Please be sure to read and follow the operating
instructions for your Weller Supply Unit.
Use only original Weller soldering
tips!
Handling the soldering tips
Coat the selective and tinnable soldering tip with solder
•
when heating it up for the first time. This removes oxide
coatings which have formed during storage and impurities
from the soldering tip.
Make sure that the soldering tip is well coated with solder
•
during breaks between soldering work and prior to storage
of the device.
Do not use aggressive fluxing agents.
•
Always make sure that the soldering tips are fitted properly.
•
Select as low a working temperature as possible.
•
Select the largest possible soldering tip shape for the
•
application. Rule of thumb: the soldering tip should be
roughly as large as the soldering pad.
Coat the soldering tip well with solder to ensure that there
•
is efficient heat transfer between the soldering tip and the
soldering area.
Prior to extended breaks between soldering work, switch
•
off the soldering system or use the Weller function to
reduce the temperature when the soldering equipment is
not in use.
Coat the tip with solder prior to storage if you do not intend
•
to use the soldering iron for an extended period of time.
Apply solder directly to the soldering area, not to the
•
soldering tip.
Do not apply mechanical force to the soldering tip.

Care and maintenance

WARNING!
Before doing any work on the machine, pull
the plug out of the socket. Leave the unit to
cool down.
Check all connected cables and hoses on a regular basis. If
power tools are damaged, they must be immediately
removed from use.
Only replace the soldering tips when they are cold.
The soldering tool must be left switched off in the safety rest
for at least 3 minutes until the soldering tip has cooled down.
Keep the heat transfer surfaces of the soldering tip and
heating element clean. The heating element must not come
into contact with soldering tin.
Repairs must always be referred to a Weller-trained
specialist.
Use original replacement parts only.
