How should I clean the soldering tip?

Troubleshooting

Soldering gun does not heat up.

Check the power connection and ensure the gun is plugged in correctly. Verify that the outlet is working. Check the fuse.

Solder is not melting.

Ensure the soldering tip is clean. Check if the solder is appropriate for the application. Make sure the soldering gun tip is touching both the solder and the components being joined. Allow enough time for the tip to reach the required temperature.

Poor solder joints.

Clean the surfaces being soldered. Apply flux correctly. Ensure proper temperature and sufficient contact time between the solder and the surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Setup: Connect the soldering gun to a 230V power supply via the approved plug.
  2. Compatibility: Ensure the power supply matches the gun's voltage (230V).
