5. Instruccions de funcionament

5.1 Funcionament general

1. Encès/apagat: Use the main power switch on the front panel to turn the unit on or off. The LCD display will illuminate upon power-on.
2. Ajust de temperatura: Use the up/down arrow buttons next to each tool's display to adjust the temperature.
3. Canals de memòria: The unit features 6 preset memory channels (3 for soldering/desoldering, 3 for hot air). Press the 'Memory' button to cycle through or save settings.

5.2 Estació de soldadura

The soldering iron offers precise temperature control for various soldering applications.

• Interval de temperatura: 200 °C a 480 °C.
• Funcionament: Set the desired temperature using the controls. Allow the iron to heat up. Apply solder to the joint while touching the tip to the component lead and pad.
• Mode de repòs: The soldering iron features a sleep mode (0-99 minutes) to minimize wear and allow for quick startup.

5.3 Hot Air Rework Station

Ideal for SMD component rework, heat shrinking, and plastic welding.

• Interval de temperatura: 100 °C a 480 °C.
• Mode automàtic: When the hot air gun is placed in its holder, it will cool down below 100°C and then turn off, reducing wear and saving energy.
• Mode manual: The hot air gun continues operating even when placed in its holder, useful for continuous work.

5.4 Estació de desoldar

The desoldering gun provides efficient removal of solder from through-hole components.

1. Interval de temperatura: 380 °C a 480 °C.
2. Preescalfament: Set the desired temperature and allow approximately 3 minutes for preheating. The buzzer will beep when ready.
3. Dessoldar: Cover the solder joint with the nozzle, allow the solder to melt completely, then press the trigger to extract the molten solder.

5.5 Suction Pen

The suction pen utilizes the built-in vacuum motor to assist in lifting larger integrated circuits (ICs) after desoldering with hot air.

• Funcionament: Attach an appropriate suction nozzle to the pen. After heating the IC with the hot air gun until the solder melts, place the suction cup onto the IC and activate the vacuum to lift it.
• Broquets: Various sizes of suction pen nozzles are included to accommodate different component sizes.

6. Manteniment

Regular cleaning and maintenance ensure optimal performance and longevity of your YIHUA 948-II station.

1. Clean Solder Chamber: Regularly clean the solder collection chamber of the desoldering gun to prevent blockages.
2. Clean Filter Spring: Remove and clean the filter spring to maintain proper suction.
3. Neteja de broquets: Use the provided cleaning pins to clear any solder residue from the desoldering nozzles.
4. Clean Vacuum Receptacle: Ensure the vacuum receptacle is free of debris.
5. Soldering Tip Maintenance: Clean the soldering iron tip after each use and re-tin it with a layer of fresh solder to prevent oxidation.

6.1 Cura del broquet

All desoldering nozzles come pre-tinned to protect against oxidation. This is a protective design and does not indicate a blocked nozzle.

1. Turn ON the station and allow it to preheat for approximately 5 minutes.
2. Once preheating is complete, press the desoldering trigger to extract the pre-tinned solder on the nozzle.
3. It is recommended to use the desoldering station at 380-400°C for most applications.
4. Avoid keeping the nozzle on the solder pad for too long when using a high-temperature setting to prevent damaging the pad.

7. Solució De Problemes

Aquesta secció ofereix solucions a problemes comuns que podeu trobar.
