How to Solder
File off any dirt, rust or paint on the parts you wish to solder.
Heat the parts with the soldering iron.
Apply resin-based solder to the part and melt it with the soldering iron.
NOTE: Be sure to apply a solder paste to the part before applying non
resin-based solder.
Wait for the solder to cool and harden before moving the soldered part.
CAUTION: Handle a heated soldering iron with extreme care as the high
temperatures may cause burns.
The soldering iron may produce smoke at first use due to a dried out
heating element. This is normal and should only last for approx. 10
minutes.
Never file the soldering tip.
Use a soldering iron stand in order to avoid burns.
The temperature of the soldering iron will drop if it is used without the
tip.
Let the soldering iron cool after use.
The mains cable of this device should not be replaced. Discard the
device if the power cable has been damaged.
