Tip Cleaning procedure using FS-100 Tip Cleaning Paste:
Oxidized tip: 
Re-tinned: 
For optimum performance, use the FS-100 paste in conjunction with the Hakko FT-700 tip polisher for increased oxide removal.
| 1. The suitable temperature for cleaning is around 350℃. | |
| 2. Tin the tip with the chemical paste FS-100 (to remove oxides). |  |
| 3. Wipe out the chemical paste FS-100 left on the tip with a cleaning sponge or cleaning wire. |
 
|
| 4. Feed solder to the tip and see whether or not solder wets on it. |  |
| 5. Repeat the above steps of 2 to 4 until solder wets on the tip surface. | |
| 6. If solder wets on the tip surface again, feed enough solder to cover the tip to prevent oxidation at the end. |  |
