Attention
On rst use the soldering iron may produce smoke, this is just grease used in manufacturing burning o󰀨. It is not harmful to
the product or user.

Features
• Heater: Mica, 160˚C-520˚C
• Digital temperature control by up/down buttons with blue LCD display.
• Compact and user-friendly design.
• With a mini drawer on the base to hold the spare parts.
Caution
Please note the following safety notes to avoid malfunctions, damage or physical injury:
• Persons with limited physical, sensory or mental abilities are not allowed to use the item, unless they are supervised for
their safety by a qualied person or are briefed by the responsible person how to use the item.
• Keep the packaging materials out of children’s reach.
• Do not leave the item unsupervised while it is turned on. Keep children away while the item is in use.
• Do not use it if the item or its power cord has been damaged.
• Do not run the power cord around sharp edges or over hot surfaces.
• Be warned of being burned: Do not touch the metal part of the iron when it’s in use as its temperature will be quite high.
• Be extra careful when using the soldering iron around combustible materials.
• Place the soldering station on a solid, level surface.
• During soldering harmful fumes may escape. Work only in well ventilated places.
• Protect your eyes and body from splashing hot solder by wearing suitable protective gears.
• Turn o󰀨 the item and unplug it when it’s not in use or before cleaning. Do not pull on the power cord, always grasp the plug
itself.
• Allow the item to cool down before cleaning or storing.
• Do not use the item outdoors.
• Do not immerse the item in liquids of any kind. Do not use the item to heat plastic or liquids.
• Do not disassemble the item or try to repair it yourself. It does not contain serviceable parts for you.
Operation
• Unpack the soldering station and check all parts. Damaged parts must not be put into operation.
• Install the iron stand and wet the cleaning sponge with water.
• Put the soldering iron into the stand.
• Place the soldering station on a solid and dry surface
• Plug in the soldering station and turn it on (I=ON/0=OFF). The LCD screen will show the set temperature of 300°C.
• Then press the “+” or “-” button to adjust the temperature. Each press will be +/- 10°C. The soldering iron will reach your
set temperature in 10 minutes .
• Test the temperature by touching the iron tip with solder. If the solder melts easily, you can start soldering.
• Tin the hot iron tip with solder; wipe o󰀨 excessive solder with the wet cleaning sponge.
• Heat up the soldering point with the iron and add solder.

• Wait till the solder cools down.
• Clean the tip with the wet sponge after each soldering.
• After nishing the work, put the soldering iron back into the stand to cool down and turn o󰀨 the soldering station.
• For larger soldering tips, turn up to higher temperature settings to better perform the soldering.
• Lower the temperature during breaks, which saves energy and extends the life of the soldering tip.
• Do not le o󰀨 the soldering tip, or it will be damaged.
• Always put the soldering iron in the stand when it is heating up or during breaks.
• Only use solder for electronics. Acidic solder can damage the tip or the workpiece.
Maintenance
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualied person in
order to avoid hazard.
Tip replacement
Note: Tip replacement or cleaning should be done only when the iron is at room temperature or below. The tip can be
changed or replaced simply by unscrewing the knurled nut barrel assembly. The station must be switched o󰀨 and allowed to
cool before and during this operation, as damage may occur if the system is left on without the tip inserted, after removing
tip, remove any oxide dust that may have formed in the tip retaining area of the barrel. Be careful to avoid getting dust in your
eyes. Replace the tip and screw the retaining knurled nut barrel assembly using only hand pressure to tighten. Pliers should
only be used to tighten the nut if loosening occur when the iron is hot to avoid burning your ngers. Do not over tighten as this
would damage the element.
General cleaning
The outer case of the iron or station may be cleaned with a damp cloth using small amounts of liquid detergent Never
submerse the item in liquid or allow any liquid to enter the case of the station. Never use solvent to clean the case.
