Setting Into Operation - Monacor SIC-520ROHS Mode D'emploi

3 Setting into Operation

IMPORTANT! To avoid damage by overheating,
the soldering station must not be operated with-
out soldering tip .
1) Connect the soldering iron to the soldering
station: Connect the plug (9) of the soldering
iron to the jack (6) .
2) Slide the soldering iron support (1) into the
slot (2) .
3) Connect the mains plug of the soldering
station to a socket (230 V/ 50 Hz) .
4) To switch on the station, press the toggle
switch (7) . The POWER LED (5) and the HEATER
LED (4) light up .
5) Set the desired temperature (150 – 420 °C) with
the rotary control (8) . The temperature LEDs
(3) show the heating-up temperature or the
temperature of the soldering tip . During the
heat-up phase, the HEATER LED lights up . The
LED goes out when the adjusted temperature
has been reached .
6) To switch off the station, press the toggle
switch .
4 Replacement of the
Soldering Tip
1) Prior to replacing the soldering tip, switch off
the station with the toggle switch (7) and dis-
connect the station from the mains . Allow the
screw sleeve (10) and the soldering tip (11) to
cool down to room temperature .
2) Use your fingers to unscrew the screw sleeve
from the soldering iron tube .
3) Remove any oxide residues from the solder-
ing iron tube . While blowing oxide particles
out of the tube, provide a corresponding eye
protection .
4) Replace the soldering tip (e . g . by soldering tips
of the MONACOR series SIT-5 . .ROHS) and use
your finders to fasten the screw sleeve . Make
sure not to fasten the screw sleeve too tightly;
the heating element may be damaged .

5 Notes on Correct Soldering
1 . Prior to operation, ensure a tight fit of the sol-
dering tip .
2 . Always keep the soldering tip clean and make
sure that sufficient soldering tin is applied to
the tip, especially before switching off the sol-
dering station .
3 . Prior to soldering, remove any impurities from
the parts to be soldered .
4 . To protect the soldering station and the solder-
ing tip, do not operate the station at temper-
atures of 400 °C or higher for a longer period
of time .
6 Cleaning the Soldering Station
Prior to cleaning, always switch off the sol-
dering station and disconnect it from the
mains! For cleaning the housing of the soldering
station and the handle of the soldering iron, use
a damp cloth and a small quantity of cleaning
fluid . Do not use any aggressive detergents or
chemicals . When cleaning, make sure that no
fluid will enter the unit!
