Solder sponge

contact with a dry solder sponge 5 , otherwise the solder sponge
may be damaged.
The solder sponge 5 is used to clean soldering tips.
Moisten the solder sponge 5 before you use it.
Q
Soldering
— The soldering pencil has a rated output of 48 watts and is therefore
ideal for electronics soldering (see Figs. A, B).
— The design of the soldering pencil makes it especially suitable for
use where access is difficult or for fine soldering work.
Clean the soldering tip 7 on the moist solder sponge 5 .
After cleaning the tip 7 it must be “tinned” (coated with solder).
This is done by melting solder on to the hot soldering tip 7 .
Guide the soldering tip 7 to the intended joint site and heat the joint.
Place the solder (with flux) between the joint site and the tip 7
to melt it.
