Features – T210 Precision Handles

T210 Handles are suitable for precision soldering jobs with medium power requirements. Due to their size, they are ideal for conventional or small SMD soldering jobs, even under a microscope. They come with soft foam grip to ensure a better manual control of the tool and a greater comfort when working.

T210 Handles are supplied with 1.5 m cable length and work with C210 cartridges (not included).

Place the cartridge in the extractor and pull the handle to remove it.

Place the handle on top of the new cartridge and press the handle down.

Use the holes to fix the cartridge as follows:

• A. For curved C210
• B. For C245
• C. For straight C210
• D. Cartridge Holder

Note : It is essential to insert the cartridge as far as the mark for a proper connection.

Changing Cartridges – T470 Handles

1. Removing
   

2. Inserting
   
   

3. Fixing
   
   

Loosen the handle screw. Place the soldering iron with the cartridge in the extractor and pull the handle to remove it.

Place the handle on top of the new cartridge and press the handle down.

Note: After proper cartridge insertion as far as the mark , tighten the handle screw.

Changing Nitrogen Nozzles

If the outer cartridge diameter D1 is smaller than the inner nozzle diameter D2, the nozzle can be removed without removing the cartridge.

When the nozzle is hot, use pliers to remove the nozzle.

If the outer cartridge diameter D1 is larger than the inner nozzle diameter D2. The cartridges must be removed first before the nozzle can be removed.

For T470 Handle loose the screw and remove the cartrige. Afterwards de nozzle can be removed

When the nozzle is hot, use pliers to remove it.

Put the slide-on tabs into the new grip.

Push the grip with the tabs onto the handle.

Hold the grip and pull the tab. Use pliers if necessary.

Replacing Sealing Plugs

The sealing plug prevents undesirable flux vapors or particles from entering inside the tool. Its usage is highly recommended for intensive applications when soldering is exposed to FOD environments or for applications where the soldering iron works close to vertical position.

Note: Choose the correct sealing plug depending on your handle model.
Before replacing the sealing plug, unplug the power supply and make sure the device is not hot.
