6.5 Soldering and desoldering
Carry out soldering work as directed in the operating instructions
of your connected soldering tool.
Handling soldering tips
− Coat the tin-plated soldering tip with solder when heating the iron
for the first time as this will remove any oxide films or impurities
from the soldering tip that have accumulated during storage.
− During pauses between soldering and before storing the soldering
iron, ensure that the soldering tip is well-coated.
− Do not use aggressive fluxing agents.
− Always make sure that the soldering tip is seated correctly.
− Select the lowest possible working temperature.
− Select the largest possible soldering tip shape for the application:
approx. as large as the soldering pad.
− Coat the soldering tip well to ensure efficient heat transfer
between the soldering tip and soldering point.
− Switch off the system if you do not intend to use the soldering iron
for lengthy periods or activate the Weller temperature reduction
function.
