Thank you for your purchase of the
DIG
SC7000 high-performance desoldering tool as one of your auxilary service
instwments. We hope that the use of our quality product will give you satisfaction for years to come. To get the
maximum performance from
you!
instrument we suggest
that
you
note
the following instructions before operating
the tool. This basic technical Sheet will help you to better understand the features. advantages. and maintenance
necessary to keep your instrument
functioninu
efficiently.

Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. Then set power switch, located on the bottom
of
handgrip,
to
“ON” position and allow instrument to warm up for a few minutes.
IhlTE:
a) When
the
instrument is operated the first time fumes may develop in the area of the heater holder. This
is normal and is caused by the protective coating burning off of the healing element.
b)
Check the filter cartridge
for
proper position and direction.
Set the temperature control knob to Suit the application. for standard desoldering procedures, it is advisable
to choose a position between
38OC
and
4ODC:
when working on
multilayer
P.C.B
applications the most
satisfactory results will be obtained at temperatures ranging from
42OC
to
45OC.

remove
the solder around any lead-wire of a given components. simply place the bore of the desoldering
tool
tip
over
the wire-end, insert and at the time the solder around it melts, gently pull the
vacuum
trigger
switch to allow the pump
to
suck the molten compound away.
The removed Solder will gradually accumulate in the filter cartridge and may be wnoved with tweezers,
when the felt in the filter cartridge becomes dirty the suction effect of the system will decrease. it is
recommended that the filter cartridge be changed when between
One-fourth
and one-half of the filter
shows
a build up of impurities.
If the
bore
of the desoldering tip becomes clogged with flux and/or solder and causes a decrease in suction
performance it is necessary then to
cleaf
the channel in a
ha&d
condition. using the cleaning pin set.
Note:
The instrument is delivered with a cleaning pin
set
composed of 3 different pin
diameters
to
be used
accoring
to desoldering tip sizes. Each Size has a long and a
shut
pin. Use the short pin first, then
followed by the
longer
pin.
After a working session, clear the bore
of
any flux and!or solder residuals after that. set the operating mode
switch
to the hot-air-blow position and clear tip completely. Your tool will
now
be ready to proceed with your
next
lob.
The hooking hole may be used to hang the
too,
in a counter weighted position for permanent desoldering
otxration.

using wench supplied.
b)
Replace the desoldering cartridge with the special hot-air cartridge.
c)
Set the vacuum/hot-air

The hot-air flow rate can be adjusted with the switch lever.

Depending on the nature
of
the desoldering work and the
size
of the component. the temperature
control
should be set at the appropriate level.

Never attempt
to
wash or rinse a dirty filter in any kind volatile Solvent. as this may decrease the
performa
of the instrument and may
piesent
an explosive hazard.
To avoid damage to heating element (from thermal shock)
never
use waler or any other coolant on
hea
section or tip.
Excessive
shock
and vibration
to
the instrument itself may also damage the heating element.
Al&r

advisable, any flawed or deformed parts should be replaced.
The desoldering looI-stad
(STEOO)
should be used in
conjunctlon
with your instrument. This particular
st,
has been designed to maximize the performance and life of your SC7000 desoldering tool.
