Resetting The Password - TOOLCRAFT ST-100HF Bedienungsanleitung

f) Resetting the password
If you forget the password that you set in section 10. e), the front side of the soldering station has to be removed so
that you can reset the password.
This must only be done by people who are trained to repair electrical equipment. Improper use may dam-
age the soldering station and cause a fatal electric shock!
If in doubt, ask a technician to reset the password; do not attempt to reset it yourself.
Follow the steps below:
• Switch the soldering off using the on/off switch ("O" = off).
• Disconnect the soldering station from the mains voltage (remove the plug from the mains socket). Remove the
mains cable from the power-in socket (6) on the soldering station. Leave the soldering iron connected.
• Remove the four screws on the front of the soldering station, and then remove the plastic ring. You can then fold
down the front side with the circuit board.
• On the back of the circuit board you will find two contacts (see following diagram). These contacts were marked as
"X5" when these operating instructions were published. However, you should also be able to find the contacts by
referring to the diagram (the contacts are circled in the diagram):
• Connect these two contacts, e.g. using a jumper/terminal.
• Position the circuit so that it is not in contact with the metal housing.
• Reconnect the soldering station to the mains and switch it on.
Do not reach into the soldering station or touch any electrical contacts. Touching contacts that carry a high
voltage may cause a fatal electric shock! Always hold the front plate around the edges. Make sure that the
circuit board is not in contact with the metal housing of the soldering station.
• "PASSWD. RESET!" will be displayed on the LC display and the password will be reset to the factory default ("000").
