McPower MLS-898 Instruction Manual

Soldering station
McPower „MLS-898"
160-480°C, 60W, with two helping hands
OPERATION
• Assemble the soldering iron stand and moisten
the cleaning sponge with water.
• Insert the soldering iron into the stand.
• Place the soldering station on a stable and dry surface.
• Connect the soldering station and turn it on (I=ON/0=OFF).
• Adjust the temperature using the dial.
• Test the temperature by touching the tip of
the soldering iron with solder. If the solder melts easily,
you can begin soldering.
• Tin the hot tip of the soldering iron with solder;
wipe off excess solder with the damp cleaning sponge.
• Heat the soldering tip with the soldering iron
and add solder.
• Wait for the solder to cool down.
• Clean the tip with the wet sponge
after each soldering operation.
• Place the soldering iron in the stand to cool down
after finishing work and turn off the soldering station.
• For larger solder joints, increase the temperature
to achieve a better soldering result.
• Lower the temperature during breaks to save energy
and extend the life of the soldering tip.
• Do not file the soldering tip, as it will damage it.
• Always place the soldering iron in the stand
while heating up or during breaks.
• Use only special electronics solder.
• Always unplug the device before cleaning.

TIP REPLACEMENT
Note: Tip replacement or cleaning should only be done when
the soldering tip is at room temperature or cooler.
• The tip can be replaced or removed by simply
unscrewing the knurled nut.
• The station must be turned off and cooled before
and during this process, as the system can be damaged
if left on without the tip inserted.
• After removing the tip, remove any oxide dust that has
accumulated in the tip's retaining area.
Be careful not to get dust in your eyes.
• Reinsert the tip and hand-tighten the knurled nut
onto the cylinder.
• Only use pliers to tighten the nut if the soldering tip has
come loose while hot to avoid burning your fingers.
• Do not overtighten the nut, as this would damage
the soldering iron.
GENERAL CLEANING
• The outer casing of the soldering iron or station can be
cleaned with a damp cloth and a little liquid detergent.
• Never immerse the device in liquid or allow liquid
to enter the station's housing.
• Do not use solvents for cleaning.
