4.2 Sleeping Setting
1. When the window displays
time, the window displays the current sleeping time, which means the
soldering iron has been into the sleeping time setting mode. Click to "▲"
or " ▼" button change the displaying value, the digit changing order is as the
followings:
0
2. After select the sleeping time, click the "ON/OFF" button to save the value
into the memory.
3. The sleeping settings of the two work soldering irons are separate and both
need to set. After finishing one setting, it needs to repeat the same steps to
setting the other.
5. Select a correct tip
1. Select a tip that maximizes contact area between the tip and solder joint.
Maximizing contact area gives the most efficient heat transfer, allowing
operators to produce high quality solder joints quickly.
2. Select a tip that allows good access to the solder joint. Shorter tip lengths
allow more precise control. Longer or angled may be needed for soldering
densely populated boards.

6. Use and maintain
6.1 Care and Use of the Tip
Tip's temperature
High soldering temperatures can degrade the tip. Use the lowest possible
soldering temperature. The excellent thermal recovery characteristics ensure
efficient and effective soldering event at low temperatures. This also protects the
sensitive components from thermal damage.
Cleaning
Clean the tip regularly with a cleaning sponge, as oxides and carbides from the
solder and flux can form impurities on the tip. These impurities can result in
defective joints or reduce the tip's heat conductivity.
When using the soldering iron continuously, be sure to loosen the tip and remove
all oxides least once a week.
This helps prevent reduction of the tip temperature.
When not in use
Never leave the soldering iron sitting at high temperature for long periods of time,
as the tip's solder plating will be covered with oxide, which can greatly reduce the
tip's heat conductivity.
After use
Wipe the tip and coat it with fresh solder. This helps to prevent tip oxidation.
