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.
Removing Sealing Plug
