must be completely clean and
free of grease.

coated with soldering tin. Only
good tin coating ensures perfect
soldering and heat transfer
• Mak

scaling and excess soldering tin.
Clean the soldering tip regularly
with a wet sponge. Never use a
• Before soldering, establish a me-
chanical connection between the
metals which are to be connected
together if possible. For example,
twist the wires together so that
they do not slip. In this way you
will obtain stable soldering points
and avoid heat damage through
excessive soldering.
• F
hold the soldering tip on the
some solder
point. If the tin has spread,
remove the soldering iron and
allow the soldering point to cool
down without vibrations. Never
heat solder directly and do not
use too much solder

fore you store it away.
The soldering tip reaches
temperatures of over
