Warning and Caution are defined as follows:
WARNING!:
Misuse may potentially cause death of, or serious injury to,
the user. The manufacturer will not be held liable for any loss
life or property.
CAUTION!:
Misuse may potentially cause death or serious injury to the
user. Proper diligence has to be used by the user in order to
avoid injury or physical damage to objects and or re hazard.
NOTE: Please use proper safety gear such as goggles and
breathing mask in a safe work environment, prior to
operation of this product.
When the power is on, tip temperature is between
200°C/392°F and 480°C/896°F
These temperatures are potentially high enough to cause the
following:
Serious burn injuries by touching the metallic parts/hot
air to oneself or others.
Can cause res if product comes into contact with
inammable objects.
People in the vicinity of the product should be warned
about its potential dangers.
Power should be off when not being used and when
unattended.
Before replacing parts on the respective unit, be sure to
switch off the unit and allow ample time for cooling to
ambient.
The following conditions must be strictly be adhered to while
using this product.
Use for soldering applications only
Banging the soldering iron against hard surfaces to
remove extra solder may damage the product beyond
warranty, and cause short circuit or shock hazard.
Do not attempt to modify the unit as warranty will be void.
Use only genuine Soldron Replacement parts.
Product should not come in contact with water or
moisture.
Do not block air vents or front nozzle on hot air blower as
this may cause overheating and become a re hazard.
Have proper ventilation while soldering as fumes may be
harmful if inhaled.
Do not let heated iron come in contact with the electrical
cord or plastic casing of the station.
Be sure to lightly dampen the sponge to clean the tip
when necessary for extended tip maintenance.
Be sure to keep the vents of the hot air blower clean and
unobstructed for proper airow.
Do not t or unplug the iron and/or hot air blower from the
base station before switching off the electricity.
The hot air blower and the iron have different types of plugs
and should not be interchanged.
Setting up and operation:
a) First things first-
1. Be sure to lightly wet the sponge and place carefully in the
receptacle provided
2. You can add very little water to the space under the sponge
section to avoid it from drying up during use.
b) Connecting the iron and hot air blower to the station:
1. Put the iron and blower in the respective provided stands.
2. Connect the soldering iron and hot air blower plugs into their
respective sockets on the station.
3. Gently tighten the nuts, securing the plugs to the sockets.
4. Set the knobs on the station at zero position.
5. Connect the supplied power cord into the station and the
other end into the mains.
6. Turn on the switch at the rear of the station.
7. Set the temperature and air knobs as per requirement.
8. Hot air blower's inbuilt sensors will activate when placed
within it's holder and cool down by leaving it's fan on and
switching off it's heating. When completely cool, the blower fan
will switch off until picked up again, which will then re-activate
into working mode.
9. When the LED light on the panel starts blinking, it indicates
that the preset temperature has been reached.
10. The iron and hot air blower are now ready for use.
Note: The hot air blower may be used without nozzle
attachments for large area heating and larger components.
Smaller nozzles may be used to heat smaller
areas/components.
c) Important Points for tip care
1. Higher soldering temperatures can reduce the life of the tip
(Try to use lower temperatures where possible)
2. Clean the tip with the provided cleaning sponge to remove
all oxides and ux deposits. This improves the effectiveness of
the bit over long term usage.
3. After soldering job is complete, clean the tip and coat it with
solder to enhance its life.
4. CAUTION!: Using les and abrasive materials to clean the
tip, will wear away the protective iron coating to expose the
copper which will render the tip useless.
5. When the tip develops a hole due to wear of protective iron
