1. Introduzione
This manual provides essential information for the safe and effective use of your JBC 30ST Soldering Iron. Designed for precision electronic work, this 25W soldering iron features a rapid heating system and is supplied with a durable, heat-resistant R-10D tip.
The JBC 30ST is a versatile tool, ideal for laboratory electronic work and circuit assembly, offering efficient heat utilization and quick temperature recovery.
2. Informazioni sulla sicurezza
Always read and understand all safety warnings and instructions before using this product.
- Sicurezza elettrica: Ensure the soldering iron is connected to a properly grounded power outlet. Do not use with damaged cords or plugs. Disconnect from power when not in use or during maintenance.
- Pericolo di ustione: The soldering iron tip and surrounding metal parts reach very high temperatures (up to 380°C). Always use extreme caution to avoid contact with hot surfaces. Allow the iron to cool completely before storing.
- Inalazione di fumi: Soldering produces fumes. Work in a well-ventilated area or use a fume extractor to avoid inhaling harmful fumes.
- Protezione degli occhi: Indossare sempre occhiali di sicurezza per proteggere gli occhi dagli schizzi di saldatura o dai detriti volanti.
- Superficie di lavoro: Use a heat-resistant work surface. Keep flammable materials away from the soldering area.
- Bambini e animali domestici: Keep the soldering iron out of reach of children and pets.

This image displays the retail packaging for the JBC 30ST Soldering Iron. The box features the JBC logo, website (www.jbctools.com), and product descriptions in multiple languages including English ('Pencil Soldering Iron'), Spanish, French, German, and Italian. The soldering iron itself, with its distinctive blue and black handle and silver tip, is visible on the right side of the packaging. The model number '30 ST' and power '230V-25W' are also printed on the side of the tool.
4. Impostazione
- Disimballaggio: Rimuovere con attenzione tutti i componenti dalla confezione.
- Tip Installation (if not pre-installed): Ensure the soldering iron is unplugged and cool. Gently insert the R-10D tip into the heating element receptacle until it is seated firmly. Do not force it.
- Collegamento elettrico: Plug the three-conductor power cable into a compatible 220V grounded electrical outlet.
- Riscaldamento iniziale: Once plugged in, the soldering iron will begin to heat. It takes approximately 2 minutes and 15 seconds to reach 300°C, with a maximum operating temperature of 380°C.
5. Istruzioni per l'uso
Follow these steps for effective soldering:
- Stagnatura della punta: Before first use and periodically during operation, apply a small amount of solder to the hot tip. This 'tins' the tip, protecting it from oxidation and ensuring efficient heat transfer.
- Cleaning the Tip: Usa l'annuncioamp sponge or brass wool tip cleaner to wipe off excess solder and oxidation from the tip before and after each use.
- Applicazione di calore: Place the clean, tinned tip against both the component lead and the solder pad simultaneously.
- Applying Solder: Once the joint is hot enough (typically a few seconds), apply solder to the opposite side of the joint from the iron. The solder should flow smoothly and quickly around the joint. Do not apply solder directly to the iron tip.
- Removing the Iron: Once the solder has flowed, remove the soldering iron first, then the solder. Allow the joint to cool undisturbed.
- Raffreddare: When finished, unplug the soldering iron and place it in a safe, heat-resistant stand. Allow it to cool completely before handling or storing.
6. Manutenzione
Proper maintenance extends the life of your soldering iron:
- Pulizia della punta: Pulire regolarmente la punta utilizzando un adamp sponge or brass wool. For stubborn oxidation, use a tip tinner/cleaner compound. A well-maintained tip will be shiny and accept solder easily.
- Sostituzione della punta: Replace the tip when it becomes pitted, corroded, or no longer accepts solder easily, even after cleaning and tinning. Ensure the iron is cool and unplugged before changing tips.
- Handle and Cord: Keep the handle clean and free of solder. Inspect the power cord regularly for any signs of damage (cuts, fraying). If damaged, discontinue use and seek professional repair.
- Magazzinaggio: Store the soldering iron in a dry, safe place, away from dust and moisture, once it has completely cooled.
7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| Il saldatore non si riscalda. | No power; Faulty heating element. | Check power outlet and cable connection. If still not heating, contact JBC support. |
| La saldatura non si scioglie o non scorre bene. | Tip is oxidized or dirty; Insufficient heat transfer. | Clean and re-tin the tip. Ensure the tip is making good contact with the joint. |
| Tip turns black quickly. | Tip is not tinned; Running too hot; Using incorrect solder. | Always tin the tip. Ensure proper soldering technique. Use good quality solder. |
| Solder joints are dull or brittle. | Cold joint (insufficient heat); Movement during cooling. | Ensure components and pads are heated sufficiently. Do not move the joint until solder has solidified. |
