Soldering

Vapours can lead to headaches and
fatigue if inhaled.
■ The soldering iron has a rated power output of
30 watts and is ideal for electronic solders.
■ Its design makes it especially suitable for
difficult-to-access and fine soldering work.
GB
■ The best results are achieved with electronic
solder, 1.0 or 1.5 mm diameter, 60% Sn, 40%
Pb. We recommend using contact solder paste
as a flux (not solder paste or soldering fluid).
♦ Clean the soldering tip
sponge .
♦ After cleaning, the soldering tip must be tinned.
Tin the hot soldering iron by melting the solder.
♦ Guide the soldering tip to the solder and heat it.
♦ Place the solder (with flux) between the solder
joint and soldering tip to melt it.
♦ Keep feeding in solder until the entire solder
joint is moistened.
♦ Then remove the soldering tip immediately to
prevent overheating the molten solder.
♦ Allow the solder to harden and avoid vibrations.
NOTE
► The flux is either included in the solder or it is
applied separately.
When buying the solder ask about its use
and the appropriate flux.
