Attach the duct
How to attach duct set

1. Refer to Figure 1 (right), and attach the nozzle and adapter to the duct. Insert the nozzle and adapter until it stops, turn the nozzle clockwise. Make sure the nozzle and adapter are firmly attached.
   CAUTION
   Twist the nozzle tight enough to avoid coming off.

2. Fit the net on the nozzle.

3. Insert the duct into the open port.
   If using one duct, ensure the cap is in place on the unused port. When using two ducts, please store the cap inside the main unit next to the main filter as shown in Figure 3 (right).

How to attach bench top hood .
When using a bench top hood, the following parts are required:

• 3 inch adapter
• 3 inch duct
• Duct clamp
• The standard duct for the HAKKO FA-430 can not be used to connect a bench top hood.

Fume extraction unit

1. Connect the power cord to the power receptacle on the right of the unit.

2. Plug the power cord into a ground wall socket.

3. Turn the power switch on. Power lamp will light
   CAUTION
   Close the cover before turning the power switch on.

4. Adjust the flow suitable for working environment by using flow selection switch.

5. Adjust the angle of the duct and nozzle as needed for optimal performance.

CAUTION

• Do not block the open port on purpose.
• When the fan is running, do not open the upper cover.
• Turn the power off when not in use. Failure to do so may result in shorter filter life.
• If it passes more than 2000 hours or one year since the HAKKO FA-430 is used, replace the main filter with new one at once. If using the main filter over replacement timing, doing so may result in damage to the main unit.

How to set the filter
The pre-filter and the main filter are pre-installed in the unit (without plastic bags) for your immediate use when delivered.

1. Open the upper cover.

2. Put the main filter on the main unit. Set the filter with the arrow pointing down (as shown in the illustration).

3. Fit the pre-filter on top of the main filter.
   CAUTION
   Be sure the pre-filter lies flat and completelycovers the top of the main filter with no gaps.

4. Close the upper cover.

MAINTENANCE

Performing proper and periodic maintenance extends the product life. Wear of the product will differ depending on work environment, the quality and quantity of the solder and flux. Apply the following service procedure as dictated by the conditions of the usage. HAKKO FA-430 counts used number of the pre-filter in order to determine the remaining llfe of the main filter. There are a few points to observe when replacing filters. Read “How to replace the filter” and follow the procedure. Replacing the filter without following the procedure may cause the overuse of the main filter and subsequent damage to the unit.

Filter replacement timing
Pre-filter: 80% of the pre-filter is clogged or it was used for 160 hours. (The orange lamp flashes.)
Main filter: When the 10th pre-filter needs replacing. (The orange and red lamp flash.)

CAUTION
Replacing the filter without following the procedure will disrupt the timing for filter replacement and may cause the overuse of the filters and subsequent damage to the unit.

How to replace the filter

NOTE:

• The lamp status indicates appropriate time to replace the main filter and pre-filter. If continuing to use the main filter or pre-filter after the lamp status indicates it is time for
  replacement, it may result in reduced performance and/or subsequent damage to the unit.

• When replacing the filter, set the flow selection switch to RESET without turning off the power switch.

Pre-filter
NOTE:
Do not lift the main filter when replacing the pre-filter. If the main filter is lifted for more than 3 seconds with the power switch on and the flow control set to RESET, the used number of
the pre-filter are reset to zero.

1. Pre-filter lamp (orange) flashes.
2. Set the flow selection switch to RESET with the power switch on. (The fan will stop.)
3. Open the upper cover and remove the pre-filter only. Fit the new pre-filter on top of the main filter so that it lies flat with no gaps, then close the upper cover.
4. set the flow selection switch back to the previous position.
   The fan will start running and the unit will return to a normal operating condition.

Main filter

1. Pre-filter lamp (orange) and main filter lamp (red) flash.
2. Set the flow selection switch to RESET with the power switch on. (The fan will stop.)
3. Open the upper cover and then remove both main filter and pre-filter. Replace the filters with the new filters, fit them in the main unit and close the upper cover.
4. Set the flow selection switch back to the previous position.
   The fan will start running and the unit will return to a normal operating condition.

Pre-filter lamp (orange) and main filter lamp (red) flash, but if you can not replace the main filter immediately, observe the following procedure.

1. Pre-filter lamp (orange) and main filter lamp (red) flash.
2. Set the flow selection switch to RESET with the power switch on. (The fan will stop.)
3. Open the upper cover and then remove the pre-filter only. Fit the new pre-filter on top of the main filter so that it lies flat with no gaps, then close the upper cover.
4. set the flow selection switch back to the previous position.
   After 5 seconds are passed, the red lamp will be turned off.

CAUTION
Main filter lamp (red) will flash for 5 seconds every time the power switch is turned on. Performance of the main filter is reduced. Replace it at once.
