1. Caution!

Please read these Operating Instructions and the attached
Safety Information carefully prior to initial operation. Failure
to observe the safety warning may result in accident, injury,
or risk of health.
The Manufacturer shall not be liable for damage resulting
from misuse or unauthorized alterations of the equipment.
Safety Informations
● Always place the soldering iron in the original holder.
● Remove all inflammable objects from the proximity of
the hot soldering tool.
● Use suitable protective clothing to prevent the risk of
burns associated with molten solder.
● Never leave the hot soldering iron unattended.
● Never work on electrically live circuits or components.

2. Description

The WP 120 soldering iron is characterized by fast heat up
and precise control of the soldering tip temperature.
A particularly powerful 120 W heating element assures
excellent dynamic performance. The combination of slim
design and short distance from handle to soldering tip
means that universal application are possible, from
extremely fine soldering tasks to much heavier tasks
requiring high temperatures and high thermal capacity.
Tip grounding is designed into the soldering iron. With an
ESD safe, anti-static handle and cordset, the WP 120
satisfies all EOS and ESD requirements.

The tool meets all military and commercial soldering
specifications for tip grounding.
5. Information for Operation
Changing soldering tips
- Cool down soldering iron.
- Hold soldering iron horizontally.
- Grasp soldering iron on rear grip area (5) and loosen the
tip holder (2) by rotating clockwise
- Carefully remove tip holder (2) and tip from the front of the
tool.
- The soldering tip (1) is now loose in the tip holder (2) and
can be deposited onto the base of the metal Tool Stand.
- The tip holder should be used to store the tip on the back
of the Tool Stand until cool
Do not place or leave the hot soldering tip on the cleaning
sponge or on plastic surfaces.
When using several types of soldering tips, it is recommen-
ded to use the soldering tip (1) in conjunction with the tip
holder (2) as a fast change system. (see page 23).
Keep the heating element and solderin tip heat transfer
surfaces clean.
Anti-static plastics containing conducting fillers are used to
prevent static charge build-up. This also means that the
insulating properties of the plastic are reduced.
In addition to the information included in this manual,
please see the safety manual and the instructions for the
applicable power unit.
