If the scanning process does not run automatically, tap “scan” (6) on the display while the tool remains in the charging holder. When the tool is shown on the display, select it to be connected (7) and start working with it.

Locate Tool (Search Function): When in doubt of which tool corresponds to the tool’s name, use the Locate Tool function. Tap on the magnifying glass symbol (8) next to the tool’s name. The light band on the corresponding tool blinks in blue for five seconds to identify it.

Working with two tools (works also for charging bases with only one charging holder): It is possible to connect up to two tools at the same time. If a tool is already connected, first select “Menu” (9) and tap on “Disconnect” to disconnect it from the device.

Place the second tool in the charging holder and scan it (6). The second tool is also shown on the display (10). To work with two tools, select one from the left-hand column (11) and the other one from the righthand column (10). Then tap on “CONNECT” (7).

Safety Cap

Thanks to their safety cap, B·IRON handles can be transported safely, even with the cartridge inserted.

Handle

When the cap is placed onto the handle, the cartridge stops heating, data transfer is cut off and the handle is disconnected from the station.

Cap

If the cap is removed before 60 minutes, the

tool reconnects and heats up immediately. After

60 minutes with the cap on and without any

movement, the handle turns off completely and

it is necessary to reactivate it:

Charging Holder

To reactivate and turn on the handle, the cap must be removed and the handle inserted in the charging holder so that the station recognizes the handle.
Important: After use, it is recommended to leave the tool in the charging holder until the next use so that it is ready and fully charged. The function of the cap is to allow safe transport, not storage.

While the handle is in use, the cap can be stored on the cap holder located on the back of the charging base. There is space for two caps.
If desired, the cap holder can be detached by removing the screw (1).

Operation

JBC JBC’s Most Efficient Soldering System
This revolutionary technology recovers tip temperature extremely quickly. This allows the user to work at a lower temperature.

Work

Charge Mode

Sleep Mode

When the tool is lifted from the tool holder, the tip of the assembled cartridge heats up to the selected working temperature.

While the tool remains in the tool holder, it charges and the tip gradually cools down to room temperature.

If Sleep Mode is activated (see section “Settings”), upon placing the tool in its holder, besides charging it enters Sleep Mode. The tip temperature drops down and remains at Sleep temperature.

Hibernation Mode

Automatic Turn Off

JBC

InInaacctitvivee 55mminin

Turning the Tool Back On

When the tool is away from the tool holder and remains inactive (no movement for at least 10 seconds), it goes into Hibernation Mode and the tip temperature gradually cools down to room temperature.

If the tool has been inactive for a longer period of time (at least 5 minutes), it automatically turns off.

After automatically turning off, put the tool back in the holder to turn it on again.
6 W

Note: The tool can also be switched off/on manually. Tap the Tool power switch on the display (bottom right) to switch it off/ on (if the tool is turned off, it will remain connected up to 5 minutes to the station but will not heat up the cartridge).

Place the handle over a cartridge and press the handle down to insert the cartridge.

Retention Clamps

Cartridge Retention
Cartridges are held in place inside the cartridge exchanger thanks to the retention clamps (5), with the advantage that the cartridges do not fall into the exchanger and the cartridge tips are therefore protected.
The cartridge exchanger of B·IRON stations works with C210 and C115 Cartridges.

C210 Cartridge Retention Area

The holding area of C210 Cartridges goes from the collar of the tip until the cartridge begins to widen (x).

Replacing Sealing Plugs

The sealing plug prevents undesirable flux vapors or particles from entering the handle. 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 a vertical position.

Note: Choose between the two available sealing plug references depending on your handle model.
Before replacing the sealing plug, disconnect the handle from the station and make sure the device is not hot.

Maintenance

Before carrying out maintenance, always extract the cartridge from the tool and disconnect the charging base from the mains. Allow the equipment to cool down.

– 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 charging holder are clean so that the charging works properly.

– Keep the 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.
– Do not use liquids such as alcohol, thinner or benzene to clean the portable display.

Clean the contact surfaces regularly to ensure that the tool gets charged correctly.

– Repairs should only be performed by a JBC authorized technical service.

24

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 a fire. – The power cord must be plugged into approved bases. When unplugging it, hold the plug, not the wire. – Do not attempt to dismantle or open the housing of the tool as it may cause damage. – Do not work on electrically live parts. – The tool should be placed in the charging holder when not in use in order to charge the batteries. – The soldering tip, the metal part of the tool and the charging holder may still be hot even when the
station is turned off. – Do not leave the tool unattended when it is on. – 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 the 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. – Do not expose the portable display to high temperatures, humidity or dust. Avoid direct sunlight. – Do not drop the portable display or the tool, as it may cause damage or malfunction. – Do not disconnect your device when it is in file transfer mode. – Do not use the portable display in places where wireless communications are restricted.
