Safety Instructions; Starting Operation - Weller DSX 80 Betriebsanleitung

English

1. Safety instructions

The manufacturer assumes no liability for uses other than those described in the operating instructions,
or for unauthorized alterations. These operating instructions and safety instructions should be read
carefully and kept in an easily visible location in the vicinity of the soldering iron.
Non-observance of these safety instructions can result in accidents, injury or risks to health.
1. Caution, risk of burns!
Even after switch off or removal, the suction tip needs some time to cool down.
2. Always place desoldering tools not in use in the original holder.
3. Do not place any flammable objects near the hot desoldering tool.
4. Antistatic plastics are be treated with conducting material to prevent static charging.
This reduces the insulation properties of the plastic.
5. Work must not be performed on parts that are powered.
2. Connection
The Weller DSX 80 antistatic can be connected to all electronically regulated desoldering equipment
with 80 W connectors. To avoid the connection to any less powerful controlunits, the DS 80 is equipped
with a special 7 pin plug.

3. Starting operation

Place desoldering iron into safety holder and connect 7-pin arresting plug to socket at the front of the
unit. Put vacuum tube to connection nipple of the main filter.
Switch on unit. Set temperature to 300°C. The light emitting diode for the visual check on regulation
illuminates.
Intermittent light means that the selected temperature has been reached.
No lumination means that the actual temperatur is higher than the selected temperature.
Continuous lumination means that system heats - actual temperature is below set temperature.
The suction process is starting by actuating the finger-switch.
When desoldering it should be observed that the suction tip is held vertically to the circuit board surface.
Solder must be completely fluid (very important in case of circuit boards with contacted through-holes).
Suck up the solder in a single operation while circularly moving the connection pin of the component
within the hole. If the solder is not completely removed after the sucking operation (mostly caused by
air-entrance through inclined suction nozzles or by inadequate heating-up) the soldering joint should
be tinned before desoldering. Regular retinning increases the lifetime of tiplets.
