3.3 Installing Pen Tips

To install a pen tip:

1. Ensure the pen is cool and unplugged.
2. Loosen the screw on the pen tip holder by more than 4 mm using the provided screwdriver.
3. Insert the base of the desired pen tip into the copper wire connection, ensuring it goes in at least 8 mm.
4. Tighten the screw firmly to secure the pen tip. A loose connection may prevent proper heating or cause sparking.

Practice on the provided wooden board or scrap material to familiarize yourself with different tips and temperature settings before working on your final project.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning Pen Tips

To maintain optimal performance and extend the life of your pen tips, clean them regularly. When using, the sponge should be soaked in water. Wipe the pen tip with a damp sponge after use to remove dirt and carbon buildup. This ensures maximum effectiveness for the next use.

Important: Always ensure the pen tip has cooled down sufficiently before wiping with a damp sponge to avoid steam burns or damage to the sponge.

5.2 Storage

After use, allow the entire unit and all pens/tips to cool completely. Store the kit in a dry, safe place, away from dust and moisture. Keep all small components, especially the pen tips, organized to prevent loss.

6. Troubleshooting

• Pen Tip Not Heating Up:
  • Ensure the unit is powered on and the correct pen (A or B) is selected via the toggle switch.
  • Check that the pen tip is securely inserted into the copper wire connection and the screw is tightened firmly. A loose connection can prevent proper heating.
  • Verify the temperature setting is appropriate for the desired effect.
• Inconsistent Burning Results:
  • Adjust the temperature setting. Different materials and desired effects require different temperatures.
  • Ensure the pen tip is clean. Buildup can affect heat transfer.
  • Practice on scrap material to find the optimal temperature and pressure for your specific project.
• Sparking at Pen Tip Connection:
  • Immediately power off the unit.
  • Check that the pen tip is inserted correctly and the screw is tightened very firmly. Sparking often indicates a loose connection.
  • If sparking persists after re-securing the tip, discontinue use and contact customer support.
