11. Procedure for Cleaning the Solder Collector
CAUTION : Put the main power switch in the "OFF"-position and allow the device to cool first.
1. Hold the soldering iron as shown in fig. 8. Press and turn the switch at the butt of the iron.
2. Be careful not to burn your fingers on the glass solder collector as you slide it free (see fig. 9).
3. Point the collector towards the ground (see fig. 10) while shaking lightly to free the excess
solder. Do this frequently to keep the station in proper working order.
4. Remove the cooling strip with a pair of pliers (fig. 11 & 12).
5. Clean the cooling strip and the glass collector with a wire brush (included).
