12. Changing the soldering tip

Depending on the soldering work you wish to complete, you may need to change the soldering tip (a number of solder-
ing tips are available to order as accessories).
Compatible accessories can be purchased at www.conrad.com on the corresponding product page (enter
the soldering station item number in the search box).
Only use soldering tips that are recommended for use with the soldering station.
Using other soldering tips may result in false temperature measurements (i.e. the actual temperature of the
soldering tip is different to the temperature shown on the display) and damage the heating element, which
will void the warranty/guarantee!
Use a very fine soldering tip when working with small components and a wider/flatter tip for larger components. A
larger soldering tip can transfer more heat, which speeds up the soldering process.
The soldering tip is subjected to a mechanical and thermal load during use. Over time, the soldering tip will
become blunt (especially with very fine soldering tips), meaning that you will not be able to solder precisely
on small components.
The lifespan of the soldering tip depends on several factors. For example, high soldering temperatures
significantly reduce the lifespan.
Follow the steps below to replace the soldering tip:
• Turn off the soldering station and let the soldering iron cool down completely.
• Loosen and remove the cap nut (16) on the metal shaft of the soldering iron.
The heating/cooling process may cause the cap nut to become very tight.
If so, loosen the cap nut (16) with a pair of pliers. However, do not use any force, as this may damage the
heating element and void the warranty/guarantee!
• Remove the soldering tip from the heating element.
• Insert a new soldering tip onto the heating element.
• Replace the cap nut and tighten it with your hand. Do not use any force!
• If you have a suitable temperature measurement device, calibrate the soldering tip temperature (see section 10. d).
