Setting up & Operating the soldering station
!
CAUTION: The sponge is compressed. It will swell when moistened with water.
Before using the unit, dampen the sponge with the water and squeeze it dry. Failure to do so may
result in damage to the Soldering tip.
Iron Holder
1.Small Cleaning Sponge
Dampen the small cleaning sponge with water
and then squeeze it dry.
Place it in one of the openings of the iron holder
base.
2. Add water to the approximate level as shown.
The small sponge will absorb water to keep the
large sponge above it wet at all times.

*The large sponge may be used alone (without
small sponge & water).
3. Dampen the large cleaning sponge and place it
on the iron holder base.
Connections
!
CAUTION: Be sure to turn off the power switch before connecting or disconnecting the
soldering iron. Failure to do so may result in damage to the soldering station.
1. Connect the cord assembly to the
receptacle.
2. Place the soldering iron in the iron holder.
3. Plug the power cord into a power supply.
Be sure to ground the unit.
4. Turn the power switch on.
The temperature is preset at 300℃or 350
℃at the factory.
The heater lamp flickers when the
temperature has stabilized.
5. Press the * button to display the preset
temperature. It will be displayed for two
seconds.
Setting the temperature
Set Temperature Normally
!
CAUTION: Make sure the temperature of the station can be adjusted (password is OK or
the password is initial).While setting the temperature normally, the heating
element is off.
If the “*” button is pressed for less than one second, the present temperature setting will be
shown for two seconds and then the display will return to showing the tip temperature.
Example:400℃to 350℃

1. Press the *button and hold it down for at least
one second. The left-most digit (the 100’s
digit) in the display will flash. This indicates
that the station is in temperature setting mode
and that the 100’s digit can be adjusted.
2. Select the desired value for 100’s digit. Using
the ▲ or ▼button will change displayed

3. Select the desired value for the 10’s digit.
Using the ▲ or ▼button will change
displayed value as shown below.
1Q2Q3Q4Q5Q6Q7Q8Q9Q0
Press the * button. The right (the 1’s digit) will
then begin flashing to indicate that the 1’s digit
can be set.
4. Select the desired value for the 1’s digit.
Using the ▲ or ▼button will change the
displayed value as shown above for the 10’s
digit selection.
Press the * button. Here, pressing the *
button……
A. enters the temperature setting into the
internal memory.
B. displays the temperature setting, and
C. starts heater control
Note: If you turn off the power switch during the
temperature setting, setting value will not be
stored in the memory. If a temperature value
outside of this range is selected, the display will
return to flashing the 100’s digit. If this happens,
input a correct temperature value.
Set temperature on-line
In the work, if it is necessary to set temperature quickly and the heat elements can’t be cut off,
the way may be selected.
Temperature rising:
Don’t press *button, and press ▲button directly. If so, the setting temperature will raise one
degree centigrade and the display window will display the set temperature. When loose the ▲
button, the display window will delay the set temperature about 2 seconds. If within 2 seconds of

time, press the ▲button again, the setting temperature will raise one degree centigrade again.
If press the ▲button and not loose at least 1 second, the setting temperature will rise rapidly.
Till the needed temperature reaches, then loose the ▲button.
Temperature dropping:
Don’t press *button, and press ▼button directly. If so, the setting temperature will drop one
degree centigrade and the display window will display the set temperature. When loose the ▼
button, the display window will delay the set temperature about 2 seconds. If 2 seconds later,

The Password of input is correct
Input New Password
Repeat the New Password
the password of input is error, and the

6. If the display window shows , this
indicates the password of input is correct.
After displaying about 4 seconds, the station
comes into normal work state, and the setting
temperature will be admitted.
7. When display window is showing ,
press * button, and shows . It
indicates the station comes into inputting new
