RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
For soldering and desoldering
- Clean the contacts to be desoldered of dust
or dirt.
- Preferably select a temperature below 375°C.
Excess temperature may cause the printed
circuit tracks to break loose.
- The tip must be well tinned for good heat
conduction. If it has been inoperative for
any length of time, it should be retinned.
Desoldering process
Use the tip model with a larger diameter than
the pad to be desoldered, so as to achieve
maximum aspiration and thermal efficiency.
1Apply the desoldering iron tip so that the
component terminal penetrates within its
orifice.
2When the solder liquefies, start gently to rotate
the desoldering tip so that the component’s
terminal can be eased away from the sides.
3Press then, not before, the vacuum pump
push-button just long enough to aspirate
the solder.
After pressing the desoldering key there is a
slight delay until the self-contained vacuum pump
stops, this is to make sure that the vacuum
circuit is completely empty.
If any solder remains are left on any terminal after
attempting to desolder it, resolder it with fresh
solder and repeat the desoldering operation.
Soldering iron tip replacement
Use the tip removal device Ref. 0114108.
➀Remove the ring to release the tip.
➁Remove the tip by pulling the soldering iron
lengthwise, without forcing the element.
➂Insert the new tip and make sure that it has
penetrated fully home.
ab
Desoldering iron tip replacement
This operation should be done while the tip is hot,
at a minimum temperature of 250°C, so that any
tin left inside is in molten state.
- Rest the desoldering iron body in the tip
removal device and unscrew the tip to be
replaced, with the aid of the spanner supplied
(Fig. a).
- Insert the thickest rod inside the desoldering
iron body duct (Fig. b).

4
Emptying the desoldering tank and changing
the filter
This should be done while the tip is still hot, with
a minimal temperature of 250°C, to make sure the
tin is melted, and therefore every precaution should
be taken.
- Release the clasp of the lock.
ENGLISH
- Fit the new tip, and tighten up with the
spanner until the aluminium gasket is
compressed to achieve a good air tightness.
Tip care
- The largest rod that fits in the tip hole should
periodically be passed through in order to
clean the intake tube.
- To clean the tips, use the sponge included
with the stand and check it is slightly
moisted.
Only deionised water (car battery water)Only deionised water (car battery water)

should be used in order to wet the sponge.
If normal water was to be used, it is very likely
that the tip will become dirty due to the salts
dissolved within the water.
- Do not file the tips or use abrasive tools
which may damage the tip’s protective
surface coating and avoid knocking them
about.
- If the tip has been a long time without being
tinned, use the metal brush Ref. 0297705
adaptable to the support, to remove any dirt
and oxid.
IMPORTANT::
::
: DO NOT press the pushbutton
vacuum pump while tinning the desoldering tip,
as the fumes given off by the flux would quickly
soil the ducts and filter of the air circuit. - Empty the tank by tipping up the soldering
iron.
- Insert through the tip hole the rod which
matches its diameter.
- Note the state of the filter and replace it if
soiled or damaged.
- Put the lock with the filter again and make
the clasp secure.
- Pull the lock then you take out the filter,
without spilling any of the solder in the
tank.
