ETC-RW900D is an intelligent lead-free rework station, which combines rework station
and soldering station. It is especially suitable for R&D, production, lab of scientific
research and so on. It is easy to operate, user-friendly and greatly space-saving.
In order to keep machine from damage and insure the safety of operation, please
read through the manual and keep it for required.
Safety and Caution:
The temperature of the hot-air nozzle is 400 so it may lead to injury, fire and other
accident because of improper usage. Please abide the following terms:
1. Don't make the rework station be against people or animals. And never use it
as a hair drier and touch the heating element or blow the skin directly.
2. Never operate it near the flammable gas or substance and put it beside them
after use.
3. After use, the power should be off and it will be automatically off when the
hot air temperature is lowered, (There is fuse inside, so great attention must
be paid to superheat in case of accident.)
4. Please care for using hot-air gun, never make it fall or shake heavily and put
the heavy things on it or press the buttons improperly.
5. Don't operate with wet hands or wet wire in order not to result in short circuit
or electronic shock.
6. Keep away from children.
7. Please use the nozzle offered by manufacture and don't replace
the original nozzle.
8. Temperature will vary from the models of the nozzles, which is normal.
9. Don't touch the iron tip or surrounding metals.
10. Change the components or tip after cutting off power and waiting to cool it.
11. Don't use this device do other work except soldering.
12. Don't rap the handle to remove the doss of tip, which is bad for it.
13. Don't pull the cable but hold tightly the plug when you take out of plug.
14. Please keep good ventilation because there is smoke when solder.
15. Don't play with other people or would be easy to hurt others or yourself.
16. Please pay attention to the specifications of the power supply,
for manufacture offer different specifications, so be careful of selection.
Caution
Characteristics:
1. MCU computer offers PID advanced algorithms industrial control with thermo-
control and thermo-stability, which makes more exactly control temperature.
2. Dual LCD screen respectively and separately display the working state and
parameter, which is very directly. So customer can understand the output state
at a glance.
3. Temperature rapidly rises with large output power.
4. High flow diaphragm pump suitable for varies of nozzles to desolder
SMD components.
5. Dormancy, automatic shut down and other power-saving features.
6. Shortcut keys on the handle make it more convenient for the user to adjust
temperature and air volume.
7. Three groups of storage functions can bring very fast mode of switching different
groups of temperature and hot-air volume to the customers.
8. All units are equipped with temperature compensation, which ensure stable state
of operation.
9. Indicator for malfunction alert.

The brackets for the handles must be installed when operating for the first time.
Please see the following illustration:
1. Please fix the bracket by tightening the four screws according to the illustration
and yourpersonal habit.
2. According to your selection, dismantle the two screws on the left or the right,
which fixthe bracket of the handle.
3. Place the two installation hole of the bracket to the two fixed screw holes of the
machine, and then tighten the dismantled two screws. Put the components of the
handle on the bracket to check if it is suitable.

Under the settingcondition. Then you can press "SET"button to set hot
-air rework station's temperature and the main temperaturearea shines
the setting temperature,you can press UP knob orDOWN knob to adjust
the setting temperature.4s-no-press or press SET knob, youcan keep the
temperature and quitout this setting. (Diagram 6).
A. Setting temperature via handle of rework station. You can press UP knob
or DOWN knob directly to adjust temperature and the main temperature
area indicators setting temperature. 4s-no-press or press SET knob, you
can keep thetemperature and quit out this setting, at that time, you can
adjust hot-air volume by pressing " " Whether screen A orscreen B
shine as you set, the device is under the setting condition and
shining area for switch to screen "A " automatically.
Notice: continually pressing UPor DOWN knob in long time will quickly adjust
the temperature, at that time, the screen don't shine. (Same as belowdescription)
In normal working condition, there are two methods to set hot-air volume:
A. If screen A shines setting temperature through operating the
button of panel. If screen A doesn'tshine you must press the "SET"
button to switch to shine of screen Athen the station under the
setting condition. Then you can press "SET" button to set hot-air rework
station' s temperature and the main temperature area shines the setting
temperature, you can press UP knob or DOWN knob to adjust the setting
temperature. 4s-no-press or press SET knob, you can keep the
temperature and quit out this setting (diagram 7).
B. Setting hot-airvolume via handleof rework station. You can pressUP
knob or DOWN knob to adjust hot-air volume and the main temperature
area indicators setting volume. 4s-no-press or press SET knob, you can
keep the volumeand quit outthis setting, at that time, youcan adjust
hot-air volume by pressing " " When the screen Aor screen Bshine
as you set, the device is under the setting condition and shining
area for switch to screen"A"automatically.

5. Storing the Temperature values
Under normal workingcondition, hold down POWER knob at the left ofpanel,
at the sametime long press(>5s) the UP knob or DOWNor SET toadjust
temperature and air volume to the required values separately in term 1 or
term 2 or term 3. But when you hold down POWER knob at the left of panel and
short press (<5s) UP or DOWN or SET knob to use the storage setting
temperature and airvolume into currentwork temperature and air volume
(diagram8, diagram9, diagram10).
(Notice: up, down, set refer to storage term 1, term 2, term 3)

6.Temperature comp temperature and calibration
Under normal working condition, hold down both POWER knob at left of
panel and " " knob on the handle to calibrate. Screen Awill display the
character CAL, and temperature value can be calibrated by pressing UP or
DOWN knobs. Pressingthe SET knobto confirm storage and quit fromthis
calibration (diagram 11).

(diagram 11)
Under normal workingcondition, when the user put the handle on thebracket,
then the equipmentwill be automatically switch to the dormancy condition and
the heater alsostops heating. This happens in the case when thetemperature is
higher than 100 , during the hot-air station dormancyperiod the screen A
display character SLP(diagram 3)
7. Dormancy
(diagram 3)
Screen A: Standby
In normal condition, continually press " "knob twice and then make the
hot-air be inthe state ofcold-air blow (diagram12). Under the cold-air
condition, press " " knob once, recover the hot-air working condition.
8.Conversation between cold-air and hot-air
(diagram 12)
Under normal working condition, the device keep the current temperature and
air volume and cut down heating to the rework station after pressing POWER
knob at the left of panel (diagram 1A), below 100 , the device is standby
(diagram1). If power is off, the soldering station is off, whole device will be off
after the temperature below 100 .
9.Standby
(diagram 1A) (diagram 1)
Standby state of screen A
1. When "H-E"is displayed onthe screen A, there is no hot air inthe nozzle
(diagram13), which indicatesthat the heatingelement fails.
2. When "S-E" is displayed on the screen A, there is a fault in sensor
(diagram14), which signifies that there is something wrong with the
sensor or the related circuit of the sensor.
