CHOOSING THE CORRECT DESOLDER CARTRIDGE
Proper tip cartridge selection is important for getting the best results from your Metcal
System. Choosing the right tip cartridge will maximize your performance at the lowest
possible temperature. Since changing the tip cartridge is so quick and easy, there is no
need to compromise.
ATTACHING THE AIR HOSE TO THE DESOLDER HANDPIECE
1. Make sure the system is turned off.
2. Clamp the Desoldering Power Cord
to the air line using the clamp,
making sure that the end of the
Power Cord is four inches beyond the
end of the air line
3. Attach the desoldering air line to the
DS1 hand-piece by using the swivel
fitting. A wrench is not needed, but
the connection should be as tight as
your fingers can make it.
4. Attach the other end of the Air Line to
your air supply, using a filter/regulator
to maintain the proper psi. Operating the desoldering tool above 100 psi could
cause the air line to rupture. The tool works best when the air supply is set at
5,5 bar (80 psi).
PREPARING THE DESOLDER HAND-PIECE
1. Open the hand-piece by sliding the top grooved portion forward.
2. Pivot the top of the hand-piece open.
3. Apply a thin layer of silicone grease inside the top of the chamber. This will aid
in keeping the roof of the chamber clear of incidental solder splatter.
4. Inspect the chamber seal to be sure it is clean and is not cut or damaged.
INSERTING FILTERS INTO THE DESOLDER HANDPIECE
1. Open the hand-piece. CAUTION: THE TIP MAY BE HOT!
2. Insert a new Chamber Liner in the rectangular cavity. Be sure to orient the tab
toward the back of the hand-piece.
