5. INITIAL SETUP
A. Iron holder
This product includes two methods for cleaning the
tip: a wire tip cleaner, and a sponge. Please be
sure to soak the sponge in water before using.
1. Set the iron holder.
2. Put the small cleaning sponge in one of the five
holes in the iron holder base.
3. Add water to the iron holder base. The small
sponge will keep the large sponge moist through
capillary action.
4. Wet the large sponge, squeeze it dry and put it
on the iron holder base.

receptacle at the front of the station, and turn it
in a clockwise direction until it stops.
3. Set the iron in the iron holder.
4. Plug the power cord into a grounded wall socket.
CAUTION
Be sure the power switch is OFF before connecting or disconnecting the soldering iron cord. Failure to do so may
result in damage to the circuit board.
