Operation
The JBC Exclusive Heating System
This revolutionary technology is able to recover tip temperature extremely quickly.
This allows the user to work at a lower temperature.
As a result, tip life increases x5 times.
1. Work 2. Sleep
After
30’
Lift tool from the stand and
the tool tip will heat up to the
selected temperature.
When the tool is in the stand,
the temperature reduces to
180ºC / 360ºF (preset sleep
temperature).
After longer periods of
inactivity (pre-set to 30 min.),
the power is cut and the
tool cools down to room
temperature.

cartridge.
Insert the cartridge into the
handpiece and gently press
down.
Put the cartridge* into the
fixing holes as follows:
A. For straight C210.
B. For curved C210.
C. For curved C245.
D. For straight C245.
*Important: It is essential to insert the cartridges to the mark for a proper connection.

Wiper
Ref. CL0236
Very effective cleaning
method. It leaves a small layer
of solder on the tip to prevent
oxidation between cleaning
and rewetting.
It reduces solder
splashes when using
the metal or brass
wool. You don’t need to
hold the base while
cleaning tips
The least harmful cleaning
method. Keep the sponge damp
with distilled water when working
to help avoid tip wear.
A temperature resistant receptacle allows
the operator to remove excess solder by
gentle tapping or wiping.
Wiper can be easily removed for cleaning.
Tapping: Wiping:
Tap gently to remove
the excess solder.
Use the slots to wipe
off any remaining
particles.

Before carrying out maintenance or storage, always
allow the equipment to cool and unplug the stand from
the station and the tool
- Clean the station screen with a glass cleaner or a
damp cloth.
- Use a damp cloth to clean the casing, the stand and
the tool. Alcohol can only be used when cleaning the
metal parts.
- Check periodically that the metal parts of the tool/
stand are clean so that the station can detect when
the tool is in the stand.
- 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 cable connections.
- Replace a blown fuse as follows:
1. Remove the fuse by pulling the black cap.
If necessary use a tool to lever it off.
2. Press the new fuse into the holder and
replace it in the station.
Maintenance
Fuse
- Replace any defective or damaged pieces. Use original JBC spare parts only.
- Repairs should only be performed by a JBC authorized technical service.

It is imperative to follow safety guidelines to prevent electric
shock, injury, fire or explosion.
- Do not use the equipment 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. Antistatic handle of soldering irons is electrically
conductive.
- 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 even when out of sight.
- Use a “non residue” classified flux and avoid 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, sensory 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 shall not be carried out by
children unless supervised.
