Maintenance
Before carrying out maintenance, always switch the device off and disconnect it from the mains. Allow the equipment to cool down.
– 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.
– Maintain tip surface clean and tinned prior to storage in order to avoid tip oxidation. Rusty and dirty surfaces reduce heat transfer to the solder joint.
– 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. Only use original JBC spare parts.
– 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.

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.
