Installation

Before you can start working, the solder reel* must be attached and the tool stand, the soldering iron and the power cord connected to the control unit.

Follow the assembly steps in this P&P Guide.

Note: The solder diameter must match the ALE model purchased. Make sure the solder wire diameter is compatible with the wheels already installed in the ALE control unit.

Tools Needed

*Solder reel is not included.

The required tools are located on the control unit.

Step 1 Solder Reel Assembly
Loosen the reel locking screw (1) and remove the reel locking from the axis (2). Assemble the solder reel onto the axis (3). Assemble the solder reel in such a way - when viewed from above that the solder wire unwinds on the dispensing mechanism side (4). Then pass the solder wire through the wire guidance (5).

Step 2 Reel Locking Assembly
To assemble the reel locking, its conical side must be pointing downwards (1). Make sure that the reel locking screw is slightly backed out and does not collide with the axis (2).

Step 3 Cartridge Assembly
For a safe cartridge assembly/change, make sure that the tool is unplugged and the cartridge has cooled down. Loosen the cartridge set screw (1) and insert the cartidge up to its mark (2). Important: It is essential to insert the cartridge completely for a good connection. Adjust the tip direction (3) and tighten the cartridge set screw (1).

Step 4 Guide Set Assembly

Loosen the guide tube set screw (opposite direction to that indicated on the tool casing) (1) and insert the guide set.
Adjust the guide tube length (2). Leave a gap of 5 to 7 mm (0.197 to 0.276 in) between the tip and the outlet nozzle (3).
If necessary adjust the cartridge tip direction (4) to match the point where the wire will come out. To do this, open the cartridge set screw and tighten it when it is done (5).
Once the guide tube set position is adjusted tighten the guide tube set screw (1).
For a better handling use the clips (6) to band the guide tube and the tool cable together.

Step 9 Solder Wire Unloading

With Solder Wire Perforation

To unload perforated solder wire that has already passed through the guide tube, cut the wire between the wire guidance and the inlet nozzle (1).

To extract the wire out of the tool and the guide tube, hold the tool

on your hand and press

until the wire stops moving forward.

Grasp the wire coming out of the outlet nozzle with a pliers and pull from it until it is completely out.

Without Solder Wire Perforation
When using a kit without solder wire perforation, press until the wire is completely wound to unload the solder wire. It is best to rotate the reel by hand as the wire is being pulled back in order to keep it neatly arranged on the reel.
Or, if preferred, proceed as described above for perforated solder wire unloading.
