5.3 Soldering Tip Maintenance
(1) Before switching off, wipe the tip's soldering side with some solder.
(2) Do not leave the tip in high temperature for long time, which may cause it burn out.
(3) Do not push too hard while soldering, which will damage the tip.
(4) Do not use rough material or files to clean the tip.
(5) If the tip surface is oxidized and makes it hard to apply solder on it, you may use
600-800 grit sandpaper to wipe the tip with Ethanol or lsopropyl alcohol, heat
up to 200°C and apply solder immdeiately to avoid it oxidizing again.
(6) Do not use Flux that contains high chlorine or acid, use only resin based flux.
