Flame lengt or temperature adjustment
After ignition, turn the flow control knob (6) to the right to increase the flame length of the torch or the temperature of soldering tip or hot air, to the left to decrease the flame length or the temperature.
Operating tips
- After filling or refilling with gas, wait for approximately 2 minutes so that the gas in the cylinder can be stable.
- Soldering tips must be tin-plated before using them for the first time. A thin layer of solder should be applied to the tip when it has been heated.
- Soldering should NOT be carried out on “live” circuits, as this soldering unit does notpossess any special electrical insulation
- Keep your soldering sponge moist
How to fit or replace different accessoires
Always allow unit to cool before removing or replacing tips
Replace soldering tips
- With 7 mm wrench (15) on the soldering tip or hot blow head (9 till 14) and 8 mm wrench on the soldering head (4), you can tight the tip or hot blow head or unscrew them.
- When you unscrew the nut (3), you can remove the guard (8) and soldering head (4). Now the unit becomes an open flame torch.
