OPERATING GUIDELINES
4. Activatethe“DESOLDERGUN”Activationswitch(“12”fromcontrol
panel).Thiswill automaticallystart to increasethetemperatureof
thedesolderinggunto350°C(default).
5. Adjust the desoldering gun temp. using the DESOLDER
TEMPERATUREADJUSTMENTbuttons(“5”fromthecontrolpanel).
6. Allow the desoldering gun's tip and its barrel to heat up. Tip
temperaturecanbereachedwithin56minutesanditsbarrelwould
obtainoptimumtemperature59minutesafterthetiptemperature
hasbeenreached.Ifuponinitialusesoldergetsstuckattheendof
the barrel, clean the barrel and wait a few more minutes for the
barreltoheatup.
7. Check the tip temperature with an external temperature sensor,
adjust temperature settings higher or lower for the right
temperature.Orrecalibrateatthedesiredtemperaturelevel
8. Ensure that all the solder is melted before triggering the pump.
(Partiallymeltedsolderwillstillbesuckeduphoweveritwouldclog
thebarrel).
9. Upon pressing the pump trigger hold the trigger for 1 to 2
secondslonger,aslargerlumpsofsoldermayneedalongersuction

10. Cleanthefilteranddampenthespongefrequentlyduringandafter
usagetoallowbettersuctionpower.
11. When thetaskis finished, deactivate theDESOLDERGUN function
