Care and maintenance
WARNING!
Before maintenance work, the unit must be depressurised.
To ensure that the device works as correctly, the vacuum
tube and the extraction hose of the FE soldering iron must be
cleaned on a regular basis. If heavily soiled, the extraction
tube can be placed in a sealed, gastight container and
soaked in cleaning alcohol (ethanol) until the flux residues
have dissolved.
WARNING!
Legal safety regulations on the handling of cleaning products
must be observed when using such products. The cleaning
product should be treated as hazardous waste.
If the extraction capacity is no longer sufficient with cleaned
FE soldering irons, the filters must be checked.
The pre-filter can be replaced several times before the main
filter has to be renewed.
If original Weller filters are used properly, the service life of
the particle filter and broadband gas filter are matched to
each other.
Before fitting the new main filter cartridge, it should be
marked with the installation date. The assembly of the unit is
done in reverse order.
Warning: When inserting the filters, pay attention to the cor-
rect order and the installation position. The dirty filters must
be treated as hazardous waste.
Repairs must always be referred to a Weller-trained
specialist.
Use original replacement parts only.
Filter change
The suspended matter filter and the
MIN 1x
broadband gas filter are complementary
to one another and can be replaced
together as a compact filter. The fine
dust filter (filter mat) is the preliminary
year
stage of the compact filter and therefore
must be replaced more frequently.
It is strongly recommended that the
compact filter be replaced after no more
than 10 fine dust filter changes.
To ensure that the filtration system functions properly, the
filter must be replaced as follows:
at least once a year or
if the maximum allowable workplace concentration is
exceeded or
as per maintenance schedule
Contaminated filters must be treated as special waste. Wear
suitable protective gear.

Notice
Different fluxes and flux constituents and the amount of and
size of dust particles in the extracted air will signifi cantly
effect the filters working life.Submicron particles in the
extracted air increase when soldering or welding to varnish
insulated wire.

after a period of one year from delivery to the buyer. This
