Setting Up No. 483

1. Remove two screws on the side of the case and assemble the Iron stand as per Fig. 3.
2. The nozzle hole of the unused new nozzle is stopped by pre-tinning, but it will open when iron 1s is heated and the vacuum pump is moved. (Fig. 3)
3. Remove a packing cover on the vacuum outlet retainer (not shown). Screw on the vacuum outlet cap (Fig. 4, Item 4) with a white felt filter (Fig.4, Item 3) to the vacuum outlet retainer (Fig.4, Item 2).

Operating Procedures

1. Connect the desoldering iron connector plug to the iron connector (Fig. 1, Item 14) and the suction hose line to the vacuum outlet cap (Fig. 1, Item 7). Place the desoldering iron into the iron stand (Fig. 1, Item 11) and adjust the angle of the stand.

2. Plug the power cord (Fig. 1. Item 3) into the power supply.

3. Adjust the nozzle temperature employing the heat control dial (Fig. 1, Item 17).
   Temperature control dial
   Low – approx. 300’C ( 572°F)
   Mid – approx. 350°C ( 662°F)
   High- approx. 400°C ( 752°F)

4. Turn the power switch on. Make sure that the power switch light is on, and wait for approx. 10 minutes for the desoldering iron to heat up.
   Caution Never attempt to use the iron before it has sufficiently heated up as the hole in the nozzle or the inside of the heating core may become clogged with cold solder and flux.
   Clean the nozzle with the provided nozzle pin ( small pin). Remove the nozzle from the soldering iron and clean the heating core with the
   provided heating core cleaning pin (large pin).

5. After 10 minutes, insert the supplied nozzle cleaning pin into the hole in the nozzle to remove any material that may be clogging the nozzle or the heating core.

6. Place the nozzle on the lead of the component to be removed and gently move the iron back and forth for 2 or 3 seconds. When the lead begins to move freely, the solder is sufficiently melted. Pull the desoldering iron trigger, and the vacuum pump will absorb the melted so Ider.
   Note : If the solder is not sufficiently melted, the component will not be properly desoldered due to insufficient suction.
   Should this occur, resolder the component and repeat the desoldering process from step 5 above,

RECOMMENDED DAILY MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Procedure of Nozzle & Heating Core.
*Turn the unit on, and allow the unit to warm up. (Approx 10 minutes)

1. Clean the Nozzle after every 150-200 desoldering operations with the Cleaning Wrench or Sma] 1 Cleaning Pin.
2. Clean the Heating Core after every 800-1000 desoldering operations with the Large Cleaning Pin.

Heating Core Cleaning Procedure

1. Turn the Nozzle counterclockwise with a Cleaning Wrench and remove it.
2. Insert the Large Cleaning Pin and turn the p,n several times.
3. After making sure that the Cleaning Pin can pass through smoothly, apply anti-seize on the threads of the Nozzle and the Heating Core.
4. Insert the Small Cleaning Pin and clean the Nozzle again.
   Desoldering Iron may be clogged with solder, flux, etc, and that can cause a decrease in the suction power. So, we recommend the above Daily Maintenance.

Maintenance

A) Replacement of the Filters in the Desoldering iron
Should the suction power of the design iron become reduced due to the accumulated solder in the filter pipe (Fig. 2, Item 2 )  replace the steel wool and felt filters (Fig. 2, Items 21 & 22) in the following manner.

1. Pull the knob (Fig. 2, Item 19) at the back of the desoldering iron out and turn it approx. 90° to either the left or light

2. Remove the filter pipe (Fig.2, Item 2) from the desoldering iron by sliding it out approx. 5 mm ( 0.2 in) and lifting it up and out.
   Caution:

3. If the filter pipe is hot, turn the power switch off and wait until the pipe has cooled, or wear a glove while handling it.

4. Do not drop the filter pipe. It is made of Pyrex glass and 1s very fragile.

5. Remove the accumulated solder from the filter pipe. If necessary, replace the steel wool and felt filters. The felt filter should be replaced whenever it has become colored or hardened with flux.
   Caution : Never attempt to use the desoldering iron without the filters in place as the vacuum pump may become damaged.
   Note: Be sure to insert the filters so that the felt filter (Fig. 2. Item

21. is at the back and the stee 1 wool filter (Fig.2, Item 22) is at the front of it.

B) Replacement of the Vacuum Outlet Retainer Filter

Should the suction power remain weak after replacing the filters, the felt filter in the vacuum outlet retainer (Fig. 4, Item 2) must be replaced. This should be done as follows.

1. Turn the vacuum outlet cap (Fig. 4. Item 4; to the left and remove it.
2. Replace the white felt filter (Fig.4. Item 3) that is inside the vacuum outlet retainer (Fig.4. Item2)
   Note : The felt filter in the vacuum outlet retainer is the same one used in the filter pipe

C) Replacement of the Nozzle

1. Use pliers to unscrew (counterclockwise) the nozzle (Fig. 5, Item 6).

2. Coat the threads of the new nozzle with the supplied anti-seizing lubricant and screw the nozzle onto the desoldering iron
   Note:

3. The nozzle should be replaced while the desoldering iron is hot as solder may be binding the nozzle to the heating core (Fig. 5, Item 7).

4. Be careful not to overtighten the new nozzle as you may strip the threads.

5.  At the end of each day of use. loosen the nozzle to prevent
