the base.

Inserting/replacing the soldering tip ⚠️ CAUTION! RISK OF BURNS!

▶ Never heat the soldering iron ④ without the soldering tip ⑧/⑬.
The soldering tip 8/13 may only be removed when the appliance is switched off and the soldering tip 8/13 has cooled down.
Unscrew the fixing rinsg ⑥ and remove the sleeve ⑦ from the soldering tip ⑧/13.
Pull the soldering tip 8/13 out of the holder 5 and attach a new one. Make sure that you lower it into the holder 5 as far as it will go.
Put the sleeve ⑦ back onto the soldering tip ⑧/⑬ and screw the fixing ring ⑥ back on.

Use

Switching on/o

Switching on:

◆ Plug the mains plug into a suitable power outlet and press the ON/OFF switch ① for approx. 2 seconds.
◆ The LED indicator ② lights up red. The appliance starts to heat up.
As soon as the set temperature is reached, the LED indicator lights up green.

(i) Note:

Before using the soldering iron ④ for the first time and also when using any new soldering tip, the soldering tip ⑧/⑬ must first be tinned (see section Soldering).

Switching off:

i Note:

▶ Always put the soldering iron ④ back into the soldering iron stand ⑩ after use.
◆ Press the ON/OFF switch ①. Always remove the plug from the outlet when not in use.

Setting the temperature

i Note:

▶ Fault-free soldering requires the use of appropriate solders. Furthermore, it is not possible to make perfect soldered joints unless the correct soldering temperature is used. If the soldering temperature is too low, the solder is not sufficiently fluid and causes dirty solder joints (so-called cold solder joints). If the soldering temperature is too high, the soldering flux can burn and the solder will not flow. In addition, the materials to be processed can be destroyed.

■ Use the temperature settings below for the most common applications. These may vary depending on the solder/manufacturer.

approx. 200°C	Melting point of the most frequently used soft solders.
approx. 300°C	Normal operation, e.g. when using lead-free solder.
approx. 400°C	High soldering temperature, e.g. for de-soldering small solder joints.
approx. 480°C	Maximum soldering temperature, e.g. for de-soldering larger solder joints.

Setting the working temperature

Turn the temperature control ③ until the desired temperature corresponds with the arrow △

Soldering sponge

ATTENTION!

The hot soldering tip ⑧/⑬ must never come into contact with a dry soldering sponge ⑪. Otherwise, the soldering sponge ⑪ can be damaged.

i Note:

▶ The soldering sponge ⑪ is used to clean the soldering tip ⑧/⑬.
▶ Moisten the soldering sponge ⑪ only slightly before using it. Squeeze out excess liquid away from the appliance before use.

Soldering

Vapours can lead to headaches and fatigue if inhaled.

■ The soldering iron ④ is ideal for soldering electronics.

■ Its design makes it perfectly suited for hard-to-reach areas and fine soldering work.

Clean the soldering tip 8/13 on the moist soldering sponge 11.
The soldering tip 8/13 must be tinned before starting soldering work. To do this, heat up the unused or cleaned soldering tip 8/13 and tin it by contact with the solder 14.

If possible, connect the parts to be soldered together mechanically, e.g. by twisting wires into each other.

◆ Guide the soldering tip ⑧/⑬ to the solder joint and heat it.

♦ Melt the solder 14 between the solder joint and soldering tip 8/13.

- Add more solder 14 until the entire solder joint is covered.

Then withdraw the soldering tip 8/13 immediately so as not to overheat the molten solder.

◆ Allow the solder to harden and avoid any knocks or vibrations.

i Note:

▶ For extensive soldering work, we recommend cleaning the tip from time to time and re-tinning if necessary.

▶ Use the tweezers 17/18 to accurately grip and hold small objects such as wires, chips or other electronic components. The straight tweezers 18 are suitable for small to medium-sized objects. The angled tweezers 17 are best suited for hard-to-reach areas and for soldering work on circuit boards or for soldering jewellery.

- You can use the supplied cable wire 19 to connect electrical cables. Use the stripping knife 16 to expose the cable strands.

To do this, insert the cable into the appropriate recess on the blade of the stripping knife 16. Carefully cut the cable insulation by pressing the movable part of the stripping knife 16 onto the blade and rotating it around the cable. For thinner cables, use the blade at the tip of the stripping knife 16. Then remove the insulation.

Desoldering

■ You can soak up excess solder with the desoldering braid 15.

The desoldering braid 15 is heated together with the workpiece for this purpose. When the temperature is reached, the desoldering braid 15 absorbs the excess solder.

■ Defective solder joints can be desoldered again using the desoldering pump ⑫. This is used to extract the liquid solder. Proceed as follows to desolder:

◆ Press the pump plunger down until you hear it click into place.

◆ Guide the soldering tip 8/13 to the defective solder joint and heat it.

As soon as the metal has melted, bring the desoldering pump ⑫ directly up to the melting point and press the red suction button so that the soldering material is sucked out and the point is desoldered.

Maintenance and cleaning

WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!

Always pull the mains plug out of the mains socket and let the appliance cool down before you carry out any work on the appliance.

■ Always clean the appliance after completion of work.

■ To clean the housing, use a cloth and a mild detergent if necessary.

■ Never use sharp objects, petrol, solvents or cleaning agents that can damage plastic.

■ Do not allow any liquids to get into the interior of the appliance.

■ To clean the desoldering pump ⑫ unscrew it, pull both parts apart and remove the steel spring inside. Loose solder residues can be wiped off with a dry cloth, adhering residues can be removed with a brush. Then reassemble the cleaned desoldering pump ⑫ in reverse order.
