OPERATING GUIDELINES
4. Adjust the air flow level using the AIR PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
BUTTONS (“3” from the control panel).
5. Adjust the hot air gun air temperature using the HOT AIR GUN
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT BUTTONS (“2” from the control
panel). The prefix of the display for Hot Air Gun Temperature will
change from “H” to “h” indicating that air temperature is being
adjusted. It will return to “H” (indicating actual temperature) while
the temperature is gradually increasing or decreasing until the
desired temperature is reached.
6. Reworking task can be started 1 minute after the desired hot air
temperature and airflow level are reached, as also indicated from
display panels “11” and “12”, respectively.
7. When reworking is complete, return the Hot Air Gun to its holder
and DO NOT immediately turn off the main power switch.
8. Deactivate the Hot Air Gun Activation button first in order to activate
the auto-cooling process. The system will start to blow air (at room
temperature) at a fast rate to reduce heat from the hot air gun and
bring down the temperature to a reasonable safe level of 90°C.
During this time, the prefix of the display for hot air gun
temperature will also change from “H” to “C” while temperature is
gradually decreasing. Likewise, the air pressure level is at its highest
reading as indicated from the display panel. Once the temperature
drops to approximately 90°C the system will halt and display “OFF”
on the panel. It is now safe to switch off the main power switch.
9. Turn OFF the main power switch.
10. Unplug the device from the main power source.
IMPORTANT:
When adjusting the air temperature, it is strongly
advised to initially increase the airflow level in order to manage
the system temperature. This is to protect the heating element
inside the handle from excessive heat and avoid the possibility of
subjecting adjacent components to thermal shock.

3. Release the two buttons after the change in display.
4. Use the same two buttons to adjust the countdown time.
“t001” means solder iron will go to sleep in 1 minute. Timer is
adjustable from 1 to 60minutes.
5.
Confirm the change by activating the SOLDERING IRON switch.
6.
To DEACTIVATE this feature, simply follow the above
procedures. This time, select “tOFF” .
7. During sleep mode, the soldering iron temperature display
panel will show an all-dash, “- - - - ” .
8. To wake the soldering iron from sleep mode, press the
soldering iron temperature adjustment buttons.
H. Utilizing the Solder Iron Digital Temperature Calibration
By default, the system is properly calibrated but for some cases
when a little adjustment of the soldering iron temperature is required
the following procedure can be done.
1. Turn on the soldering iron function switch.
2. Set to appropriate temperature you want to calibrate. Place
the tip of the soldering iron on an external temperature
sensor.
3. The readings on the external temperature sensor should be
more or less equal to the displayed temperature.
4. If there are large discrepancy in the temperature reading we
can re-calibrate the temperature setting.
5. While the solder iron is operating make sure the hot air gun
is in off mode (“
0FF” is displayed on the panels “6” and “7”),
hold the air pressure UP button for a few seconds until four
zeroes are displayed “0000” .
