SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Always use a grounded outlet for the unit.
2. Always turn the power off and unplug the unit when not in use.
3. Never use the soldering iron near any flammable substance,
material, or gas.
4. Never touch the metallic components of the soldering iron while
the unit is on. They are extremely hot and will cause serious burns
instantly.
5. Always turn the power off, unplug the unit, and let it fully cool down
before attempting to replace any parts (tips, heating element, etc.)
6. Use only genuine replacement parts for this unit.
7. Do not use the unit for any application other than soldering.
8. Do not tap the soldering iron against the work bench to remove
residual solder.
9. Do not modify the unit in any way.
10. When replacing consumable parts, only use approved
manufacturer parts.
11. Do not get the unit wet or use when your hands are wet.
12. The soldering process will produce smoke - ensure the area is well
ventilated.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the soldering iron in the holder.
2. Turn the unit on with the power switch on the back of the unit.
3. Set the desired temperature using the TEMP UP and DOWN
buttons on the right side of the unit or by pressing one of the
Preset Memory Channels. This temperature will show in the lower
left corner of the display.
4. Wait for the unit to stabilize at the desired temperature. The actual
temperature of the heating element/soldering tip is displayed on
the top of the display. See page 6 for a detailed diagram of the
display screen.
5. Remove the iron from the holder and flood the tip with a good
quality rosin core solder-preferably 63/37 or 60/40 grade solder.
6. Wipe the tip across the moist sponge or dip the iron into the brass
sponge to remove excess solder. The tip should then be shiny.
7. The soldering iron is now ready to solder. Proceed according to
your standard working practice.
FEATURES
CELSIUS / FAHRENHEIT CONVERSION
To switch between displaying the temperature in Celsius or
Fahrenheit, press the SET once quickly. The display will toggle
between °C / °F.
MUTE / UNMUTE FUNCTION
The unit beeps when buttons are pushed or when it goes into
sleep mode. To toggle between Mute and Unmute Mode, press
and hold the SET button for 3 seconds. When the unit is Muted
a Red speaker with a line through it will appear, when the unit is
Unmuted a White speaker will appear.
SET MEMORY PRESET CHANNELS
Turn the unit on, set the desired temperature by pressing the
TEMP UP or DOWN arrows on the right side of the unit. Wait
for the unit to stabilize at the desired temperature. Then to set
a Channel Preset, press and hold the channel button to be
programmed for 5 seconds. The unit will beep and the channel has
been set.

LOCK / UNLOCK MODE
The unit can be locked once it is set so that none of the buttons
on the front of the unit will engage. If the unit is turned off while in
Locked Mode, it will still be locked when the unit is turned back on.
The unit WILL still go into and out of Sleep Mode while it is locked.
To toggle between Locked and Unlocked Modes, press and
hold the CH2 & CH3 buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. The
indicator on the display will show a Red closed lock when the unit
is locked and a White open lock when the unit is unlocked.
CALIBRATION FUNCTION
When is it time to Calibrate your Soldering Station?
All X-Tronic Soldering Stations come with a high quality ceramic
heating element in the soldering iron that is calibrated to within
±3.6°F/2.0°C of the temperature that is shown on the LED Display.
While calibrating to the exact temperature is the ultimate goal, this
heating element and tip design is as close as can be achieved with
this technology.
The age of the heating element, the hours of use, and the
temperature at which the soldering iron is regularly used will affect
the life of the heating element and can cause fatigue. When a
heating element begins to fatigue, the heat that is transferred to
the soldering tip from the heating element will begin to drop. If the
typical temperature used to solder is not working as well as when it
was new, then it might be time to calibrate the unit.
Note: Heating elements are consumable parts for soldering stations.
There will come a time when the heating element stops working
due to age and/or too much deterioration. At this point, it will need
to be replaced and cannot be calibrated. Heating elements for this
unit can be found on our website (XTronicUSA.com).
Calibration Instructions
Once the desired temperature has been set and the temperature
of the unit stabilizes, measure the heat at the soldering tip using
a high quality and well calibrated soldering tip tester. If the
temperature shown on the unit’s display does not reflect the
temperature shown on the tester, the unit can be calibrated by
simply pushing the CAL UP or DOWN buttons on the left side of
the unit to compensate for the degrees of variance.
Note: This unit can be calibrated VERY EASILY, if this feature is used
please be aware that without proper testing equipment and
methods, the outcome could be less than desirable.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Infrared (IR) Thermometers should NOT be used to measure the
temperature of the soldering tip as they often provide inaccurate
readings. All IR Thermometers are different and the capability
depends on the Distance to Spot (D:S) ratio of the model being
used. Many IR thermometers have a D:S ratio of 8:1 or 12:1
which means that the thermometer needs to be a distance of 8”
or 12” in order to read a 1” spot size. The tip of a soldering iron is
approximately 2 to 3 mm (.07-.11”), requiring the thermometer to
be 0.8” or 1.2” away from the tip. However, the IR thermometer
also has a minimum distance it needs to be away from the object.
Most IR thermometers will not be capable of measuring such a
small spot size and will provide disappointing calibration results.
SLEEP FUNCTION
If the soldering iron sits idle in the soldering iron holder for 10
minutes (default time), Sleep Mode will be activated. The screen
will switch to “---” and the soldering iron will cool down to 200°C
(392°F). The unit will beep (if not muted) to indicate when Sleep
Mode is activated. To bring the unit out of Sleep Mode, simply pick
up the soldering iron from the holder.
Note: The unit will NOT go into sleep mode unless the soldering iron is
in the holder.
To change the default time before sleep mode is activated, turn
the unit off with the switch on the back of the unit. Press and hold
the CH1 button while switching the unit on. Continue holding the
CH1 button for 3 seconds, the Set Temperature display (lower
left corner) will change to show the number of minutes before
sleep mode activates. Once this changes, release the CH1 button
and use the TEMP up and down buttons to set the sleep time.
The sleep timer can be set between 00-30 minutes, in 1 minute
increments. Once the desired time has been set, press the CH1
button again and the setting will be saved.
Note: Setting the sleep timer at “00” will turn the sleep function off and
the unit will NOT go to sleep regardless of how long the unit sits
idle in the soldering station holder. It is not recommended to turn
the sleep timer off for normal use. The use of the sleep timer will
help extend the life of the heating element and tip if the unit is left
on for long periods of time.
