Troubleshooting
Station troubleshooting available on the product page at
www.jbctools.com
Advanced functionalities
To work with profiles it is essential to use the RWB / RWS / RWT rework arms.
The Rework Arms supports the Hot Air Heater maintaining the distance and
position to the component.
In this mode you can set up or edit as many as 25 profiles of temperature and
air flow.
Graphics
By pressing Graphics in the main MENU, temperature and power fi gures in
real time are displayed. This helps you decide which tip to use to obtain the
best quality solder joints.

Using the Thermocouple type K
Connect a TC type K (PH218) to the station and use it as a protection or
regulation sensor. You can define its use mode by means of the “Ext TC mode”
option in the “Tool” menu.
You can choose from two work modes:
Regulation: the station regulates the air temperature automatically to
maintain the External Thermocouple (TC) temperature.
Protection: the station cuts the air supply off when the External
Thermocouple (TC) temperature is reached.
IPC* does not recommend exceeding ramp-up rates over 3-4ºC / sec. (5-7ºF / sec) so as to reduce the risk of thermal stress on the PCB.
- IPC was founded in the U.S. in 1957 as the Institute for Printed Circuits.

Replacing the Heating Element
Only perform this operation when the element is cold and the unit is disconnected from the mains.
- Loosen the screw.
- Pull the heating element away from the handle.
- Connect the new heating element, ensuring it is pushed all the way in.
- Tighten the screw.
Changing the TE-TB Heater Hose Set
- Ensure that the tool is turned off.
- Use a spanner to unscrew the nut.
- Make sure that the new heater tube fits into the grooves in the socket.
- Tighten the screw.
Maintenance
Before carrying out maintenance, always allow the equipment to cool.
- Clean the station screen with a glass cleaner or a damp cloth.
- Use a damp cloth to clean the casing and the tool. Alcohol can only be used to clean the metal parts.
- Periodically check that the metal parts of the tool and stand are clean so that the station can detect the tool status.
- Periodically check all cables and tubes.
- Replace a blown fuse as follows:
- Pull off the fuse holder and remove the fuse. If necessary use a tool to lever it off.
- Insert the new fuse into the fuse holder and return it to the station.
- Replace any defective or damaged pieces. Use original JBC spare parts only.
- Repairs should only be performed by a JBC authorized technical service.
Safety
It is imperative to follow safety guidelines to prevent electric shock, injury, fire or explosion.
-
Do not use the units for any purpose other than soldering or rework. Incorrect use may cause fire.
-
The power cord must be plugged into approved bases. Be sure that it is properly grounded before use. When unplugging it, hold the plug, not the wire.
-
Do not work on electrically live parts.
-
The tool should be placed in the stand when not in use in order to activate the sleep mode.
The soldering tip, the metal part of the tool and the stand may still be hot even when the station is turned off. Handle with care, including when adjusting the stand position. -
Do not leave the appliance unattended when it is on.
-
Do not cover the ventilation grills. Heat can cause inflamable products to ignite.
-
Avoid flux coming into contact with skin or eyes to prevent irritation.
-
Be careful with the fumes produced when soldering.
-
Keep your workplace clean and tidy. Wear appropriate protection glasses and gloves when working to avoid personal harm.
-
Utmost care must be taken with liquid tin waste which can cause burns.
-
This appliance can be used by children over the age of eight and also persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience provided that they have been given adequate supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance and understand the hazards involved. Children must not play with the appliance.
-
Maintenance must not be carried out by children unless supervised.
